Motel room is average. Strong odor in the room when we got in. Feels like the room was close for many month and the smell was strong when we opened the door, also smell of cigarettes in the room. Maybe from the room next door. A bit expensive for the winter season. The Wi-Fi didn't work at night, location was pretty empty but still the wi-fi signal was not good and when it was good it dropped every minute. Overall is the average motel room.

This is a solid option for those staying in Seaside. Look, the parking is tight and the pool is quite small, but the room was clean and whenever I needed something, the front desk was very attentive. Its location is also good as it is a couple short blocks from the beach / boardwalk as well as the Casino Pier.

Typical beach motel with outdated decor and semi-stiff beds, however, this one is actually a step above the others we've stayed. Slightly cleaner, and the staff went out of their way to help with anything we needed! Brought extra towels to the room minutes after we called. Wonderful and personalized service all around.

Although very convenient to the beach and boardwalk, and location is everything, it was not worth it to us. Even for $98 a night, we wouldn't stay again. My main complaint was the filth of the room. Big hole in the shower stall, mold growing on the shower curtain, old crusty dirt on top of baseboards and also pushed in every corner of the floor from mopping, musty smell near the sink area, I could go on. Gross.
Most people have certain standards, and would like a room that's atleast reasonably clean. This was not. We didn't complain because we only stayed one night, thankfully.
The woman at the desk seemed very sweet, and I was given extra towels upon request, (although they were very stained.) But that's about it.

I just want to say that this hotel needs improving. When i first checked in i had no toliet paper or tissue. There was only 2 bath towels in room. The soap is so small that u can only use it once. Had to wait till 2 pm to get 2 more towels?? Dônt plan on showering early. Its called par. U need at least 2 and a half par. Room was clean. But in the evening there was shady people hanging around front desk.

First the one positive is location. Even though it sounded like there was a nightclub next door at 2am. Other than that this stay was a nightmare. 3 rooms for $850. My room had mold in the bathroom, shower, shower curtains, and fridge. Holes in the walls, door knobs falling off, filthy a.c., non working deadbolt, grass growing out of the gutters, tiny flying fruit flys just awful. We only were staying 1 night just to sleep so we stayed. My sisters room even had a blood stain on the bedspread. $260 a night to sleep with my hoodie on over my head because of the filth and slept with light on. I know jersey shore motels are not the best but this was by far the worst ive ever stayed at. The cleaning staff was yelling and swearing in front of my 7 yr old in the parking lot but hey the guy at the front counter was cool. I had held off putting this review up but felt i had to warn others.

Nice staff, clean room, and close to convenient stores and the beach! They were accommodating and put me and my family's rooms next to each other. It's outdated like most of the motels in Seaside Heights, but it's better than most and doable. They also have free parking and wifi, a big plus!

My room was very clean. The bed was comfortable. I slept soundly through the whole night. There is a bar next door (which only was only really busy one night when I stayed) but once I went to bed I couldn’t hear anything and I never woke up til the morning.
There was a microwave and a fridge in the room and it was very clean as well. The TV worked well and they had good channels.
The location was awesome. We could walk everywhere. Parking for guest is included with the room, so no cost. We parked our car at the motel.
It does have an outdoor pool, which was cute.
The chairs outside of the room are a nice touch.
My only complaint was that my bathroom tub was clogged. So when I showered the water was not draining… Also they have nowhere to hang towels in the bathrooms besides on the shower rod or on the toilet (which isn’t that most sanitary thing).
Overall I think for a motel near the beach, it’s excellent. It’s not a five star establishment and does not advertise as such. It’s pretty basic and outside of the pool there are not any major amenities. But it’s clean, comfortable and close to the beach and major attractions in the area. It’s a good value for the location. What more can you ask for?

This is probably my 4th or 5th time staying here and its been amazing every time. Check-in and check-out is quick and easy. Pricing was good for it being the weekend before a holiday. Room was clean and spacious and hotel was maybe a block or 2 from the beach/boardwalk. . Only bad thing about this stay was there was a bunch of kids partying for "prom weekend" or "senior week" and the security they had for the weekend did absolutely nothing to quiet them down at 2am while they were still going at it, mind you I'm only a year older than most of those kids so I get it but there are other travelers there too to be mindful of. Other than that the stay was great as usual,
