Hotel Details

Location

Half a block from Seaside Heights Beach and Boardwalk, a 4-minute walk to Casino Pier and an easy drive to Island Beach State Park.
The hotel is positioned half a block from the main Seaside Heights boardwalk and beach, placing you within a 4-minute walk (550 m) of Casino Pier and Breakwater Beach Waterpark. The location is ideal for exploring the boardwalk's attractions, restaurants, and nightlife without needing a car. Island Beach State Park is a 5-minute drive away, and Sunset Beach is minutes by car. Parking on-site costs $10 per day, but spaces are tight; an adjacent paid lot is often needed. Public transport access is limited, so walking or driving is the norm. Numerous restaurants (pizza, Mexican, breakfast) and convenience stores are within 0.5 km, and the Seaside Heights Historical Society Museum is a short stroll.

Accommodation

A range of 22 modern rooms from queen to apartment suites with bunk beds, all with air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi.
The 22 newly renovated rooms and suites feature modern decor with neutral palettes and hardwood-style floors. Room types include: one queen bed (sleeps 2), two double queen beds (sleeps 4), two king beds (sleeps 6), and two-bedroom adjoining suites (sleep up to 10). Apartments offer full kitchens (oven, microwave, full-size refrigerator) and city views. Bunk-bed apartments sleep 4 and are practical for families. Every room includes air conditioning, a 58-inch LED TV with streaming services, a microwave, mini-fridge, tea and coffee maker, free toiletries, and soundproof walls. Road-facing rooms can be less quiet; windows are not blackout-curtained, and noise from outside may be noticeable. Mold occurrences have been reported in some bathrooms, and housekeeping is strictly on request.

Dining

No on-site dining or breakfast; the boardwalk and surrounding streets offer numerous restaurants, pizzerias, and cafes within a short walk.
The hotel does not have a restaurant, breakfast service, or bar. Guests planning meals will rely on the extensive dining options within 0.3-0.5 km along the boardwalk. Nearby choices include Midway Steak House, Maruca's Pizza, Spicy Cantina, Montes Cafe for Mexican, Bobber's Family Restaurant, and Just Breakfast for morning meals. Many of these eateries are casual and family-friendly. A convenience store is nearby for snacks and drinks. For a full seafood experience, the boardwalk stands about a 5-minute walk to the right offer fresh options. There is no room service, but each room has a microwave and mini-fridge for storing or preparing simple meals.

Wellness and Leisure

No pool, spa, or fitness center; leisure centers on beach, boardwalk, and nearby attractions within walking or short driving distance.
The hotel does not operate any swimming pool, spa, or wellness centre. Guest leisure revolves around the immediate beach and boardwalk. Casino Pier and Breakwater Beach Waterpark are a 3.5-block walk, offering rides and water slides. The boardwalk itself provides arcades (Lucky Leo's), amusement rides, and street entertainment. Island Beach State Park, a 5-minute drive, offers hiking, birdwatching, and fishing. An outdoor shower is available on the property for rinsing off sand after the beach. The area has a quiet atmosphere at night off-season, but summer crowds and some late-night noise from the boardwalk occur.
