An excellent place to stay only 2 streets back from the boardwalk and an easy walk into all of the shops and dining areas. Nice rooms not luxurious but more than adequate for a holiday. Great pool BBQ area. Would definitely stay there again.

Arrived to room and found it to be very dated and could barely get the air con to work. Room wasn’t clean and found bed bugs on arrival. Left room to stay in another hotel for 4 nights instead and got a full refund. Sam the manger was good to deal with.
