The staff made our late check in easy and were very accommodating/communicative during our arrival. The suite was perfect for our short stay, and location is only a short walk or drive to the boardwalk. Everything was great!

They initially claimed it had a partial ocean view, but then I received a message offering a better room for an extra $25. I agreed, but it seems that meant no ocean view at all, which was disappointing. I suspect this is a tactic to lure customers.ars they had a better room for me so i said ok but i guess that meant no view of the ocean kinda dissappointed i imagine its a wY to lur clients
