We came for an overnight and upon check in were offered a free upgrade which was great. The two gentlemen at the front desk were very welcoming. One brought me to see where the room was located and the other showed me where to park my larger sized vehicle. We were on the third floor. I sat outside and watched as the sun set. The sky was gorgeous. Since it was a one night stay in September, we didn’t bring our bathing suits, but I wish I had. The pool looked relaxing. The king sized bed was very comfortable. The location of the Inn was perfect for a walk to the beach. If we are in the area again, I would love to stay here.
Loved how close it was to the beach. The room was okay, bathtub was disgusting. For 1 night stay it was okay.

Great place , very close to the beach and boardwalk. Clean rooms and friendly staff. If you book a kitchenette do not forget to bring pots and pans to cook ...
No toilet paper . WiFi didn’t work. No one to answer if you need anything from 10 pm-8am and the huge jet bathtub which is the only good thing about the 300 dollar tiny room was broken. Was offered another night on them and then ignored for two weeks and still being ignored.

No towels until requested, no tissues, no phone, no table lamp, door lock was tricky. There was a lot of trampling noise from the stairs and walk outside until 4 am.

The man at the front desk was kind and funny upon checking us in. The door to the room was definitely unsafe in terms of locking. The door also face the pool and the curtains weren’t blackout so any passerby could have glimpsed us in some peculiar positions like getting out of the shower etc. some quick changes could include adding blackout curtains, add a small cheap stand to the bathroom to place toiletries and wash cloths, consider including two bottles of inexpensive water in the rooms. To increase luxury they could add memory foam toppers to the mattress to increase comfort.
Hotel room was clapped. Beds were terrible. The kitchen cupboards were falling off hinges. Just all in all crappy room for price. AC worked good and close walk to beach but all in all probably wouldn’t stay here again.
The stairs felt really weird, they sink in a bit and are a trip hazard. My wife tripped and fell down them badly while holding our 2 year old and they wouldn’t let us file an incident report
The room was dirty, tub was disgusting, carpet filthy, visible stains on the comforter, towels stained, old and rough. Had a cheap trashy motel feel to it. NEVER AGAIN!

The room was less than desirable . It did work for the weekend, but certainly not an up kept place. The cupboard door fell off, the floor was slimy, the bed had hair in it.
Outdoors was trashed
