4/10 Fair

Not a family motel

This is the type of place you stay at for senior week or when you just need a place to crash after a night of drinking, it's cheap definitely not a family place for kids we ended up leaving after one night and booking a different hotel all together for our stay. Stains in the bed. Carvings on the ceilings from previous people. Ac leaked water all over floor. Manager was not on site was no where to be found till 11 am next morning after having hotels.com reach out to her. Was told I would be getting refunded for the nights we didn't stay but I'm not holding my breathe.

Check in was easy, was also able to have a late check out for $25 extra. Only 3/4 blocks from beach. Was able to accommodate my grandmother, my toddler and myself. Beds were comfy and water pressure for shower was excellent. Pool was very relaxing as well. Will stay here again!

Blue Wave Inn is an affordable and convenient hotel close to the boardwalk. However, the room was missing some amenities, such as handsoap, extra towels, wash cloths, adequit pillows and blankets.
Zachary, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

was extremely clean but a little dated.
Rachel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a very economical hotel and management is very friendly and accommodating but I would not recommend for families with young children as it seemed to attract a younger party crowd.
