Betty, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location was excellent it was right near everything. The motel itself is a little on the older side. The mattresses were not very comfortable but we only use it to sleep
Donna, 2-night trip

Peter, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I didn’t even stay there. Took a look at 2 different rooms and they were so stinking that I didn’t even check in. Call Expedia to cancel and when Expedia call them they were nasty. That was the only motel with available rooms. I wonder why.

2/10 Poor

I have many pictures of the rooms. They were dirty, had bare electrical wires on the heaters, air conditioner filters were nasty (we cleaned them), managers/owners were rude, no ice machine on-site. I could go on but there isn't enough time. I have pictures of the actual rooms, they look nothing like the pictures on the website!!!!
Laurie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Very dirty we found hair and stains on the sheets and the rooms are connected by just closet door with a large gap under so we heard everything the room next to us was saying
Maria, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Cheap. This place is good to save a buck and have access to the beach and boardwalk. You get what you pay for though. Room was gross, building is falling apart. Would I stay again?...yes. Why? Cheap. Go in knowing it's just a place to sleep and you'll be fine. expect nothing else.
Peter, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very friendly staff Helpful at check in Allowed us to stay parked in the parking lot after we checked out
Shawn, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good place
Jordin, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Rude staff tried to change the price when I asked for a different room because it was filthy dirty! Then I asked to see the next room and they claimed they did not have any more rooms available anyway. Felt lied too and ripped off… and dirty.
Joe, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Janine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property has a pool and is in walking distance to the boardwalk and beach. The room looked okay.
Nicole, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff is very kind and will gladly give whatever you need. Also the price is great for the location and they have a pool :)
Gary, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff were great which is why we would go back…. BUT one mattress was flat (no biggie I threw the kids on that one) but the first time my son used the toilet it started over flowing (he didn’t use any toilet paper so this most def wasn’t caused by us) unfortunately this was at 5am so there wasn’t much I can do but throw the towels down to clean it and go back to bed. We were only here one night so I wasn’t going to make a fuss. Only other issue was that there was long black strands of hair everywhere. Other than that… this was one of the cleaner motels. Also.. if you book call beforehand bc they let us park the car at the motel for the day before check in so we didn’t have to pay for parking
Ginamarie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

They were doing some construction on some of the rooms so parking was a little bit of a pain but other than that it was very nice very pleasant stay very pleasant staff
Shawn, 2-night trip

We had such a great stay at the Dry Dock Motel. Great location, very close to the beach. The staff are very friendly. The pool was very clean. The room was very comfortable and inviting.

I will never stay here again 200 plus dollars for a nasty dirty room shower had no pressure and then the water wouldn’t drain in the shower. the smell was sooo bad we had to go buy a candle.
