Not sure why when i went on google and the reviews were terrible, staff was lovely and rooms were basic but clean. Place is a little run down looking but honestly that’s practically every hotel at the shore so nothing new. This was my second time staying and will absolutely be back!

Verified review

6/10 Good

It’s hard to find a good hotel in Seaside Heights, this hotel was pretty clean and had decent space in the room, the only problem was that the mattress was way beyond needing replacement, the bed sank so low in the middle like you were sleeping in a hole, I woke up with terrible back pain as a result. A small investment in a new mattress would go a long way taking it from just ok to great.

This quaint little motel was perfect for our overnight stay in Seaside. I had messaged the property the day before, in anticipation of a possible early arrival. The gentleman running the motel told me to contact him when we had an ETA. When I called, he was so friendly and kind, and made our early check-in a breeze! The room was very clean, cozy, and the bed was super comfortable. We were also able to park in the lot, which was great. A short walk to the boardwalk and some surrounding restaurants made it a very convenient spot. We hope to be back soon, and will be looking to stay here again!

The hotel manager and staff were wonderful, really demonstrated an actual concern to address any issues that enabled us to have a wonderful stay. The queen studio was a nice size, separate bedroom from the kitchen/living room. Would stay here again.
