Perfect location and very clean

Stayed here for the weekend and had a great time. Very clean, kitchenette was nice to have and right across from the beach. The parking was a bit tight and the front desk was in another hotel a few doors down, but not a big deal. Staff was super nice and helpful. Definitely would go back.

Parking was a nightmare and we ended up having to pay for overnight parking across the street. But I do have to say I our room was probably the cleanest room we ever stayed in while vacationing in Wildwood! We also loved being so close to the boardwalk and beach!

Very clean, air conditioning was set to 65 so the air was nice and cool. Beautiful flooring through the room. I loved the bathroom tile and the space of the shower. The manager was friendly, kind and helpful. The motel was a block away from the beach and boardwalk.

Perfect location

Perfect location to just walk to the beach, boardwalk, and ice cream. Enjoyed watching all the muscle cars take photos in front of the Wildwood sign and balls. Free parking in prime location. Parking is very tight but AJ offered options if needed. Felt safe, comfortable, and plan to stay in the future. AJ walk us in after check in and made sure we were set. There's a family business feel.

Good location, condition could have been better

The hotel was ok. It was nice that it was a suite with a kitchen and very convenient location. The manager at the front desk was very friendly and helpful - he filled my cooler with ice for me from another location and helped us with parking so we could enjoy the boardwalk. However, the condition of the place was a bit run down and the kitchen was not the cleanest. There weren’t any sponges, brushes or paper towels to clean the dishes which we would have expected.

Great location near the boardwalk. Clean room with everything you need. The only negative was the parking situation. There are five rooms and five parking spots; three of which are at the end of a very narrow lane and in a tight lot, the other two are parallel parking against the building. It wasn't easy to park and some vehicles would be too big to fit there.

The room itself was very clean and updated although there wasn’t a full kitchenette like in the photos. It had a full size refrigerator with a microwave on top and a little table. It was fine for my purposes but the pictures and description led me to believe it would be a real kitchenette. But I loved the shower and the renovated feel to the whole room. Parking was tight and really only three spots in the back. Luckily it was off season so only three guests were there!

Property was unkept outside. Dirty Laundry piled up outside on the ground for days. Mismatched furniture, ripped box springs. One burner worked and it caught fire when used. Dirty microwave and dusty and gross coffee maker with very old mildewy coffee pod in it. The People were very nice though and they will help with whatever you need. We left the next morning.

When we got there to check in no one was in office. When we called we were told that the place we booked was under construction so we had to drive up the block to monaco motel. None of this was under the listing. When we got there there was a problem with the reader and i had to send them a picture of my id. Staff was very nice no attitude or anything from them however, when we got in our room and went into the bathroom we found that our window had a broken screen and was open. Someone could’ve peeked in but we were lucky enough to not have that problem. The spot in the wall where the air conditioner was had a space between the two as well as the what i assume used to be a window above the room door. On their website the office is said to be open 24 hours and that there was a free ice machine and room service. No one was there in the morning, the ice machine was broken, and within our 2 day stay our trash was over filled. The stay wasn’t horrible and the beds were spacious and comfortable. good amount of space. Terrible microwave. All and all not the best but not the worst and it wasn’t dirty.

Nice and spacious room. Just a few minutes walk to the boardwalk. Just as pictures describes. Good and safe parking. The manager AJ is a wonderful person, friendly and welcoming. If you are looking for the place near the boardwalk and all the fun places, this is it. I would just mention the regular blinds on the windows, so the room is quite bright at night. Plus I would not expect the full quietness at night. You can hear all the people talking outside on the porch and even from the other hotels, cars, busy road. As we prefer quietness over the walking distance to the boardwalk, we stayed the other nights at Airbnb 15 minutes away from the Wildwoods. There no actually quite places near the walking distance from the Boardwalk. They are all quite noisy with people parting at night, smoking and drinking outside. If you are picky about the quietness, I would recommend staying further and just drive 10/15 minutes. The parking is cheap and really easy to find both in Wildwoods and Cape May.

Lackluster at Best

We stayed in room 204 for 4 nights and were fairly ambivalent about our stay. The location was fantastic and the room was fairly updated. The air conditioning worked fine and we were also provided with a fan in room upon arrival, which was appreciated. The fridge and microwave were very clean as well. Here ends the positive aspects of our stay. Although the maid had just cleaned our room before our arrival, the tiled floor was still covered with a thin blanket of sand, which was gross. The sheets on the second bed had a cigarette burn hole, and most of the surfaces in the room were stained or drawn on. The shower handle was also incredibly hard to turn and it was difficult to get warm water. We ended up showering in our family’s condo instead. The most shocking portion of our stay was watching the maid finish cleaning the other recently vacated rooms. Once all the sheets and towels were removed from the rooms, they were left outside under the stairwell during the entire duration of our four day stay. This meant they were soaked with rain and exposed to the elements outside. We tried not to dwell too much on this, otherwise it would have been impossible to sleep in our own bed knowing how the sheets were maintained at this motel. We don’t think we will return to this motel again.
