8/10 Good
"Location was amazing - right on the boardwalk where it wasn’t too busy. Also right next to an entrance to the beach, where the water was not super far away. Very convenient with a baby, toddler and dog. The biggest minus was no elevator/ramp to get to the rooms, so not stroller or wagon friendly at all. It was a big hassle to get up and down. Room was tiny, but pretty clean."
