Not worth the price point. Yes you are right at the boardwalk, but the hotel is extremely outdated, dirty, very noisy and I felt unsafe going to my car in the parking garage alone. The pool and hot tub were disgusting. The bottom and sides were complete slime, there was debris floating in the hot tub. I got some kind of rash after going in. The staff are very friendly, but I feel like I got ripped off.

Room smelled like a really smelly wet dog. Opened balcony door and had to sit outside and the smell was so bad I could smell it outdoors. Had door open for over 3 hours. And was still really bad. I will say the room was clean and they had plenty of towels
