10/10 Exceptional

The cutest little place literally a one minute walk from the beach. Near cofffee shops, bars, boardwalk and excellent communication.
Mia, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was perfect for a quick trip to the beach with our kids. It was clean, spacious and steps from the beach, which was exactly what we needed.
Latoya, 1-night trip

Went for the 4th of July and had a good experience with the place. It was quiet and very convenient stop. Beach, restaurants, shopping is all in one area

10/10 Exceptional

My wife is a hotel and inn snob and I was a little apprehensive about her opinion once we arrived. First thing she said was nice job on picking this place. It is close to everything, especially to the beach.

8/10 Very good

This is such a great boutique hotel. The only issue I had I don't think they can even do anything about but the people upstairs were horrendously noisy. The clunking around in high heels should really be discouraged for people if they want to consider those underneath them. Stopped at 1am then back at it at 530am so it was impossible to sleep through. Other than that it was a great place! If I ever returned I would insist on an upper floor to avoid the possibility of inconsiderate neighbors in the future. Thank you for making it otherwise a hassle free and beautiful experience!

Did not know about automated remote management.

The queen room is a little smaller than expected.

10/10 Exceptional

We live a small motel and have been bring our kids to CB for MANY years (they’re now grown)-the boardwalk inn was beautifully remodeled and so close to the boardwalk to the arcade and restaurants…and the beach! Having the dog run was perfect for a quick bathroom break for our pup and all the different sitting areas meant you could spread out…we lived sitting in our rocking chairs on the porch (we were in #6 so we were second floor at the end so no one was walking by so Milo could sit out there with us. They had the grand opening while we were there and there was food and drink and everyone was friendly and nice! Don’t pass this one up-it’s affordable and convenient to everything!

4/10 Fair

I loved how cute the place was & convient to walk around town . But I was a little bummed at the room . It wasn’t even the room I had booked . It was smaller . The bottom of the shower curtain was nasty . I had to bathe my 3 year old in the shower bc I had no tub . I had two small kids and we had to walk the stairs up to the room we didn’t even book . The bugs around the pool was awful ! It was a cute little place but I feel it was talked up a good bit online . I heard several others say the same . It would have been nice to get the bigger room I paid for !

Amazing experience from the responsive staff, clean, comfortable room and the location of the property steps from the beach. I would highly recommend the Boardwalk Inn to anyone who is looking for a relaxing stay.

I didn’t realize you could walk out onto the beach until I got here. This was the perfect spot to stay. Great location we could walk to everything. The room was perfect size for my daughter and I. We loved the tiled shower. The king bed was super comfortable. The little refrigerator and microwave was perfect for us. You can hear the waves when sitting on the balcony and patio area. Thanks so much for a great visit.
Beautiful sunrises

It was ok but really not what we expected. The pictures were a little deceiving. The management did step up when the WIFI was acting up and that kept the tv in and out. So, thanks for a nice stay.

Perfect hotel on the beach.

Gorgeous spacious room. Everything u need like a bnb. Love it!!
Gina, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Disappointed

It was great to be so close to the beach and the de or of the room was great. There was a strong odor of a chemical cleaner that made it difficult to breathe and, thus, relax. There was a trash bag and smelly mop just outside our door. I reported it when I arrived and was told they’d take care of it. It was still sitting there when we checked out. Smoking was allowed on the porch so each time we came and left we had to pass through a smoke field. The shower curtain was moldy, there were dead insects in the bathroom light and the bed spread was either stained or dirty. Not worth the price.

Very nice motel very clean and up to date. But I’m a bigger guy and that shower was for a child size not for grown men.

Wonderful stay

Very convenient location , it’s walkable distance to restaurants, shopping & amusement center , not to mention it’s on the beach . Friendly staff , easy communication with the virtual management .Our confirmation code didn’t work for the link provided for online check in , but they texted us another confirmation code to use . We will return to Boardwalk Inn !

Amazing little gem!

Amazing location with easy beach access and boardwalk. Great virtual fronk desk. Communication was great! Room was cute and clean. Perfect for the 2 of us. Shower faucet was loose, air conditioner loud but worked great, and walls were thin. But overall perfect for our wknd getaway and would 100% book again!
Angela, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location! Easy parking. V tired pool.

You can’t beat the location for the beach and boardwalk. The room was cute and well laid out. The bathroom is very small overall with a good size shower. The tiling needs a refresh but it was clean. The kitchenette is great and the full size fridge was a bonus. The pool area was disappointing. The pool and concrete area around it are crumbling to pieces.
