The motel is simple but acceptable. The location is great, close to the beach with a choice restaurants. Jerri the receptionist was really rude! I was greeted with a condescending, snarky attitude. The other staff members were very accommodating and friendly!

Hotel was great in October and remains great after "Sandy". We were their only guest and it was still great-----friendly staff makes all of the difference. Even though services were limited due to time of year and weather related situations---- we enjoyed our stay as we always have!

We stayed for 4 days at the hotel 16Oct-20Oct, and loved every minute of it. I've been in the resort business worldwide, for 50 years, and although this is not a luxury resort, it certainly has world class, friendly staff, better than adequate guest facilities, great location, good restaurant/bar scene and fine fishing right out front. I don't know if... More

This hotel has a great location, right on the beach away from the boardwalk and at the entrance to Island Beach State Park. The rooms need renovations. The beds are very old and the bathrooms are old blue tile. There is rust on the fans and radiators. I think if they would get new mattresses and renovate the bathrooms I... More

If you are looking for new modern chain motel keep going. If you are looking for a typical shore motel this is the place. Right on the beach, in fact they have their own private beach aka own lifeguards and free beach pass. Beach is at the end of Seaside Park right before Island Beach State Park. Staff was very... More

Easy beach access with a short walk to the end of the parking lot -- beach tags are provided to guests after payment of a small, refundable deposit.... More

We just returned tonight and we are planning to visit again next summer. The location was PERFECT! A fairly isolated beach away from the boardwalk. It was an easy walk to the beach from our room through a small dune. Even though it was a hot, busy beach day we were able to find a good spot and weren't disturbed.... More
