The location is right on the beach. They give you cards to trade in for beach towels. We rented an umbrella and 2 chairs for $52 for the day(ends at 4PM) . The beach employee didn’t have a great attitude but is not a Marriott employee. The room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very tasty with eggs/meats/fried potatoes plus pancakes, waffles and plenty of cold choices as well. Parking is $20 per day and be warned the garage has very narrow lanes and tight spaces. During long weekend there were occasional long waits for the elevators (only 3, and the hotel staff use them for carts as well). They also closed many of the streets around the hotel, I’m guessing for traffic management. There was tons of traffic and loud motorcycles in town over the weekend. More specific to the Boardwalk, so many people were smoking weed. Having said that, we definitely recommend this hotel due to the location, staff, and amenities.
