I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The location is superb, just steps away from the ocean and a short walk to the boardwalk and many restaurants. The rooms were spotless and cozy, complete with a convenient air conditioning unit near the bed. The service was top-notch, especially the efficient housekeeping. The dining options included tasty vegetarian and vegan dishes. While the facilities were good, I found the price a bit on the higher side for the value offered.
