9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (60)
"Beautiful clean and spacious condo right near long beach in Gloucester. The property management company is friendly and is very responsive. The room I had was newly renovated. It had 2 big smart tvs and a fully stocked kitchen. The keypad door lock is nice as well. I'd definitely stay here again the next time I'm in Gloucester. There's plenty of restaurants and even a shaws right up the road. George's is a great restaurant/cafe up the street with great service and food."
