Stayed at the hotel for a few nights with friends and it was great. The location was ideal, parking was easy, the room was good and the hotel operator was very accomodating. I highly recommend it if you are staying in the area.

Close and "good enough"
We arrived in the middle of the night for an event around the corner the next day. The attendant was professional and didn't seem to mind being woken up at 1:30 a.m.
We didn't expect much. The room was fine. It was clean and serviceable. The bathroom is small. The beds were dated. However, everything was "good enough." The room did not distract us from our purpose, which is all we asked.

It is Seaside Heights. The gentleman in the front was very nice. We went from Point Beach to here and what a culture shock. The floor had a stickiness to it. I should have read the reviews better. It was an experience. It was probably as clean as they could get it.

The bathrooms were very small and pool wasn’t very big but for the cost of the 2 rooms and a half block from the Boardwalk it was a good deal. I’d stay there again.
