About this place Berkeley Oceanfront Hotel

The Berkeley is a big, older oceanfront hotel on Ocean Avenue, directly across from the Asbury Park boardwalk and beach. It is a mainstream hotel, listed here as gay-friendly rather than as a gay venue. Asbury Park itself has had a visible gay community and bar scene for decades, which is why it appears in this guide. Reviews are mixed (around 3.6 from more than 2,000 Google ratings), and older buildings like this tend to vary room to room, so ask for an ocean-facing or recently updated room when booking. Summer weekends fill up early and prices rise accordingly.

Imani Ricks has been super friendly and accommodating. I’ve just got here and throughly have enjoyed my stay. She has made me and my partner feel welcomed with her warm and chill personality and felt compelled to leave this feedback. You have a wonderful worker. Thank you.

These people are the worst to work with for a wedding. Communication is like pulling teeth. If you have the opportunity to get wed somewhere else, take it.
