The pictures makes one think you will be on the boardwalk. Nope!!!! The hotel is down the street from the boardwalk just outside of Bethany Beach. The trolley isn't allowed to pick up or drop off because it's just outside of city limits. Also, there is a parking fee AND a cleaning fee of $25 if you want your room serviced.

We have stayed at this hotel for about 10 years and have never had any big issues. The older staff is fantastic and I sure wish this recent incident was handled differently. We will unfortunately not be staying here anymore. When you have cleaning staff that works at a pet friendly hotel they should at least know the basics of how to interact with a dog and not be afraid and create chaos when a 12lb dog gets loose in the hotel hallway. The manager on duty didn’t respond very well and laughed off the situation. Saying….” Our staff isn’t use to dogs chasing them at work.” Our dog wasn’t chasing until he made it a game as other staff laughed creating a what a dog views as playtime. Staff stated the “dog was trying to kill him.” Don’t hire staff that is afraid of dogs at a “pet friendly” hotel.

Close to the beach. Nice room with comfy beds. Great for a short stay at the beach. Overall a clean hotel. Our bathroom floor needed some extra cleaning. Not a huge deal. We would stay again.
