Pros (+) Clean hotel right on the water. Fall asleep with the sounds of waves crashing on the waves below. Nice little happy hour with cheese, crackers & wine. Comfortable beds & spacious bathroom with a separate toilet closet. We had the King bed and a twin rollout. Kids (7 & 9) shared the rollout- they were so tired from playing all night at the Boardwalk that they didn't even whine about their proximity...
Cons (-) Loved everything! Can't wait to return!
