Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is in a lovely location, facing the water springs and close to nice restaurants. The rooms need updating, with a slight issue of a musty smell from the air conditioning, but the private balcony adds a nice touch. The service is good, offering convenient laundry facilities and a free shuttle service. The location is convenient, right across from the Tanger Outlets and near the boardwalk. The dining experience is satisfactory, with delicious prime steaks. Overall, a decent hotel with some room for improvement.
This hotel is a gem with its clean and comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and great location near various attractions. The dining experience could use some improvement, but overall, it offers a good value for money.
