I just called to inquire about a room and asked a question to clarify something. The woman on the phone responded, " Don't you listen?" I would not even consider staying at a place that had such a nasty person answering the phone. More

Customer called on a cell phone and we had a bad connection going in and out. I asked her to call on a landline because I could not understand her. I was trying to do her a favor and move guests so she could occupy the only handicapped accessible room in Cape May. She thought I was rude when I... More

My girlfriend and I wanted to get away for the weekend. Most places were booked, but luckily a room had opened up at the Primrose. It was our first time in Cape May, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to stay. We loved it so much, we even made a song about it. We stayed in... More

We recently made a reservation at the Primrose Inn for a B and B experience in Cape May, NJ. Our initial impression was that the Inn was too far from the beach and the center of town than we wanted - but it proved to be a quiet, relaxed time with very nice and gracious owners. Since Cape May is... More

The Primrose what exactly what we needed for an excellent getaway to Cape May! The inn-keepers were friendly and accommodating, making you feel welcome right away. The rooms were comfortable, private, and inviting and made for an especially relaxing experience. We will be sure to visit the Primrose again! More

The Primrose Inn is a great place to go hospitality, warmth, rest and leisure. I enjoyed our stay with the Cronin family. It felt like staying with family. We were treated to delicious meals and snacks everyday. The host went out of their way to make us feel welcomed and relaxed. More

The delights of Cape May were even more delightful thanks to the friendly hospitality of Cat, Heather and Chris - our hosts at the Primrose Inn. Accommodations were clean and comfortable, breakfast was enjoyable both for the food and the lively conversation with the other guests. We can't wait to return this fall! More

Our house was too small to accommodate the number of people we had invited to spend a long weekend in Cape May, so we contacted Cat Cronin at the Primrose Inn to see if she could accommodate a group our size. We had looked into renting a house for the group, but by going to the Inn we could be... More

We stayed in the Peach Room, which was a bit smaller than we expected. Cat, Phil and Heather were very friendly and made you feel very welcome, but overall the B&B was not very clean. More attention needs to be spent on the grounds and the rooms. More
