You are not allowed to control the thermostat in the room. We were told the entire hotel is on one system and the thermostat is locked. You cannot switch between AC and Heat. You can lower and raise the temp in the room, but it didn’t work in ours. Room got as hot as 80 in the middle of the night.

A true classic!
This was a magnificent experience. Took my with and daughters for a quick birthday getaway and although the beach was a bit cold and windy, the hotel was a great place to spend our time with a classy throwback Jersey vibe. AND the staff were great!! We will be back!

Fantastic location
Nice hotel with a great location. We walked the beach and little pier without issues. The kids loved the pool although it was certainly not heated as advertised. We didn't eat at the restaurant bc it was pricey. The staff were fantastic, parking was easy, room was clean and my daughter appreciated the day bed rather than the normal pull out couch. The only negative was the mattresses were soo hard. We would stay again.

Regina,Thank you for your comprehensive review and positive comments. Please let us know when you are here if there is anything more that we can do to accommodate your comfort. The pool is heated, and we are happy to check on that. We also could have provided a mattress topper if that would have been preferable. We are glad that you will stay with us again in the future.

The staff were very friendly. I loved that the location was blocks from the boardwalk making it easy to get to but far enough away that it wasn’t too noisy. The room was clean and the balcony had a great view of the beach. The only con was that the bathroom was very small. There was only a pedestal sink which left no counter space to get ready. We adjusted.

Laura,We appreciate your feedback. Thank you. We will consider your comment about needing more "counter space" in that bathroom. In the unit with the King bed for two people, there is a vanity area outside the bathroom. Some of the units have a larger bathroom. Thanks again.

The pool was beautiful with many lounge chairs and the entire property was clean, The restaurant on the premises was excellent with friendly staff. We encountered a few issues upon check-in but staff resolved them. Being handicapped, elevator access is important to me but the set-up of the elevators there is not the best but we made do, No ice machines on the guest floors and you had to go down to the basement to get ice. Most of the staff were friendly and accommodating. Overall I would rate this property 3-1/2 out of 5. I would return again but request in advance certain things specific to my needs.
