Great Motel in OCNJ

Perfect location. Staff were friendly and helpful. Pool is very nice. Beds were comfortable. A little older of a motel and parking is tight but overall wonderful for the price. Cannot beat it.

Tracey, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location. Very close to boardwalk. Room was small, but clean. Its a charming older place.
Shawn, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Not perfect but reliable

Smooth and early check in with professional staff. Room smelled nice and was clean. Ac worked really well and even though it sounded like a white noise machine, it didn’t make any weird noises. There was a tile missing in the shower which was very small and it was hard to find the right temp. There was a half stove, sink microwave and mini fridge. 7 minute walk to the boardwalk. Second stay here and I will come back.

Although the property is older - an OC classic - it is very clean and well-fitted for having a meal in room. I felt very welcomed and comfortable there.

It was okay. It’s an older place and somethings needed some maintenance.
Beth, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Old and in bad shape

Floor was dirty. Found 3 mouse traps. Bathroom floor was peeling. Paint and stucco peeling. Rusted baseboard. Had to ask for a blow dryer. Shower was tiny and had a spongey floor. No safe for valuables.
