If you need a place to sleep and change for your time there, this is a good, pet friendly place to go. It smelled like pets, which was to be expected and was not overwhelming. It's location is very nice and convenient to the boardwalk and jolly Roger amusement park. Plenty of places in walking distance. Only downside, no kitchenette,and is a little dated if that is a thing for you. The staff was friendly and courteous. The pool is on the smaller side, and well kept. We've stayed there a few times, and would go back.

First time at a dog friendly motel/1st time took the dog in vacation. Great place! Never a smell, cleaner than clean, friendly desk folk, dog treats, dog walk, dog info, and we couldn't be more pleased. We usually stay at their per free sister motel, Castle in the Sand (1 block away) and you can still use the amenities there as well. We will continue to stay at both!

We stayed here as a family with 4 adults, 1 baby, and a pet, and it worked out well. The room had 2 beds (1 king and 1 queen) plus a fully equipped kitchen with pots and pans, which was very convenient. There’s also a small balcony overlooking the main street and the pool area. The room was clean but definitely outdated not a problem for us since we were just here to sleep and spend time at the beach. Don’t expect the feel of a big hotel chain; it’s more of a simple, practical stay. The pool is small and right in front of the parking lot, so the view isn’t anything special.
The best part is the location just a minute walk to the beach, with a pet area nearby for your furry friends. Also highly recommend Barn 34 for breakfast, only a 2-minute walk away. Perfect spot if you’re traveling with pets and don’t mind skipping the luxury.
