So while this is indeed a three star review, there are a few things that if improved upon would…read moretake this to a five star review, and would allow us to stay here again! We checked in on a Friday and left on a Monday, and I will say you cannot beat the location, it is a block and a half from the beach, so if you need to run back to your room to get anything, it's a five minute walk at best and it's also part of the beach, where people won't have permits and so you won't be in a super crowded area; location is perfection. Service, was somewhat difficult, because everyone was nice, but they were extremely lackadaisical. You could see it any given time during the day, people were waiting for front desk. People were waiting for the restaurant. It felt like they were completely shortstaffed, although the staff that was there was kind. Attention to detail was missing, because not only was the same stain in the elevator from Friday through Monday, but there was dirt on the floor in our room, and some stray hairs in the bathroom, (which makes me ill just thinking about it), but again it speaks to that lack of attention to detail by the cleaning staff. another example is one young woman who I watched vacuum the main lobby, was on her phone, looking a bit bored with what she was doing, and so it feels as though there may not be a standard to which they are expected to be held. In addition to the attention to detail, there were 4 to 5 different products in the bathroom and when I say products, I don't mean items, I mean brands, which is confusing, because it should be cohesive. We ran out of body wash, which they gave us a full bottle to replace it, but there was also no lotion. So again attention to detail means that the staff is checking these things regularly. That didn't seem to be the case. If the cleaning was improved, and staffing was increased, I do think this could go to a five star hotel, and would happily come back when that occurs!

The Hilton Garden Inn felt like a slice of luxury upon arrival. When pulling up, there was a young man available to help bring items to your room. The check in process was easy, you do have to pay an additional fee to park (money grab). We stayed in room 905 which was comfortable and spacious. The view to the ocean was prefect. Enjoyed watching the sunrise in the morning. The room was clean, and was modern as the hotel was recently renovated. It's important to note that housekeeping is not daily, so you'll have to ask them to do so. The hotel is also pet friendly. I'll definitely stay here again. The hotel is at the beginning of the boardwalk and very chill. Staff are friendly.

We had such a great family weekend in June. Me and the toddler took daddy to the beach for his…read morebday! We picked this hotel for the views and the lil' private beach area. On Friday, our first night, we utilized the private beach area and the pool. The pool area has a bar and dj and it thumps, "MTV lit" type of party. Although the tunes are loud, as they should be, if you close the balcony sliding door, it closes out much of the noise. My 2 year old still went to sleep. Everyone working there was nice and accommodating. At the front desk, if we needed something they were on it. We had a prob with our room upon arrival. The floor was wet in the bathroom and it wasn't from a shower or cleaning. The water was seeping in from the crevices of the floor. They changed us quickly to an identical room down the hall. If you need to to laundry it is 2.50 to wash and 2.50 to dry. You need quarters tho, and they had they at the front desk along with detergent. I was able to wash and dry swim suits and towels to use again We walked across the street to the beach with stroller and wagon in tow. We could have gotten a ride from the golf cart person that the hotel provides (we prob will next time), and who was super nice. He let us know there is a bathroom at the sealoft hotel you can use if you are an Aloft patron and he provided the code to get in. Lifesaver!!! I later needed that code after being at the beach with the 2 year old and her pullup swimmers. She yelled potty and I was running in the sand from the water and got her to that beautifully clean bathroom in time. Good times. It is toddler friendly, family friendly, young people friendly, we had a great weekend stay.

They were friendly, and helped us with what we needed, offered dinner recommendations and helped us fix our AC by getting a contractor out a few days into our vacation and installed portable units inside the unit so we had cool air. Kind of shocked with the other review listed here considering the lengths these people, but I get things happen and people tend to leave only bad reviews and when they are frustrated at a situation. 5/5 stars, amazing service, home, and support!

Unfortunately, that's where the nice part ended and the OMG run for the hills began. I was immediately charged for parking, that wasn't mentioned when booking the room. Then the lot was full and we needed to park across the street and down the block. We unload our stuff get in the elevator and it stops working. We are stuck on the 3rd floor. We couldn't go any further. We needed to go back to the ground floor and into another elevator. We get of the elevator and the AC in the 8th floor hallway doesn't work, the high temperature really accentuates the intense stench of weed, it was over baring! The hallway carpets were stained everywhere, it looked like there were blood spilled and the carpet was bleached with Clorox. There are large white stains everywhere. When we get to our room and the key doesn't open the door, we need to navigate the one working elevator back to the front desk. we are told to "try lifting the handle up" some of the doors work that way. we go back to the room and realize the door handle was installed incorrectly and needs to be used in an upward fashion. Immediately walk into the room and the smell of weed is worse than in the hallway, didn't think that was possible, we were wrong. The beds were ok, the TV worked fine. The sliding door handle was broken, there were 3 outlets without screws keeping them attached to the wall. They would spark when used and pulling the plug out. The shower pressure was nonexistent due to the hard water blocking the shower head from working. The whirlpool tub was filled with stains from mold and looked like it hadn't been cleaned in yrs. We did our best to manage through the stay but left a day early. This hotel is far from "Paradise" I would avoid at all costs!

It's meh for me…read more The outside landscaping is nice and it is a close location to the boardwalk. This is what gives it an extra star. The room overall was spacious. The downside about being so close to the boardwalk is that you can hear everyone walking up and down the street and their conversations. We were on the bottom level so we heard everything! You can also hear other tenants conversations in detail through the walls of the bathrooms. In addition, the max height in the basement rooms is probably 5'7. I'm 5'2 and I could literally touch the ceiling without any effort. The cleanliness of the room was dubious at best. Things had an extra layer of dust on it which meant to me that the room hadn't been cleaned in a while. They had an identified stain on them -- could be blood, could be pasta sauce. Breakfast was meh but it was included in the price. Related to the breakfast, if you were in the rooms you could smell the breakfast being made. Normally, that wouldn't be a bad thing. However, the first morning we were there someone was burning bacon and that was all I could smell in the morning. Ironically, One of my roommates burns their bacon every. single. morning. I was hoping for two days away from the smell of burning bacon but to no avail. If you have an allergy don't believe them when they say just let them know and they will accommodate you. I was only able to eat the fruit. So if you're looking for just a place to put your head at night that gets you extremely close to the boardwalk and you don't care about cleanliness or sleep, this might be the place for you.

Th me only negative thing- the restaurant Spain was also on the eighth floor where we stayed and the traffic was ridiculous. We had to wait 15-20 minutes in the elevator to get to our room.

First: The elevator wait... omg. I feel like it took forever to get an elevator in the evening. I feel like Spain Wine Bar guests should have a separate way of getting up there; different from the hotel guests. Second: UH. The fire alarm going off 4 times in a day? It was 4:30 AM when the first one went off, and i had to help my handicapped grandmother walk down 6 flights of stairs... JUST for it to be a false alarm. She was in pain for days! Hell, she still is and this was 4-5 days ago. After that, my family and I refused to evacuate. This could be dangerous in case of a real emergency. We got no messages or anything about it being a false alarm, yet our neighbors did. Overall, i loved how close, convenient, and comfortable the hotel was, but some things need worked on.
