This is a perfect family situation - on the beach, and indoor and outdoor pool, food readily available. We had a severe thunderstorm in the early afternoon, but the day was not ruined because the kids were very happily entertained in the hotel. Every room had a kitchenette which was in good shape and convenient, and the restaurant had everything else you might need.

Positives: Kids were constantly entertained, even when it rained, we were entertained.

Negatives: The other guests left half-eaten food at the hot tub, and the parrots are loud in the morning.

Its no 5 stars, but a nice place to stay.

Positives: Next to the beach.

Negatives: Door was hard to open.

The staff was friendly and accommodated our early arrival. The free parking and closeness to spots like Macky's, Frager's Island, and Secrets is great. The beach near the hotel is not crowded. The layout is weird with the indoor rooms with balcony's and being on the first level of the interior of the building was awkward.

Positives: Great location, right on the beach and close to local destinations.

Negatives: The room was awkwardly placed right next to the indoor swimming pool so it got loud in the morning.

We have stayed here for the past 4 years - in July. We have two kids under 12. We purchase the upgraded ocean front room. We've stayed at other hotels on the boards, but the location/value is what brings us back. On the Boardwalk, on the beach and within walking distance of major attractions. Can park the car at the beginning of the week and pretty much leave it there. The parking is tight, but you'll find a spot maybe in their lot across the street. The indoor hotel pool is definitely too crowded with unsupervised kids, but there is plenty of room at the two outdoor pools. The rooms are good. Don't set your expectations on 5 stars - it's definitely not. Anytime we have had an issue, the hotel has made it right. We don't go there to stay in the room all day so TV channels, etc. aren't an issue. I know there is news and weather - bring a DVD player if you want movies. The rooms have a full fridge and stove for making lunch. The beds are tight advertised as Queens more like fulls. In general it's a place to sleep and shower - and if you look at it that way it works just fine. The view is spectacular. Private balconies. Complaints : the elevators are slow and crowded - you can wait 5-10 minutes or more to catch one. The pool area only permits their own drinks (purchased from their bar). Internet connectivity is available, but very poor signal.

Positives: Price vs location, walking distance to major attractions, Beach Boardwalk.

Negatives: Two slow, crowded elevators; can't bring your own drinks to pool area.

Excellent all around, but not quiet for the attraction if atrium and children consumed the pool and hot tubs.

Positives: Awesome beds, very clean, and very friendly!

Negatives: Cause of atrium had birds which were noisy and lots of kids, so quite it was not.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 12 May 2010 rated 7 out of 10.

Better than average hotel, OK value for money.

Positives: The bed was really comfortable, neat and expectation met for the bathroom, easy to access the local bus and in the center of the city.

Negatives: The carpet of the room, the TV and the channels.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 28 Oct 2009 rated 8 out of 10.

Ocean view room was very nice. Pool and facilities was as described. Would recommend again. Direct beach access from hotel.

Positives: Tropical live birds on display.

Negatives: A little noise at night, not much.

Positives: Nice swimming pool and hot tub, nice view, hammock right outside of our room, wonderful staff Negatives: The lobby smelled like vomit, when we arrived, our keys didn't work. We got new keys, and they didn't work either. We had to get the lock changed, the toilet seat was broken, the bird were annoying and loudOverall, I do not feel that the price I payed was worth it.

Positives: The swimming pool and hot tub were nice

Negatives: The lobby smelled like vomit

I have never stayed in a this horrible hotel. Every night we were there I had to call the front desk due to people below us using fowl language, yelling banging on the walls until 2 am or better. Our room was very dirty, the carpets were filthy, you could not even walk across the room without having your feet covered in black stuff. The fridge provided did not work and that is very hard when you are traveling with a 1 year old.

Positives: The beach was nice.

Negatives: Hotel room was very dirty, smelly.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 04 Sep 2008 rated 8 out of 10.

A very family friendly hotel with a lot of friendly staff and nice atrium, if you are looking for a comfortable, laid back hotel without polished brass fixtures, this is a good place.

Positives: Large room, configured well.

Negatives: Jacuzzi was not always hot.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 02 Sep 2008 rated 8 out of 10.

For the beach and easy facilities, this is a great place. Rooms and interior will be less than sparkling. Tropical birds in the atrium will keep kids amused. Humidity control in the atrium (as with most hotels with an indoor pool) is a challenge.

Positives: Beach was easy and clean; bartender was friendly and prompt; check-in was easy.

Negatives: Starting to show signs of wear; may be end of season.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 25 Aug 2008 rated 5 out of 10.

