Guest Reviews
- Susan (10/5): Perfect stay , will be back (again) - Lovely property to stay at , helpful staff , great size rooms and everything you need We had to leave to fly home
- Sally (10/5): - It was very close to beach and boardwalk. The outside of the building did not look great and the pool was tiny, but the room was very clean and there were no bugs. I consider that a win.
- Harry (10/5): Quiet and relaxing - The size and the upkeep
- Jonathan (10/5): - Clean room nice ppl
- Roberta (7/5): - Michael is a wonderful host, a real people person! No quiet hours.
- Michael (10/5): -
- Paul (10/5): -
- Kelly (4/5): -
- Izabella (8/5): - Nice stay, room clean. Stuff very nice. It was okey
- paola (8/5): - Clean and comfortable rooms. I loved the terrace. n/a
- Bob (7/5): For a clean, small rooms on a tight budget, this place can't be beat! - Warm and welcoming staff and very clean room. Good for a couple but not recommended for a family due to the small size of the rooms. Other than room size nothing but positives for this Motel. Try and park on the outside spaces for a little more space especially if you have a larger vehicle. Parking good but a little tight. Wish the room and bathroom were a bit larger. Shower drain wasn't great but not terrible either.
- Dragana (6/5): -
- Murphy (8/5): - Was clean and close to the boardwalk and other restaurants and venues Bed was but uncomfortable and parking was right,but tthe parking is expected.
- Brittany (10/5): - Lady at the front desk was absolutely amazing and accommodating!
- Renee (10/5): This is our second year staying here and we will be back next year :) - The property is very clean, the staff is wonderful and it’s within walking distance to the beach and many great restaurants.
- Deborah (3/5): Clean but small - Close to the Boardwalk, clean, Parking spaces were very tight difficult to get in and out of the parking lot. Room was very small
The bathroom was so small it was difficult to dress in the bathroom
- Sina (4/5): - The person responsible for giving the keys was great. This isn’t a review about staff. He accommodated our late arrival which was kind of him. But. The SHEETS. There was hair all over it, crumbs and the bathroom was not cleaned. It was as if the cleaning people just made the bed. The floors were disgusting. We absolutely had no choice but to stay, we only booked for the night. This was a last minute decision, book the night before since we already had our vacation booked elsewhere in WW. Details just so you get why we had no choice.
- Kolleen (10/5): We will definitely stay here again - When we arrived I was greeted by Michael. He was very pleasant & helpful. The rooms are as described. They are roomy, clean and offer nice size refrigerator and storage space. They are in walking distance to the boardwalk and many resteraunts. We enjoumyed are stay here Everything was accommodating
- Nancy (8/5): A nice night with my grandchildren at the shore - Convenient location and nice pool The TV didn’t work very well. The cable connection seemed to be poor
- Robin (8/5): Budget Friendly Gem - Pleasant motel with clean and comfortable room. Great location near boardwalk and restaurants. Office staff Madeline was outstanding, helpful, accommodating, and friendly, a big asset for the Surf Comber motel. Budget friendly, recommend!
- Ariel (8/5): - Nice pool, good location. Full sized fridge and kitchenette great!
- Karen (10/5): Mother/daughter trip - Great location. Friendly staff. Room was small but comfortable.
- Bonnie (10/5): - The staff was kind, courteous available 24 hours a day.
- Tom (8/5): - Motel needs updating
- Thomas (8/5): - Perfect for our quick visit.
- Tatiana (10/5): - Staff is amazing! Cute little motel close to the boardwalk! Parking lot was tiny which made it hard to pull in and out but overall great stay and clean! Family friendly!
- Guest (8/5): -
- Dawn (10/5): Very clean and comfortable older motel - Very comfortable and convenient location. Two blocks away from the boardwalk. The staff is very friendly as well. The rooms are older, but very well maintained . We will definitely stay here again.
- Stephen (7/5): Clean, Comfortable. Convenient. - The staff here were extremely friendly, and the location felt very safe. The best part is that it’s only a short walk to the beach. The room was clean, but very basic—definitely bare bones. If you’re used to luxury accommodations like the Four Seasons, this won’t compare, but it’s fine for a night or two.
In my opinion, even during peak season, this hotel is worth about $200/night. I paid $350 because I booked last minute, and supply and demand drove the price up. At least the A/C worked well (it can freeze you if you want!).
Overall, a clean, safe place with great staff, but don’t expect frills—and be prepared for higher prices if you book late.
- Wildwood is overcharging for Rooms. There are a lot of places you can get a better deal.
- Robert (10/5): - Very nice and accommodating staff
- Deirdre (10/5): - My main priority is cleanliness. This place is very clean. As stated by other reviewers the parking is extremely tight. Great bagel/coffee shop a short walk away which was a bonus. Complimentary coffee available in the office but they didn’t open until 9.
