It was Close distance to the boardwalk very convenient for walking distance

Elizabeth United States of America

The Comfort Inn is in a great location. It is not much to look at, but the room was clean and comfortable. Great value and nice staff.

Heidi United States of America

I love the location it was walking distance where me and my granddaughters didn't have to move our vehicle.

Rosemary United States of America

Hotel was good for the price, clean and very close to beaches.

Gayane United States of America

Hotel and staff were great and it's an easy walk to the Boardwalk.

Brittany United States of America

I love that we were within walking distances to the boardwalk and pier. I like the location of the property and the manager was helpful with our parking.

Mariah United States of America

I love the owners. Very kind and courteous. The room was in a fantastic location close to down town, boardwalk and grocery store.

Melissa United States of America

My husband absolutely loved this hotel. Check in was easy. The staff is very welcoming.

Helen United States of America

The location is two blocks from the Boardwalk so can't be beat. It was closed due to COVID but the wharf was open with outside dining. I wouldn't walk around after dark but felt perfectly safe during the day. The beds were comfortable, had a great refrigerator and microwave in the room and the staff was really great. We stayed upstairs as we always try to do so it was pretty quiet. The best water pressure in a shower I've ever seen. We did get a great rate considering its location to the Boardwalk.

Terry United States of America

The cleaning service was excellent. I loved her; she was very nice. The manager was quick and helpful.

Jacque United States of America
