“What stands out is the really friendly, family-run atmosphere and how close it is to the boardwalk with plenty of places to eat nearby; plus they're happy to accommodate with things like extra pillows. While the rooms could use some updating, they provide the basics and a clean place to sleep. If you're passing through and don't plan on spending much time in the room, it's a decent option.”
