Hotel stay was good. Definitely book top floors for view. The rooms are good and beds are comfortable. We book top floor which had 2 rooms. The view was really awesome day or night. You can feel the wind and listen the ocean from the bed or balcony. We can quickly get in- out of rooms if we are enjoying the day at the beach. Internet is but downside, but if your TV is not connecting try unplug, wait for 3 mins and plug it back again.

I came for 5 nights and Shay gave me the best service. I saw her running to make sure everyone is good and gets the best service that she can give. I hope and pray that they keep her and she gets a raise. She is by far the best I have experienced as far as customer service. She makes the stay very pleasant and stress free. She goes above and beyond to service all guests and makes sure that everyone has a great experience. If she leaves then I will stay elsewhere and so will other past guest and I will make sure future guest goes wherever she goes. I will be back as long as she stays. I see that she is all over the reviews….

Very pleased with our stay. Friendly and accommodating staff . Only housekeeping service upon request. Not daily. Unless you tell them you want it. But very nice place to stay. Would stay here again. Very convenient to the beach and a cleaning area for when you return from the beach. Great working air conditioner. Refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker.

Went for an early family vacation. We were greeted with a smile by Shay. She was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The hotel was very clean and the entire staff was friendly and helpful. I will definitely be back and I recommend this as a great place to stay. Great price, great location and great staff. Thanks Shay, you’re the best.

Stayed here for 3 nights. I was in a two queen room with the ocean view. The room itself was spacious, the fridge is an actual full size fridge, which was nice to have room for all of our drinks and leftovers. There was a tortilla chip under the couch, and when walking around Barefoot my feet got dirty because the floors were not completely cleaned. Also there was dust on the table that you eat on. Otherwise it was a very convenient location not far from the boardwalk, and steps away from the beach. Some of the front desk staff are a little iffy and don't it seem like they do not want to be there. I specifically called down and spoke to a woman and she told me that I could leave my food in a mini fridge until I was able to come back and get it since we already had checked out, and when I got down there the front desk guy did not know who or what I was talking about. She also told me that I would be able to park my car there until at least midnight of that day we checked out and he told me that was not true. Just the overall lack of communication when it comes to that. Otherwise it was a good stay. Oh, also there was a strong smell of marijuana coming from one of the rooms on our floor. For it to be a non-smoking hotel I think that it should be enforced

Everything was great! The room was clean, and updated! Everyone we dealt with at the front desk was extremely nice and accommodating! We loved being so close to the beach and enjoyed sitting on the balcony every night! The pool was extremely clean and all of the house keepers were extremely nice and kept everything clean! We will definitely be back. Thank you!

Nicely done remodel. Very clean and fresh. No adverse smells, stains, or broken items. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Bring eye masks as the balcony lights can't be turned off and keep the room bright at night, Overall great place and highly recommended.

we love this hotel and often use the rooms as overflow for guests when we have too many people visiting our condo just one block away. as many of the reviewers have pointed out, this property underwent a significant renovation in 2024 and it really does look great. the retro-surf vibe is awesome. for the owners: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE replace the jarringly bright exterior bulbs on the oceanfront balconies. as another reviewer mentioned, the bulbs are really too bright to enjoy sitting on the balcony at night. the brightness disrupts normal human "night vision" to the point that you cant really see the stars or appreciate the moonlight dancing on the waves.
