"I thought the breakfast was a great option. I thought the amenities were lacking though. No disposable shower caps or hand lotions. No free parking $19/day for valet parking. But the hotel was in a good walking distance to downtown and the boardwalk, if you like walking. Not many restaurants close by though. The special noodle house was good but expensive for what you got. "

"Our stay at this hotel was great! Our first floor room was very spacious and was well-stocked with everything we needed except body lotion. We would have loved another outlet or two (one on each side of each bed would have been great; one bed did not have an outlet on one side) and drawers vs. shelves for storing clothing would have been even better, but overall I have nothing bad to say. The fitness center was extremely clean and there was lots of equipment available, and I especially loved...
