I just got back from a night stay and I have to say I'm glad it was only one night. The room is small and had a smell. The ceiling looks like it falling and the air conditioner blew out chunks of dirt. My husband hated it so much he was willing to lose our money and go somewhere else. More

Give it Up!! What a great way to start a constructive review? Or is this simply and angry person having a very bad day!

The hotel is a short walk to the beach and boardwalk. On Thursday nights, you can even see the fireworks from your room.... More

Thankfully the reviews I read are a couple of years old and the rooms have all been renovated recently. We even had a fridge and microwave. Bathrooms are... More
