Convience of all of the activities. Parked, and didn’t have to leave the hotel until time to check out! Kids had a great time and I did not hear “ I am bored” once.

Great staff, clean room and comfortable bed. There is a city facing side and an ocean facing side. We were on the city side and I would have rather been able to wake up to the ocean. The room was quite comfortable and within walking distance to please pier and other places.
