I can't believe these negative comments from people who stayed here. I find this Hotel so charming and the people who run it could not be nicer. Is it modern? Of Course not, that's part of it's charm. I love sitting on the wrap around porch. You can't beat the prices. I can't wait to come back this year!

If you have a family and have positive experience renting a weekly beach home, don't go here - even for a night. This place is just adequate if you're looking to stay over night. Don't expect a quiet, convenient get away. We spent one night here because some friends booked it for us for our short stay. Our friends did... More

We acknowledge that its tough for a century old hotel to compete with newer seashore hotels, and that occassionally we may miss some things , but your response is totally misleading. You cite a previous stay of 13 years ago, Really? We didn't own the place back then and instead of taking the easy way out and tearing the building... More

This is an old building and has seen better days. The beds are doubles and not the most comfortable (OK for our two kids to share, but tight for my 6'3" husband and me). There are A/C units in the rooms and a small fridge. The cost is cheap and you get what you pay for, so with that said,... More

I was nervous coming here after reading the reviews, and I honestly expected the worst, which is why I was pleasantly surprised. It was older and not sparkling clean, but my room was not dirty. The staff was all very friendly and helpful. The place is very close to the boardwalk and beach, and there is even a great frozen... More

LConwell, you were spot on. Stayed just last week. I saw the positive reviews and took the bad with a grain of salt. I was there with my kids so we didn't need anything fancy, just a home base for a couple of days at the beach. The room was small (22) -- that was ok, but the beds were... More

When I booked the hotel, there were only a couple of reviews on this place, and they were both favorable. As my trip got closer, I checked again, and it had negative reviews. I know there are always some people who are just never happy, so I thought I'd see for myself. The bad reviews were spot on. We had... More

I feel the hotel website gives an accurate representation of the property. This is a late 1800's property where the ghost of it's historic charm can be seen in the many times painted moldings, staircase, door knobs and hardware (unfortunately, painted over). It is probably too cost prohibitive to do a full restoration, so the owners have spiffed everything up... More

Thanks. We took your suggestion and have replaced the majority of the bedding in the hotel. Even replaced full beds with new queen beds with thicker more luxurios padding. Planning on replacing the pillows too before we open for 2013. More

I stayed in room 17 for a Friday night in early August 2012. My total with tax was $167. The lobby is charming with a flat screen tv and eating area. Even though I only stayed one night I was able to use a beach tag for a $20 refundable deposit, other hotels require a two or three night stay... More

Thanks for your suggestions. Over the winter, we have done a number of upgrades including larger bed sizes and better quality bedding. Most rooms now have flat screen TV's. We have reserved the four or five smaller rooms for walkin guests only and have removed them from our online booking system. More

The most disgusting hotel I ever stayed in. dirty. moldy. Just horrible. The bathroom had black and brown ALL over the tub shower. Mattresses were horrible. Nothing in room...not even a clock. Hallways were just nasty. Please stay elsewhere if you have kids.