- Michael (10/5): - Staff was incredible. Great location. Room was clean. Air ice cold. Everything we were hoping for then a block from the beach and boardwalk. Amazing stay. I think the owner was Mike. One of the nicest people.
- Michael (10/5): - Great staff
- Leana (7/5): -
- Janine (6/5): - I had higher hopes for this property based on all the good reviews. The floor was filthy but couldn’t tell until the floor got wet in the bathroom and I wiped them up with a towel that turned grey instantly. We were told that our beds were queens but they were not and told us they measured 60 inches across- I’m 61” tall and it came to my lower calves when laid across the bed. The parking was very tight and we had to park in the emergency parking spot out front the second night. We did not get a chance to swim but the pool looked good. The water was hot for the shower but the stall had peeling paint on the floor. It smelled slightly of chlorine or bleach. The TV uses an old fashioned remote that was dirty. The front desk lady was nice and came to show us how to wiggle the key to get it to work. We will probably not stay here again. However, I was thankful there seemed to be no bugs.
- Christopher (10/5): - Great place to stay
- Nicole (9/5): -
- Shane (10/5): - Good for the price
- Jessica (10/5): - Close to the boardwalk and check in was fast and easy.
- Nicole (10/5): - Perfect for a no frills stay. Our room was small but was remodeled (new flooring and fresh paint). The beds were comfy. It had the essentials like a frig and mic. Pool was well kept. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Convenient location; walking distance to boardwalk/beach, mini golf, shops, and plenty of restaurants.
- Victoria (10/5): - Was a great place to stay!
- Dino (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kaylee (10/5): Exceptional - The cleanliness of the room, staff was extremely nice and welcoming, pool was relaxing and fun to be at, nice deck to lay out at, close to boardwalk! N/A
- Elizabeth (8/5): Great simple beach getaway - Great location. Short walk to the beach and boardwalk but in a quiet area. Staff were lovely. Had pretty much everything we needed. Mini fridge, microwave, pool were a great plus! Nothing fancy. We loved the laid back retro vibe. Wasn’t sure when house keeping came by. The TVs picture quality was poor but didn’t mind so much.
- Keiosha (10/5): - Room was perfect for my family of 5. Just wish they could have washed the tub out a little more and maybe another coat of paint for it. But other than that perfect location for the beach! Will def return. In hopes of small fixes.
- Suzanne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kaitlyn (10/5): loved it - my boyfriend and i stayed for 5 nights. our room was really nice and clean. the beds are cozy. they have housekeeping come around every morning. the pool was nice and they have a tanning/seating area. everyone was super friendly and we just loved the place. would absolutely stay here again
- Francheska (8/5): Very good -
- Adrian (8/5): Had a good stay, would visit again. - Decent Jersey shore motel, 1 block from the beach and from a bunch of restaurants etc. There's a small pool to splash in. Everything in the room was functional (AC, refrigerator, TV, wifi internet access, shower etc) and clean. Staff was incredibly friendly, *all* of them. The Surfcomber is fine for a mid-range motel, there's not much to complain about really. That being said, the AC in the room was quite noisy. Also, there isn't much shade on the premises.
- Virginia (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and neat!
- Melissa (8/5): - Loved location to beach and boardwalk. Owners were so nice! Loved meeting their dog in the office! Room was clean, beds comfy. Kitchette tiny, however, only stayed 2 nights, didn't need to cook. Would figure it out if needed. Parking tight, although that's the way with most smaller motels. Would definitely recommend!!
- Kevin (6/5): Outside the room was excellent - Close to boardwalk The AC unit was loud and would cut off and on waking you up. The bathroom was small and hot. No ventilation
- Andre (7/5): Good -
- Johna (10/5): - First time staying here. July 25 Jeep Invasion.
I was completely impressed with this facility. This was my 4th time for the Invasion and my best stay !
Rooms are clean and well taken care of, Parking on site - although it does fill up, But they have other options for you. The pool was nice and clean as was the lounge chair area. I will stay here again !
- Brandianne (10/5): - Thumbs Up!
- Albrid (10/5): - Clean and great staff
- Angie (7/5): It was nice . Location was good. Very dated could use a renovation - The beds were very comfortable the room was decent Place Needs could use a new look
- Rodriguez (9/5): Perfect location for an affordable price. - Coffee machine was good.
- Falace (10/5): Exceptional -
- Laurie (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful staff, clean and cozy room, great location!
