Pros:
1) Convenient to strip–within walking distance to Boardwalk and everything close to that. This can be useful when it’s hard to find parking.
2) Feels safe enough.
3) Free coffee available sometimes outside of breakfast time.
4) Free breakfast and nice dining room.
5) Rooms okay and no noise issues.

Cons:
1) Hotel was obviously very nice when it was new, but now it feels and looks outdated and tired. Nothing “grand” about it anymore.
2) Very slow elevators. If you’re in a hurry, good luck.
3) Breakfast items were the cheapest and lowest-quality possible (think powdered scrambled eggs, not fresh cracked, and the greasiest sausage on the market–that sort of thing.), and there was no fresh fruit. It’s nice that breakfast is included, and you may like what they offer, but if you care about real, healthy food, go elsewhere.
4) Room 426 seemed clean enough–at first. Then I found multiple hairs in the bathtub from the previous guest, proving that it had not been cleaned. Even if it had been cleaned, there was no way to plug the tub for a bath. This may affect parents of small children especially.

For us, the cons outweighed the pros, so we will not be staying here again.
