    Pros +

    • A block from the beach.
    • Really liked the privacy. We had a Kung room on the first floor (Rm 1) and felt like we were at our own little getaway. Staff is very pleasant and there were LOTS of helpful amenities available. We will definitely stay here again.
    • Location was excellent. Check in and check out was easy. Room was sufficient.

    Cons -

    • No AC in the room.The hallway at midnight was seventy six degrees and cooler in the hallway then the room. Just had a ceiling fan and one isolating fan. No parking.I parked in the grass at the end of the parking lot and got a sixty three dollar ticket.
    • Shower was much smaller than expected. Bed wasn¿t the most comfortable but it was okay.
    • Yes we had to leave early because no parking place and we were going to be towed after we paid a lot for our room . Do to fireworks and boardwalk they took out parking place at our hotel. We are still not happy about it .

    That it was located close to beach and boardwalk!

    Our room was perfect. So close to the beach and everything else. The room was very clean. There was a nice coffee and tea bar outside our room. It was stocked with everything. They even had toothpaste & toothbrushes. Of course my husband forgot his.

    10KarenPosted on: 7-21-2022

    Our room was clean! We were in close proximity to everything we needed, so we were able to park our car in front and we walked everywhere we went. It wasn't noisy. And I felt safe.

    No. None of the extras that large chain hotels offer, outweighed the things that are important to me and is cleanliness and peace of mind.

    I liked the location to the beach and restaurants. The hotel was dog friendly and set up for them. The staff was extremely friendly and courteous to everyone. They had coffee/tea available at all times, with snacks too. Balcony rooms small.

    Balcony rooms were small but did enjoy being able to step outside. Not enough seating in the room.

    10SuePosted on: 9-6-2017

    Location was perfect on the strip. Room was small and homely.

    Bathroom was smaller than expected but it served its purpose.

    10BrookePosted on: 7-8-2016

    Hotel Employees were excellent hosts. I was treated like family. The best part was all of the friends I made on the front porch. And I loved that you can have pets. I will be back. Brooke W Christopher Frankfort Kentucky.

    Absolutely not!

    My wife could not breathe in the pet friendly room. Previous dog odors bothered her tremendously. The bed was comfortable. Typical beach town room smells. Some guests are more sensitive to the odors than others. Lice and learn.

    Good location to everything.

    Room looked very clean. Staff was easy to communicate with. However, we weren’t able to stay the night due to the fact that the door wasn’t able to open didn’t, it was up against the bed. This problem made our trip end before it began. We were promised a refund due to this rather troublesome situation. Hope we get refunded.

    8LesliePosted on: 1-19-2026

    The location was close to the boardwalk and all the restaurants. Walking distance to the beach. It was a quiet area as well.

    The room was quite small. It could use a bigger refrigerator and at least a griddle skillet to make food.

    7DannyPosted on: 1-19-2026

    Great location, very clean, nice balcony, complimentary coffee bar and thoughtful extras.

    Small room, thw door couldn’t open fully, the front door hit the fridge and the balcony door hit the bed. The shower was very small.

    3VidyawattiePosted on: 1-19-2026

    Great location to the beach and all dining/shopping

    Very uncomfortable, I woke up with back pains, both nights that I slept there, the bathroom was very tiny especially the shower

    10AnitaPosted on: 1-19-2026

    Location was great. It was a peaceful night. Everyone respected the rules of the Inn. Very convenient to everything. Will definitely stay again.

    Maybe offer some muffins for breakfast but wasn’t necessary.

    10CarlosPosted on: 1-19-2026

    So easy to check in. Self service coffee in the morning No one bothered you have your own parking and it was perfect close to the beach and a bunch of restaurants and bars
