My son and I really enjoyed our stay. We were in an oceanfront room, so it looked like it had been updated. The hotel is definitely older, but the staff made up for that. Beds are comfy and the we didn't hear much noise from the hallwaysThe view is absolutely incredible, and I enjoyed having coffee out on the balcony every morning. It's also right on the boardwalk, so we walked up to Wicked Tuna for happy hour. I loved that the beach is literally steps away, AND you have access to all pools in both buildings. We didn't eat at the restaurant so I can't comment on that. If you're looking for a budget hotel with a great view, this is it. If you're looking for a fancy hotel when all the bells and whistles, look elsewhere.
