Nancy's pictures don't say it all - the kitchen has a large pantry holding additional dinner and serve ware, and lots of cookware or kitchen essentials you might only expect at home. You'll find a clean laundry room just steps down an outside hall and a second gate that places you right across a parking area from the Marriott (perfect for cocktails, live music). There are sand chairs & a cooler - which is good since you are very close to the boardwalk and beach. That said, the unit is quiet and comfortable.
