Guest Reviews
- Alan (5/5): Underimpressed. - Close to the boardwalk, adequate parking. The toilet in the bathroom was VERY short smaller than normal standard, more like a child’s toilet. The shower head sprayed multiple directions. Upon arrival, there was no “front desk” to sign in, a sign to go to property directly next door which was as close as some larger properties, so not bad, but no one there as well, just directions to call a number. A very pleasant person answered and informed us that the room was open and door unlocked which was accurate. Our greatest dissatisfaction was the very short toilet and the odd shower head. It is best to only expect the beds available, bathroom, tub/shower, tv with basic channels, etc.
- Ricardo (5/5): - It was clean and affordable. We only stayed one night. The staff was very nice No hairdryer. Water was hard to get just right in the shower. No coffee was made available. Channels on tv didn't stay in
- Gregory (9/5): - The ac/heat unit worked very well.
- Tyler (10/5): -
- Shawn (1/5): It was a shit hotel - It was honestly just the staff the owner the house keeper all of them have problems Owner super rude
- Thomas (4/5): Good value if you can handle being around a lot of tobacco users - Close to the broad walk and free parking was nice. Lots of smokers. Smoking area was outside my door. Because of this it was loud all times of the night and smelled horrible whenever you opened the door. Room was good but small.
- Harold (10/5): -

- fran (6/5): It was a good stay just tired - It was nice The air conditioner was very loud made it hard to sleep
- Sally (8/5): Worth a try for the price. Not on the boardwalk but very close to it. - I liked the price and location. Kinda sketched me out a little, when we had to go to another hotel, to check in, but everything was fine, after that! Cleaning staff, (1 man) VERY nice, and helpful. Plenty of parking. Having to go to another hotel to check in.
- Brian (9/5): - Very close to where we were going and staff is very pleasant and helpful

- Bozz (10/5): -
- Theresa (10/5): - Everything!!!
- Lisa (6/5): You get what you pay for - I like that this property was so close to the boardwalk and the price The beds were super uncomfortable, my bathroom toilet was dirty when I arrived, and I cleaned it. The air conditioner in my room was leaking water and smell like mildew.
- Debra (8/5): - Clean Bed to firm
- Jose (10/5): -

- Emily (7/5): Bed was very hard - Location was excellent. Room cleaned every day. Bed was very hard. Office closed well before closing hours. I wanted to check out early but had paid $20 for the key. Luckily the groundskeeper was able to assist me because I could not stay my last night.
- Amanda (7/5): -
- Amanda (7/5): -
- Hoffer (10/5): - The location to the boardwalk was awesome. Staff were pleasant and friendly. AC was on when we got there so the room was nice and cool. The ONLY thing I would complain about was the beds and lack of outlets.
- Seth (8/5): - It was quiet and clean. That we didn't reserve this place at the beginning of our trip.
- William (8/5): - The place is priced appropriately, clean and overall okay but there is definitely a strong musty odor masked by cleaning solution smell . It may be too strong for some
- Robert (8/5): - The location was great.
- Denise (4/5): -
- Schneider (6/5): -
- Gonzalez (10/5): It was amazing and I'd love to come back - It was in such a great location, it was private and well ventilated It was just expensive, 300 dollars a night
- Nicole (9/5): Agréable - Les gens était symphatique ,endroit propre, bien situé près du broadwalk et de la mer. Il y a un bar avec music près de la motel et samedi et dimanche soir ils ont joué tard et on entend un peu .
- Raymond (7/5): - Location was perfect it was about 1/2 a block away from the boardwalk and was very convenient to everything .
- Flores (9/5): Lista para dormir 😅 - Está en un lugar muy accesible para todo Las cama no me pareció muy cómoda
- theresa (8/5): Would stay again - The property was clean and close to the boards Nothing
- Andree (8/5): -
- Valerie (8/5): Very good stay - I like that the hotel was close to the boardwalk. I liked that the hotel had a pool and that the rooms were clean. Staff is friendly and helpful. The beds are kinda hard to sleep on
- Cheryl (8/5): - This was a nice last-minute weekend getaway with my kids. Not fancy, but clean with great staff. The best part was the location, right across from the beach and boardwalk! It's also a short walk from the Wildwood beachball photo spot, shops and restaurants. There is parking on site as well as an outdoor pool. There was a microwave, fridge and coffee maker but you have to bring supplies. There’s a Dunkin on the boardwalk as well as cafés you can walk to in a few minutes. Check in/out was quick and easy. The place could use some updating, but it was an affordable option that met our needs.
- Selah (7/5): Beau et bonne qualité /prix - Piscine et proximité de la plage avec chambre à porte fermé Pas de douche avant d’entrer dans la piscine
- Folk (8/5): Good for basic travel on a budget with kids - Convenient to most of what you need. Easy access to beach and board walk. Hit a walmart on the way in, get some lunch stuff, then park for your stay. Plenty in walking distance for a few days Nothing was stand out amazing. But nothing overly wrong either. Only solid complaints are totally personal opinion since I don't like firm beds.
