It was a nice stay though the room was not what you would expect at the price point. Two of the walls were in need of repairs, windows needed some cleaning, coffee in room was a kettle with tea like bags of coffee that tasted awful, and bathroom had pretty much nothing in it.

Close to beach. Ground level beach access rooms. Grounds need to be picked-up a bit. Centrally located along boardwalk.
