I love the boardwalk. So many places to walk/job if you like that sort of thing. I love sitting in the sand at Beach Club at night and looking at the Boardwalk from across the water. I don't typically do mugs ever anymore, just too much trouble to carry around. I typically and a water and coffee person, and with a water bottle and a coffee pot in the room, I am happy. But, that said, there are refill stations around. (When I did used to do mugs, I would sometimes put some whisky in the bottom from my room and then fill at the fill station with coke for my pool drink!) The boardwalk view is so fun, you may spend more time in your room than normal!!!