- Litz (10/5): -
- Collins (8/5): -
- Shane (10/5): -
- Edgardo (10/5): My stay was wonderful love to come back - Very clean and quiet at night
- Sheryl (5/5): Ok in a pinch - There was limited parking but I did have a spot Did not have it's own staffed office on property. Had to go next door.
Man who was the staffer looked like he just got off a motorcycle - improper attire but nice enough.
Remote was taped together and did not work. Needed to get a new one from my motorcycle friend.
Comforters looked like 1960's.
And there was a family outside my room at 5:30-6 am talking. Not sure what they were doing there but at 6 am it's too early to hears kids running all around and crying, laughing, etc.....parents talking amongst themselves. This is sleep time especially for those of us who are travelers! It was like some homeless family came here and stayed on the patio? Not sure what that was all about.
- Ramon Vega (9/5): - Nice pool 3 to 5 feet deep, very quiet, no allow music, no smoker. Receptionist allow me to checking 2hr.before checking, (thanks),rooms are comfortable, big beds,coffee maker,microwave and fridge in every room, ice machine in first floor, good location.
- Mandel (9/5): -
- Linda (8/5): -
- Verified traveler (6/5): Never again! - The room we had overall was clean when we checked in. Once we went to the beach, of course, sand would be on the floor. It was not swept the next day but towels/wash cloths were replaced. The dresser in the bedroom was broken, couldn't use the microwave without having the light on. Bathroom needs a MAJOR renovation. The floors were clearly newer but the bathroom is stuck in the 1950s. For the amount of money that I spent for a few days, it is not worth it.
- CUBA (9/5): - Friendly staff, and clean Bed too hard.
- Brittany (8/5): -
- Vickie (10/5): Great - Price clean close to beach boardwalk Air conditioner was extremely loud
- Jonathan (8/5): -
- Kammerer (9/5): -
- Elise (10/5): -
- Andreia (8/5): very good - So I didn't like the smell of ammonia they used to clean the room, it was very strong, they could use another product
- Enz (10/5): - Friendly staff, very close to the beach Nothing
- Mandel (8/5): -
- P1459OVemmac (2/5): STAY AWAY FROM THIS OWNER! - DO NOT TRUST THE OWNER OF THIS PROPERTY he is a very mean / nasty man & a liar & in my opinion, a thief!!
i contacted the property because i ran into a very difficult situation i sent an email since no one answered stating i needed to cancel my reservation but wasn’t sure the best way to contact someone and wasn’t sure how to proceed. without calling me or emailing me back , i got an email that my reservation was cancelled - with a receipt showing that my deposit was forfeited - i was going to wildwood in mid july for dance competition for my 6 year old for the first time … everything was fine until i was told from my employer that i cant have the days off due to staffing issues (my problem, i know) i was able to get just the day she’s dancing - found this out two weeks in advance to cancel. however i contacted the property and got the owner unfortunately on the phone. first of all he answers just saying “hello” - first red flag 🚩 then i explained my situation, hysterically crying, and need to cancel so i can send my daughter with a teammate instead . he said there was nothing he can do to help me i asked him to leave as is if i can’t be refunded the $183 i left for a deposit and see what i could do and he reinstated my reservation but said i wouldn’t get an email for it
i then called back and got him again. i asked him if i can’t get refunded if i can just modify the reservation just for the one night so i don’t lose the money & i was able to coverage for a day so i was less stressed
(in the meantime i checked the website because i started getting anxious that i lost the reservation and my deposit and stressed about my job and doing what i needed to do. the room prices dropped $150 so instead of paying $550 it was $400 total)
i mentioned that to the owner as well and he then started getting nasty with me. i told him i was struggling financially (clearly having employment issues & now fear of missing out and losing my job to choose my daughter over work) and if an adjustment could be made i would appreciate it - it clearly means the hotel is NOT booked those dates and they’re trying to get reservations . he was very rude very nasty said i can’t get my deposit refunded and i can’t modify the reservation
i said that there was nowhere that stated that a reservation cant be modified i understand the refund but i stated i would keep the reservation for the date i could have lost & to just cancel out the dates that were within cancellation policy - he continuously refused.
he said no absolutely not
i was getting upset
and i said to leave everything the way it was and i would figure it out
within the minute of hanging up i got a cancellation email and he has ignored my phone calls ever since. my husband also tried calling and he ignored his call too.
this man had the utmost disrespect - i contacted him and told him the truth instead of trying to make something up. he’s heartless and mean, he’s a thief and NOWHERE IN HIS POLICIES does it say that RESERVATIONS ARE NOT MODIFIABLE.
this man is a thief and doesn’t deserve your business
BEWARE if you choice. if you upset him or if he doesn’t want to hear what you have to say he will IGNORE YOU & CANCEL YOUR RESERVATION
THIS OWNER IS THE WORST!!!!!
- Elizabeth (10/5): -
- Verna (8/5): I’d come back here again - It was really close to the beach and the boardwalk. The rooms were clean. Don’t expect anything fancy just the basics. My particular room was at the end and so though the place was non-smoking, everybody was sitting in our chair smoking
- Tracy (9/5): -
- Angelina (10/5): I can wait to go back.🙏 - Very Clean and Everyone was so Helpful and attentive to your Needs . Everything about the place is great
- Betsaida (10/5): - Very clean and quiet.
