Guests consistently praised the hotel's excellent location, with many highlighting its proximity to the beach, shops, and restaurants. The service was frequently described as friendly and helpful, with special mentions for staff members at breakfast and the front desk. Breakfast offerings were generally appreciated, though a few guests noted room for improvement.

Pros (+) Room looked nice, great location to the boardwalk, housekeeping staff was very friendly and helpful. We loved the free kayaks! That is the main reason we picked this hotel.
Cons (-) The floor in our room was very dirty. Our feet turned black when we walked across it.

Pros (+) Location was great.
Cons (-) The pool doesn’t open until 9 am... this is way too late. Paddle board and kayak sign outs doesn’t start until 9 and there aren’t enough. The continental breakfast was rather bad. Food was stale and not enough protein. Consider adding eggs and/or more meat. Fix that damn waffle iron.

Cons (-) The bed and pillows could've been more comfortable. The toilet in the bathroom also kept on running and the fan didn't work.
