Clean, great value hotel, the location was cool so close to boardwalk a downtown shopping and shops and the park. The rooms were non-smoking, extremely pleasant where nice beds are comfy, ideal for us. Though the bed in our room was very uncomfortable, we loved the venue.

Well, Wi-Fi signal was very weak.
