Nice rooms
Guests rave about the rooms that offer a water channel view. Using your balcony you have an excellent view of ships that are coming and going. The rooms are clean and spacious, same is true for the bathrooms. The hotel has a boathouse theme to go with the boardwalk environment.
positive:

Negative Reviews
negative:
Outside events bring noise
Some guests did not enjoy the activities that go on at the boardwalk stage, which can go on till about 11 pm. The hotel warns guests of this and you may enjoy the free concerts and entertainment but might not get an early night unless you can sleep through noise.
negative:
Food choices limited
Some guests felt that being limited to restaurants on the boardwalk and just a snack machine in the hotel made their stay less enjoyable.
negative:
Business center is small
Some guests tried to use the business center and apparently it only has space for one person so is more of a computer station. If you plan to work on a computer you might want to consider bringing your own.
