The Hotel was mostly pleasant and maintained though you could see it has been around for a while. They, like many hotels, have a daily resort fee and parking is $50 per day.
The hallways to the rooms were dimly lit with tiny spotlights, like in some sci-fi movie. Coupled with the choice of dark brown, black, and gold for carpeting didn’t convey a friendly fun atmosphere.
They have an on prem restaurant which we decided to give a try. It’s an Italian themed venue. The waitress was very good, and the tomato sauce /gravy was fantastic! But they did not have their S#7t together.
We ordered 2 glasses of a “House” cabernet that took 25 minutes to arrive at the table. 25 mins?? The waitress explained they were out of that and had to run out to the store and purchase some. Again… huh??
After the appetizers we waited another 35 min for our simple order or chicken parmesan. We were told that they forgot to put our order into the kitchen. The chicken was burnt, and they also had used very thin cut cutlets which had turned to leather. Now we were told they had a new chef who was not up to speed. Again… Huh??
When we got check(s) we were present with a separate one from the bar for the wine. $14 per glass for “House” cab. The bill said it was Josh Cellars Reserve. “House cab”??
So Hotel is OK, …. The restaurant…. Not at all.

Ok I like to give my reviews as pros & cons
Pros:
Location, close to beach & boardwalk across the street, spacious if dated room, cool AC, amenities like the pool, patio areas, ping pong tables, pool table, friendly front desk staff, dog friendly, comfy beds & lots pillows, clean, adequate storage space

Cons:
Loud even on top floor very late at night, very loud hallways very late at night (I think they get a lot of wedding parties), bathrooms are tiny & awkward, sinks are sooo low & don’t drain, no fridge or microwave in room which you would expect at this price point, not even a coffee maker but there is free coffee in the morning at the cafe, $70 for our small SUV to park which is kind of ridiculous after summer season is over (would be expected in season tho), dog friendly can get annoying with all barking, cafe doesn’t make food to order, things are premade & I received 2 stale croissants, make other breakfast plans which is a pain!!!

All in all, I would not stay here again at this price point but would consider it at a lower price in the future, however not excited to come back.

Staff was very friendly, room was clean and updated, location is perfect, dinner was very good! Pool was a bit over crowded but it was 90 degrees and sunny on holiday weekend, cool bar at the pool made up. Great stay
