Jim, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Reasonable rates and close to everything. However, property in desperate need of repair and parking is horrible.
Marcella, 6-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This property was great. Easy access to the boardwalk and beach. Only downside was very tight parking and had to pay for beach passes.
Emily, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great stay! Very convenient area and walkable! Well kept and clean.

Close to beach. Friendly staff
Linda, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This property had everything I needed for a one night stay…parking, comfortable sleeping accommodations, on-site parking and convenience to getting to the boardwalk. While parking is very tight, you are guaranteed one space per room. I was also able to check in and park before my room was ready. We just spent the day at the beach and came back and picked up keys and went right to the room.
Shannon, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Quick and easy check in. An older hotel, just a block and a half from the boardwalk. Restaurant next door. Definitely not fancy, but they had what I needed.
Edlyn, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Staff is super friendly. Rooms are clean and basic, beds are horrible, not a good night sleep at all.
Eileen, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A great pet friendly option! I love the old school, simple beach stay this place provided. It was clean, the staff was very kind, and it was close to the boardwalk. My dog and I had a great time!
Diana, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The basics in a motel room. Double twin beds, mini fridge, microwave, tv and ac unit. The bathroom is a bit spacious and it was clean and ready when i checked in late afternoon. Parking is a bit tight but one can leave the vehicle ½ a block around the corner in a municipal lot. Check in was quick, there's a restaurant next door and the boardwalk is a block away. Dogs are welcomed with a fee. Enjoyed my stay in here.
rafael, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Close to the boardwalk.

Nice little motel just a block from the boardwalk in Ocean City, NJ. Complete with parking and close to just about everything. Before we went there we read up about the wonderful hospitality of Greta and were certainly not disappointed. All in all a pleasant place to stay.
Munir, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

The room they put me in had a window to a raised parking lot and the flooring was peeling off the floor.
Samuel, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Last minute getaway to OCNJ, grabbed the 'apt' and it was very large: full living room with 3 sofas, dining area, full sized kitchen, plus a separate bedroom and bath. The bed was small for the size of the room but worked well for my young son and myself and was comfortable. Bathroom very small and odd layout but again for a night, it was fine. There are 2 ac units for the apt, one in living space and one in bedroom. The bedroom one was a bit loud but was fine because it helped drown out the noise of neighboring rooms. Other reviewers noted walls were very thin, this is true, practically like sharing a room. Overall for a night or two, it worked perfect for us to walk up to the boardwalk and enjoy the beach. Parking can be tough (very small lot with some overflow parking we were told about but since we could walk everywhere we didn't have to move the car and lose our spot.)
Janine, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Room was clean. Parking was a challenge. No ice machine was unacceptable.
Bernard, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Amazing location and super friendly staff!
Adam, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The ice machine didn’t work, there was no hair dryer in the bathroom, and front desk said sorry but none are provided, limited lighting in room as we had a hallway to our room that was like a tunnel, and the doors didn’t fit the frames.
Theresa, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great location for last minute