- Warfield (5/5): Great location, small but value in price. - Great location for boardwalk and beach. They had an electric vehicle charger which we used. The air conditioning in our room wasn't great. It wouldn't provide a constant fan to mask noise from outside which could be loud.
- Jessica (10/5): - Very clean and staff was very friendly.
- STEVEN (10/5): -
- Edward (10/5): Fantastic stay. Will book again. - Close to boardwalk and other restaurants. Parking was convenient. Staff checked in on us making sure we were all set. No curtains on kitchen window. Made room too bright at bedtime.
- Danielle (9/5): Would stay again! - Location is fantastic, close enough to the boardwalk to easily walk. Nice pool, clean, large rooms. Also FANTASTIC that when they say "no smoking of any kind" they actually mean it. It didn't smell like skunk weed or cigarettes. Would stay again! Sister motels with the motel next door and operates from that one's office-was a bit confusing to find the office for check in and they lock and leave the office at 8pm-luckly they had the wifi code posted on the wall so I could get the code without them. Little expensive but everything is nowadays.
- Todd (10/5): - Awesome trip. Super close to boardwalk. Can’t beat it
- Gilberto (10/5): - Muy bueno y central Todo muy bien excelente
- Brian (8/5): -
- Karen (10/5): - Close location to all attractions.
- Crystal (9/5): - Liked the area was steps away from boardwalk They didn't have do not disturb signs for there doors.
- Flanagan (9/5): Clean room, friendly service, close to everything. - It was a nice, clean room close to the beach, boardwalk and plenty of restaurants/bars. We didn't have to move our car at all. The gentleman at the front desk was friendly. Parking was easy and there are two (paid) parking lots right next to the hotel if their lot happens to be full. We had three people in our room and the beds were conveniently split on either side of the bathroom for some privacy. Honestly, for the price I have no complaints.
- Wade (7/5): -
- Clark (10/5): - It was convenient and clean No complaints
- Jay (8/5): - Great location, a block from the boardwalk. Staff was friendly and ready to help when needed. No complaints
- Brian (9/5): -
- Randy N Tammy (10/5): - Everything..very clean and nice staff Nothing. Very pleased
- Lincoln (8/5): - It was a clean nice place next to the beach!
- Sherri (8/5): If you’re looking for something simple and clean, with very close access to the boardwalk and are not planning on spendi - Location and reasonable price. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Stairs to upper level rooms are narrow and steep.
- Brian (9/5): -
- Catherine (9/5): Retour dans mon enfance - Cuisinette bien équipée, à deux pas de la promenade et de la plage, personnel accueillant Internet pas toujours stable, mais ce n'était pas l'objet de notre voyage!!
- Maureen (7/5): -
- Sarah (8/5): AMAZING location. Great value. - Amazing location, so close to the boardwalk and piers with the amusement rides. you can walk anywhere really. You Can use both the stardust and Riveria pools which was very nice. Great value for the money. the Fridge, sink, microwave and dishes were so helpful. Would stay here again for sure. It is a little inconvenient that the office does not open until 9am. We ran out of toilet paper and could not find anyone at the property to assist and the office was closed. We saw another set of guests having a similar issue with their toilet being clogged and there was no one in the office to assist. I do realize it is one person and he can't work 24 hours but maybe a number you can call or text for issues during the times the office is not open would be helpful.
- Bush (9/5): - Location close to activities
- Deena (10/5): - Nice friendly staff. Location, in the heart of everything. Bungalow we rented was very comfortable too. Other than finding out it would've been cheaper to book the Motel straight with them rather than through Booking.com, and having been charged more, everything else was great.
- Noel (8/5): Muy buen lugar a un buen precio - Muy Limpio y muy buena ubicación y porque no decirlo muy buen precio
- Francine Hamel (8/5): - Super propre!
- Bobby (10/5): - Friendly, clean, heated pool
- Jason (10/5): - size of room was great, room was very clean and prime location!
- Howart (10/5): - The people working there is very nice
- Ishman (10/5): - The location is amazing and it’s so clean the staff is very few as well as all the guests !! Just a great place to vacation!!
- Sherri (9/5): Excellent location, great value, clean and comfortable room. - Close proximity to the boardwalk. Stairs to upper level are narrow and steep, no elevator for all your stuff.
- Alex (10/5): -
- Eileen (10/5): - It was very clean a short walk to beach and boardwalk never had to ask for towels they were at your door in the morning there are two pools one at the Riviera that you can use which was very nice it was an efficient it was stocked plates silverware coffeepot pans toaster
- agnieszka (6/5): Great for a short stay! - We loved the location - minutes walking from the beach and all the attractions. There is another pool that we’re were able to use.
Great for a short stay! Rooms are basic and outdated but kept very clean.
- G3543MTpatriciag (2/5): Horrible - There were BUGS in the room. They were in the BED and near the window. I noticed a gap near the bottom of the door. The door was not properly insulated. I advised the office and they offered another room. The otter room had similar issues. NO REFUND.
Also, the Stardust has you pay at the sister motel.
