"Stayed one night with family at this Holiday Inn Neptune location. Staff were welcoming and very helpful. The room was clean and the beds were very comfortable. Always a plus when you receive free breakfast and parking. I would recommend if you need a hotel in the Neptune/Asbury Park area to choose this one. Thank you Holiday Inn."
