June 19-24 of 2026 First I was Skeptical because I read the review after I booked, Then I seen other good reviews on another site. I MUST say this place was amazing! originally I got a room with 1 Full Bed, and i son was going to use an air mattress, Once we arrived we realized that the room just wasn't big enough, I went to the office and asked if they had another room with 2 beds available. They didn't hesitate to give us a bigger room! The staff we had were amazing, friendly and made us all feel right at home from the moment we arrived! The pool was clean and so nice to swim in after a long day at the beach or boardwalk. Speaking of beach and Boardwalk it was only a block away if that. every morning if we didn't make coffee in our room we'd just walk right up to the boardwalk and grab a cup.. Many other places to eat off the Boardwalk, Across the street from El Ray was a bagel shop with fresh bagels, They were good! They have a Rooftop Deck that when you stand on it you can see the boardwalk and beach/ocean, it does close early but, we realized that reasoning behind that was its over another unit, so its just respect for the guest who were staying under it. We are already talking about about going again before summer ends. Everything was Perfect for Us Atmosphere was Great Onsite parking Not Issues Other guest weren't loud-We all talked Surrounding area was clean, wasn't loud EL RAY MOTEL Did Not Disappoint!! They most Definitely will have us Again!! THANK YOU.!

My husband and I did a quick day trip and ended up staying over night. We arrived early and the staff was nice enough to let us checkin early. They also upgraded our room and no additional charge. The hotel is a bit outdated but the cleanliness was 10/10. There’s a nice size pool on the property that goes as deep as 9ft so please be careful. Over all we will be back! Great staff. Great stay!

Walking distance to the beach and Boardwalk. Hotel is outdated, but clean. Had a problem with the refrigerator, they had somebody come to room & check it pretty fast. The front desk person was very nice and loved her bird Max. Addressed parking problem with other guests fast. Had fresh linen every day. Expected a little more due to how much was paid. Had a good time with family and friends. Pool was open and clean.

Don’t do it! Stay anywhere else. Any rating higher than 1 is a lie. I never rated any hotel before. But I’ve never stayed anywhere worse than this. I’m rating it so you don’t make the same mistake. Great location but it is horrible.
