Not enough parking, Had to park a block and a half away. Internet did not work. Room was not as nice as those pictured, had basic necessities only. No decor. Staff was very nice. Price was fair.

All the staff and people we interacted with were kind and helpful. Room was clean and in a convention location close to the beach and downtown. Everything was within walking distance.

Some rooms are decent, others are damp and musty. The first room the bedding was damp to the touch from the humidity and the shower had hair all over, however the front desk staff gave us a new room with no questions.

Last minute two day trip. Convenient location, very walkable to beach and boardwalk, as well as shopping in Asbury. It was nice having a room with a kitchenette and mini fridge.

Parking is always very tight. Rooms could stand some updates. Bedding seriously needs to be updated. I new quality mattress would have made this review higher rated. We have stayed here several times and it’s not bad for the price. Our room had a very tight bathroom and no lighting in the very dark tiny shower stall.
