Rented this place to stay for a week with my family, we had two senior citizens, one infant and a toddler with us. To start off, I want to advise everyone that the bathroom situation is very interesting. There are two facilities, one contains a sink and toilet and the other two showers and a sink. Meaning, there is only one toilet in the whole place. As we had 5 adults and two kids, we were quite worried that this would not work out and almost booked an additional motel room nearby. But since the toilet was separate from the showers, it turned out only to be a minor nuisance. The place is situated very well, only half a block from the board walk and beach and a block from Casino Pier, rides, etc. Only a block from Breakwater beach water park, which was super fun and clean. And since you are a block away, you save on parking and can come home for lunch and go back out. John was a good host, he was there when we got there and gave us beach badges and parking passes. He did get slightly frustrated with us that first day but then was a fine host. Very responsive when we had issues, like the Roku didn't work for half the week. It didn't get fixed, but no big deal. A good thing about this place was that he provides linens, which was really nice since our car was full. But no pillows.
Other interesting issues was there was a large hole in the wall by the front door. He only told us he knew about it and we were not responsible for it. And we tried to open the window by the front door and it fell down on us. But otherwise the kitchen and bathrooms seem pretty newly renovated. There was a slight urine odor from the shower bathroom, not sure why. Warning the bedrooms are very small, they basically fit a bed and not much else. But the common areas were adequate for hanging out. In the living room is a large L shaped sofa that was quite comfy that could become a sofabed, although we didn't try it. There was also a sunroom just outside the living room. There is also a narrow balcony you can sit on and watch the water park. There are several adirondack chairs provided. The stairs going down from the wood balcony are narrow, so if you have people with disabilities, this would pose an issue. Also the roof kept leaking water onto the bottom of the stairs and was quite uncomfortable as you were showered with water every time you left the place and also the bottom steps were slippery. Not sure how that issue will be addressed.