- Bessie (10/5): It is a great place to stay. - My husband and I stayed at the Surfcomber Motel back in 2019 and it was nice back then. This year (2025) we enjoyed the bigger fridge, nicer kitchenette and by replacing the sink with a smaller one it gave the bathroom more space. We enjoyed the refreshing look. Keep up the good work and service. 😊 The Tullis from Wisconsin
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kim (8/5): Cozy and comfortable step back in time - The ambiance and nostalgia The parking is too tight. I was afraid to move the car.
- Stephen (9/5): Superb - The bed and the pool very clean. The bathroom to small. But very clean
- Doris (10/5): - They cleaned it every morning at the pool and the surrounding area
- Lori (10/5): - The property was as it said it would be. It was a great spot. Not too far from the beach and boardwalk. They have a parking spot for one vehicle and just as most of the motels, it was tight, but available and you don't pay extra. We would stay there again.
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- Deanna (10/5): Exceptional - The women that runs the front desk is as welcoming as you get. Love that all the lights go out for a better sleep at night! I didn't like that the pool closed earlier. It being a 25 and over hotel, you think it would stay open late
- Christine (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was great. The room was comfy the pool was awesome. The lights on the router were flashing and every night I woke thinking it was cops.
- Jeff (8/5): - Staff was very friendly
- Vaka (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and Cozy. Nice pool with grilling area. Very close to beach and boardwalk. Noise at night, sounded like someone snoring.

- Dooley (8/5): Very good -
- Danielle (10/5): - It was a very nice hotel with very friendly staff.
- Evangeline (10/5): Exceptional -
- Elizabeth (10/5): Exceptional -

- Hopkins (10/5): Welcome - How kind every one is. Something I really needed.
- Anonymous (8/5): Very good - no wifi
- Monica (6/5): - I chose to stay here because of the good rating but I am beginning to ask myself who actually stayed here! First, let’s start with parking - it’s tight, someone can easily hit your car. The rooms are small, the room smelled old, mattresses were so bad - I have the worse back ache & so does my daughter. The walls are thin, last night there was a couple fighting very loud and let’s just say they were ghetto, raunchy & I knew all their business. The bathroom is so small. thank God we only stood 2 nights - not what I expected but I guess you get what you pay for. The only good thing is the location.
- Szczesny (8/5): Very good -
- Alexandra (7/5): Good -
- Maureen (9/5): Superb - Staff wonderful, room very clean.
- Miss (10/5): Exceptional -
- Royal (10/5): Amazing!!! - I loved the kindness of the management!! Rooms were very clean. A lot of space to put belongings. Nothing everything was pleasant
- Rolande (10/5): Very clean motel, pleasant staff but no hot water in the shower. - The staff were very pleasant and helpful. The room was extremely clean and the service to the room was impeccable. The water was not hot. Even after running the water for 10 minutes we only got lukewarm showers.
- Gary (5/5): The cost of this hotel, their location and convenient access to local breakfast shops is great - The location is convenient to boardwalk. The room was clean but small. The cost per night compared to other hotels in area was the deciding factor. I missed their luxury coffee machine that is in their office area that was under renovation during our stay.
- Cameron (10/5): - Very well taken care of by the staff . Even let us borrow a I phone charger causevoursxatopped working .. Room was very clean and cozy .. .. The lady at the best is a Great Lady , made us feel at home
- Enoch (8/5): great value. good night's sleep. - The room was clean, the bed was comfortable. It was nothing special but exactly what I needed at the right price. I'd not a big luxurious suite but totally fine if you're planning on going out for fun anyway. The receptionist was extraordinarily helpful and friendly. I like very hot showers so I wouldn't mind if they turned the water temp up, but it was not bad.
- Daly (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing staff, super helpful and polite.
- Cao26 (7/5): Good -
- Jeanette (9/5): Superb - Comfy beds, clean room
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The air conditioner is super loud. Neighbors on both sides smoked, so i couldn't sit outside.
- Troy (8/5): Very good - Overall the hotel, room, staff was good. The only thing that wasn't the best was the parking lot. It was very tight parking. But other than that it was a good stay. Staff was very nice!
- James (10/5): - Definitely will be coming back!! The staff was amazing and the property was very nice!!
- Andrew (10/5): This was a cute little motel. - Pool Nothing
- Angelic (8/5): Had a great time , staff was super nice .. Great location - The location was right across from the boardwalk The parking was a nightmare
- Cynthia (4/5): You truly get what you pay for - Location Ants in the room. After I went to front desk owner came by and asked me what I wanted to do about it. No sorry. I had to ask to have the room cleaned thoroughly as he did not offer me to switch rooms. Luckily I was only there two nights. Room also smelt so awful as AC was not on. To keep room bearable have to have AC blasting to keep musty smell out.
- Karla (10/5): - I loved it my kids loved the pool we loved it
- Hopkins (2/5): Very poor - Staff was nice Bathroom door did not close. Parking