The hotel was fine and the staff was friendly at check in. I had to go through the atrium to get to my room and they had a large amount of tropical birds which they left loose during the day. Every time I wanted to go somewhere I had to go to the end of the hallway and go up and down 5 flights of stairs and outside and around the building because I have been attacked in the past by birds and do not want to be anywhere near birds. We could only park one car on the lot and my daughter had to park on the street. She has a brand new 2009 vehicle which was damaged while parked on the street. The passenger door was body slammed by someone which completely ruined the door and paint on her new vehicle. I would not return to that location because of the birds.

Positives: The view of the beach was nice.

Negatives: Birds in atrium left loose during the day - I have been attacked by birds and was upset - lack of parking for 2nd car.

The proximity to the beach and the view from our ocean side room was the best part about this hotel. Our room was decent enough to sleep in and fairly clean. Would not stay here again though.

Positives: Great proximity to beach & spectacular views from our room.

Negatives: Dirty, unprofessional staff.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 24 Jul 2008 rated 5 out of 10.

Upon arrival room door was open with TV on and no one in there, bathroom very dirty. After letting front desk know, another room was offered and accepted. New room bathroom tiles cracked and coming apart as people walking on. Shower hard to regulate as went from hot to freezing cold. Mildew in radiator. Room keys did not work and had to get new ones. Food at atrium in hotel was good, but service slow as they forgot simple things such as water. Pool was nice and clean and bar by pool was nice.

Positives: View, quiet surroundings.

Negatives: Mildew in room/bathroom floor a mess as tiles breaking etc.

The view was beautiful and the balcony made it even better. The birds were a great thing to see when you are entering and leaving the hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Positives: Loved the view and balcony.

Negatives: A little far away from boardwalk.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 05 Jun 2008 rated 4 out of 10.

The hotel was the location we needed. It was family friendly lots of young kids. We felt very comfortable and would stay there again. We got a kick out of the birds.

Positives: It just seemed to be what we needed.

Negatives: The remote control did not work Saturday. But it was fixed on Sunday.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 22 May 2008 rated 8 out of 10.

It is great for family vacations and has plenty to keep a kid occupied while the parent can easily keep an eye out for their children. It is a no foul play operation. Lots of colorful parakeets, pools, hot tubs, and games to keep the family entertained.

Positives: I went to a college graduation in Salisbury and we checked into the Quality Inn afterwards, and walked to a wonderful restaurant to celebrate.

Negatives: We could not get Ocean Front room w/King.

This hotel is excellent, we loved it. we will be going back.

Positives: It was very clean and our room was excellent. staff was friendly and we will go back.

Negatives: The shower head was really dirty.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 15 May 2008 rated 8 out of 10.

Overall, this is a good find especially if you're looking to do things around town and not just on the boardwalk. Pleasant staff and great room. Beware of the birds in the morning though; they can get very loud making it hard to sleep late. The oceanfront view and sounds were a definite plus!

Positives: The updated room.

Negatives: The loudness of the birds in the morning.

Half the hotel's heating system comes on automatically. You can not control the heat level in your room. Sleeping in 100+ degrees was not fun. They did give me a fan when requested but it just blew hot air around the room. The carpet was very dirty, I wish they spent a little money on a carpet cleaner. The room came with a kitchen which was nice, but the bathrooms needs a remodel. The cleaning staff does a good job keeping everything else nice and neat. The Hotel was right next to the beach so that was nice. It also has a indoor and outdoor pool.

Positives: Next to the beach.

Negatives: Half the hotel's heating system comes on automatically. You can not control the heat level in your room. Sleeping in 100+ degrees was not fun.

Close to the ocean with indoor/ outdoor pool. Frig with microwave and stove in room. A plus to have interior entry hotel room. We had a room that was entered from the exterior and had to walk out in the elements to get to the pool.

Positives: Lobby was family friendly.

Negatives: We were booked next to the hotel bar and it was load all night.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 06 Mar 2008 rated 9 out of 10.

We enjoyed our stay, and the balcony that overlooked the pool area. Would go again.

Positives: The tropical pool area, balcony that overlooked on the inside.

Negatives: Our room we had to go outside to & from the inside pool burrrrrr.

I enjoyed my ocean front room and the birds and koy in the atrium were very nice. Fresh fruit were available in the lobby free of charge it was very nice. I would definitely stay again and the hotel staff was very upfront about the youth events that were scheduled for the same time as my stay. I truly appreciated it

Positives: They had a youth event and they were straight up with me and asked it would present any problem with my stay. I truly appreciated it.

Negatives: No I was satisfied the elevator was slow but that's it.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 04 Jan 2008 rated 8 out of 10.

Pleasant staff, indoor pool and atrium fun for the kids. Bathroom small and out of date (and had ants), was hot and stuffy. No air or central fan during the off season. Though front desk offered to bring up a portable fan. Expected at least basic climate control for the price.

Positives: Nice ocean view, convenient location.

Negatives: They have no central air or fan circulation in the off season.
