The Atlantic, BW Signature Collection

Overall this was a good place to stay. Clean, conveniently located, has a pool, good price, etc. I was disappointed that the free Wi-Fi is not secure, and the air conditioning wasn’t working well. We had to keep the temp down to 60 to keep the room cool. It needed the filter cleaned as well. I did report the AC not working and a broken shower door. Also, upon arrival we couldn’t find the entrance. Not where we expected. It’s on the adjacent street and hard to spot at first.

It was a good location and stay. 2 things that bothered me: 1) Front desk staff was fresh. Never apologized for her mistake. Teen worker. 2) The room floor was so sticky.

Overall, we did not like this property. Here are the things we did like about it: 1. They included beach tags for the beach & had plenty of parking on site. 2. The bathroom was remodeled recently & was very nice. 3. The room was clean. This is what we did not like: 1. The tv in the room was a Roku based television but was not hooked up. We reported the issue to the desk, & they told us to reboot the tv. When we did this, it still didn’t work. When I called the front desk, they had left for the night & nobody was there. After calling Best Western Customer Service, they hung up on me. If there would have been an emergency, there would be nobody there staff wise to help with guidance. 2. The room was not supplied with tissues, telephone or adequate lighting. Also, not many plugs to plug in chargers. 3. The air conditioner was not turned on when we entered the room & it was very hot. We turned the AC unit on max & it took over 10 hours to cool the room down. 4. Room was rather small. Barely had enough space to place luggage in the room. There was no room to fit any beach accessories in there (beach chairs, beach toys, beach bags etc) 5. The towels & washcloths felt like sandpaper. Overall I would not recommend this property. There were too many negatives over the positives.

The bathroom was beautifully remodeled but the room was tired. The door had been repaired, mattress was old and the bed squeaked with every move. The end table top was badly delaminated and the freezer had an inch of ice all around it.

We stayed three nights at The Pavilion. It was close to the boardwalk/beach and there was (limited) parking onsite, but we did get a spot. The staff I interacted with upon check in/out were courteous. It looks like the motel is undergoing some renovations. The bathroom was recently upgraded and very nice - large tiled shower, newer vanity with lots of counter space. The bedroom had dated furniture (curtains had dead bugs/holes, lamp shade was very yellowed, small fridge in the room had some rust). No place to hang clothing/wet suits/towels upon returning from the beach. The property did have a pool, which seemed to have some black algae/mold above the water line on the pool wall. The property did have an onsite restaurant (we did not eat there), an elevator, wifi and an ice machine.

The most redeeming part of this motel is the location other then that it is not worth cost. Room doors barely shut, could hear everything happening outside the room which kept us up most of the night. The pool area was a disaster with random wet towels all over the deck area, pool desperately needs refirshbishing.

Me and my four children stayed on the first floor right next to the pool. Our room had two large beds that were pretty comfortable and each bed came with three pillows and linens. The bathroom was very nicely redone with enough towels for each person and built in shampoo, conditioner , and shower gel. The water got very hot with excellent water pressure. The room did not have any kind of odor and felt very clean. The motel has a restaurant located right in the front of the building with excellent breakfast and service. A parking spot was included with our room which was very nice. In the morning we walked right across the street and rented a surrey and rode up and down the boardwalk, it was amazing. The motel is perfectly placed so that you don’t have to cross any streets to get to the boardwalk and it felt like a safe location. It’s right off of eighth Street near Cinnabon and a fudge shop with the police station on the side. We did use the pool which was so warm. It was so nice to not be freezing. It could use a good cleaning, but we are easy to please and had fun. The courtyard was so nice to relax in and they had nice tables and patio furniture set up. The front desk staff was very welcoming and gave great suggestions. It was a great easy stay with a better price and location than a lot of other places in the area.

The description of the rooms did not match what was actually in the room. There was no full size refrigerator and no oven. None of the rooms had these items. When I booked, I asked to be placed in an adjoining room or near my 90 year old mother. When we arrived and were no where near her room, we were told they could not accommodate us. Looks like they made some renovations to the rooms recently. Restaurant was good for breakfast.

A convenient property with a short, one block walk to the beach. Their sister resort, The Forum, though is MUCH nicer.
