Central location able to walk to downtown every day, room was incredibly clean, the staff was so friendly and extremely helpful (they knew what shuttle we should take better than the folks working the bus stop lol), was great to have parking as well (and no issue getting a spot!) will definitely be back!

Property is conveniently located off Rt 3 and it is a very leisurely 5-7 minute walk to the main strip and harbor area so no need to drive if you don't want to. Rooms are clean and well kept, queen bed was very comfortable. Free ice and water refill station in check in area are convenient and much appreciated. Ladies that keep the check in desk are very friendly and will offer recommendations for food and activities. Rooms are relatively quiet considering proximity to the main road. Worth it for the convenience. Would love to stay here again!

Best stat ever

The stay was incredible! The room was great and the staff was incredible! I can’t say enough about the staff truly. Everything was a really easy walking distance from our room which saved us a ton for parking. Go to Jordan’s right down the street for some AMAZING breakfast, get the blue berry pancakes, trust me!
