Liked: Cleanliness
When I first pulled up, I was a little concerned because it appeared to be very small and tucked in. The room was small, but as my daughter noted, it was probably the cleanest place in Seaside. Zero mold smell the air conditioner was cranking. The sheets were immaculate and soft. The bathroom was tiny but immaculate. I will suggest bringing your own shampoo, conditioner, and soap three packets were provided, but very small. The furniture was definitely dated and well worn but clean there was a refrigerator stove, top and microwave. The pool is around back through a narrow walkway, but again was very clean. There were plenty of chairs and floats and also a barbecue with picnic tables.

Vacation 2025

the owners were very nice, It would of been nice to have someone sweep change towels daily. Shower curtains were gross need to be washed after each stay, bottom of shower curtains were black. Room 15 think it would be good for them to put up a shower head outside, at the path leading to pool. People were wearing their sandal's into pool just to Rince sand off them self. Also telling their kids to wash sand off. Gross people. Other than that, stay was nice, owners very accommodating, walking distance to boardwalk, beach, restaurants etc.

Ok for a quick last min overnight

Staff are friendly. Room smelled clean but the floors were not mopped and the sheets on the bed did not look clean when we arrived. We booked last minute. So with that said, overall it was an ok place.

As motels go, this place is very well run. The beds are comfortable, the sheets are soft and the rooms are clean. The owners are very friendly while keeping the Memorial Day madness at bay. We will definitely be back. Thank you!

Stayed at the hotel for a few nights with friends and it was great. The location was ideal, parking was easy, the room was good and the hotel operator was very accomodating. I highly recommend it if you are staying in the area.

Close and "good enough"

We arrived in the middle of the night for an event around the corner the next day. The attendant was professional and didn't seem to mind being woken up at 1:30 a.m. We didn't expect much. The room was fine. It was clean and serviceable. The bathroom is small. The beds were dated. However, everything was "good enough." The room did not distract us from our purpose, which is all we asked.

It is Seaside Heights. The gentleman in the front was very nice. We went from Point Beach to here and what a culture shock. The floor had a stickiness to it. I should have read the reviews better. It was an experience. It was probably as clean as they could get it.
