The stay was very nice except for the fact we had to change rooms after we had settled in due to heater not working. No credit for that. Book your stay directly through the property website. DO NOT BOOK THRU HOTELS.com/EXPEDIA!!! unless you wish to spend an extra $75./night

My 10 star review

The staff was super sweet. Extremely accommodating. The room was spotless. The staff met you with a smile and asked if they could do anything for you. And even though there was a hicup with the hot water they did everything to make it right i give them 10 stars..

Disliked: Amenities
Our stay was great, but the amenities can use some work. We had a three beds but only two blankets. (No blanket for the pull out couch.) There was only two rolls of toilet paper and 2 set of towels for the weekend. It was stated that there were laundry detergent/pods. However we did not find any. The parking space was small. There is only one parking spot for the whole suite. We had to use public parking and pay the fees. However, the room itself was great and had a beautiful view. The shared community area was great with many activities and the free bike rental system was easy to use and enjoyable. Overall, it is a cheap, but comfortable stay. Just the amenities needs an improvement.

Got NO sleep at night - Nice room - good location

The property was really nice. Close to beach and downtown Surf City. Customer service was excellent and quick. I would give it 5 stars, but we did not get a good nights sleep the whole time we stayed there. We did not hear any noise from rooms on either side of us, but above (ceiling) noise was horrible. We were on the 1st floor above parking. It sounded like a constant herd of elephants passing over our bed every night. I spoke to the rental agency who takes care of the property (BlueStar Real Estate) about it and they said that they had received other complaints about this noise problem in our building. They also said that the new building that was just finished down the street from the one where we stayed had resolved the issue for noise above and below the rooms which is good news. BlueStar Real Estate also told us that if we had called early in our visit, they could have moved us, but I am not sure that it would have helped since the noise problem was throughout the building. I recommend renting in the new building if possible or taking ear plugs just in case for staying in older building. Also, some minor issues that we did not have a problem with, but others might: no closet in room or clothes washer/dryer. They do have a dresser in the room for clothing. Wonderful full kitchen as well.

Great stay for our family beach vacation. Our suite was roomy for the five of us. Easy beach access. Washer and dryer unit was amazing. Kitchen appliances very nice. Beds were comfortable except the pull out (but pull outs are never comfy). Enjoyed the ping pong table. There was even cornhole and connect four. Pool access nearby but we didnt feel the need to use. Close enough to food and fun but far enough to be quiet. Safe and convenient. Would definitely stay again and recommend

Room was spotless with complete modern kitchen and bath. Nice short walk to the beach! Only issue I had was upstairs neighbors were beyond loud!! Asked for help because got woken up at 4am and 630am with kids running, jumping, and lord knows what else was going on up there. If I was to stay again I would get a 3rd floor to avoid this.
