The room was very nice and the staff was friendly. The problem was the view. I asked for a panoramic ocean view. I paid almost $300 for the room and I got a panoramic view of the street with a peekaboo view of the ocean.
Perfect, little hotel within a quick walking distance to the Boardwalk, Pier, and beaches. Room was spacious and everything appeared updated. Would stay here again!
Very dog friendly. We could easily walk to the beach, boardwalk, restaurants, and wharf.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
This place was cute but overpriced. The location was excellent but the parking situation was not great and there was not great communication about it either. The rooms are cute clean and comfortable however there are no other perks no pool hot tub or any other amenities. Walkable to everything downtown though, so that’s a big plus. Not sure if I would stay here again but it was fine for a night.
