This was one of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed at, all things considered. I was there for the final day of my vacation, which was a Monday. That meant that the Boardwalk was almost completely deserted during the daytime hours. Surprisingly, there was not much more activity after dark, although the restaurants that were open did have steady business. More than three of the restaurants were closed. The hotel itself was very comfortable - cozy, I would say. Very tastefully decorated throughout and I am sorry I didn't stay here sooner, as I have been visiting this area for at least 20 years.

The Inn is older but well kept. Minor issues but no real problems. Disappointed that there was very limited shopping but the restaurants are amazing.

Regular rooms are small
Hotel was nice enough, old and chipping but ok. Rooms are small and tight. We took the family for my daughter's 11th birthday so there were 4 of us and it was so cramped. Only 1 lounge chair - no couch, and 2 dining chairs, barely any walking around room. I don't think they want you to stay in the room.
