The complimentary breakfast was ok .I expected hot meal like egg . Sausage , waffle , oatmeal but nothing like that. Just coffee. Bar and muffin , bagel . Cleanliness and smells good in the room .
The Hotel and staff were great just the other ppl who were staying at the hotel at breakfast time selfishly took more food than they needed leaving nothing for
The worst part of our experience with this hotel was the check-in. It was the least professional experience I have ever had. The clerk was talking on the phone with a friend while a movie or TV show was playing on another device all throughout the check-in process, so no attention was given to us as customers besides asking for an ID. Subsequent phone call to front desk was unanswered. Facilities and room were of average cleanliness. Breakfast starting at 8 was too late for our travel needs, and there was no coffee/tea maker in the room. Would not recommend to anyone.
Very quiet place, Walmart just crossing the street the beach just 15-20 minutes away, the hotel rooms are clean,the bed very confortable and easy check In and Out.
Lots of restaurants that are walkable. Rooms were very clean and the employees at the front desk were very friendly. I took off the star because the air conditioner wasn’t as strong as I wish it was and also please be careful in the bathtub as it is extremely slippery when showering. We had to put a towel down so we wouldn’t slip and fall.

A quick glance the hotel is nice. It's clean and simple. Front desk clerk had to reassign our room. We were originally in 240 and the mattress was beyond horrible. When you sat on at you went straight down completely to the platform. They switched us to 243 and those beds were acceptable. Really wish the rooms had queen size beds instead of double beds. Save the time and go to McDonald's for breakfast.
I highly recommend staff was very nice and welcoming well kept very clean room smell fresh and clean hotel so convenient next to Walmart restaurants gas stations and many more I give it a 5 * planing to book soon with my family thank you
The property was clean. The room that we rented was clean. The shower wasn’t all that great but the bathroom was clean. There was no microwave in the rooms. Using the microwave on the floor was inconvenient and really dirty. We seen a pool on site, but it was really small. Overall, it’s the best one outside Atlantic City if you are not staying on the Beach. Conveniently located 15 minutes from AC.
Staff was veey friendly, as to answer any questions, and quick to have us obtain our room in a short period of time. I would definitely recommend as to go back to that hotel.
