Hotel was mediocre enough, but the room we stayed in likely had bed bugs as we noticed we had taken some back home with us after. We've tried to deduce where else they may have come from, but no other visited locations make sense.

I wasn’t pleased this stay. The front desk wasn’t friendly as they were last year. Also for the price you should still have continental breakfast. Not happy

The room was small for the modern style furniture but it was clean and quiet. Easy access to the boardwalk. Staff didnt make us aware of the muffins and coffee we just happened to over hear them informing the next customer as we entered the elevator.

The clerk was not at the front desk at check in. We had to call a phone number that was left at the desk and she would come down. We stayed out of season so the area was like a ghost town so that's prb why. Hotel was clean and quiet.
