As a NY-NJ guy I have been frequenting the Jersey Shore for over 50 years now. First time in a long time in Seaside Heights. This is the hotel that you will be renting at the Jersey Shore.Basically anywhere along the Shore. It's workable. All you really need for a weekend/weekday getaway. If you want a 5 star hotel, and don't mind driving to the beach you have to stay far from the beach. So if you are looking for a Park Ave Hotel just stay at Park Ave. The room was clean. We had what we needed. Bed, fridge, TV, bathroom. Overall the room was neat and clean when we checked in. Our room AC worked perfectly. ( I saw a few reviews where the AC was an issue). About a 10 min walk to the Boardwalk. Close by stores for coffee, breakfast, etc. The staff , the manager at the front desk. Polite, asked me how everything was, if I needed anything, quite a few times. Not wanting to sound like a snooty jerk. I haven't been in a hotel like this since I was in my late teens, early 20's. It brought back memories for sure. If you are looking for something practical and simple. I highly recommend.
