Could've been better

The only issue I had was the outdated room facilities. (E.g. A fan in the soffit of the bedroom was what brought the cool air from the bedroom A/C into the living area.) For the money, I would've expected better, but overall I was happy with the location, and the staff was attentive and friendly.

Horrible place

First of all. They had the ac turned off in the room When we arrived and it was very hot. The only ac was in the back bedroom and it never cooled the living room area. It was very uncomfortable. Second. There was no notification on their website that you had to supply your own blankets. I expect that from a condo but not a motel. So we only had the small car blankets to use. The pool hours ended at 7 when the staff left the premise. That was prime pool time and they kicked a full Pool of people Out every night. It was way too early to Close the pool. The railing were not very high maybe mid thigh level and had painted over duct tape at the joints of the railing it did not appear safe at all. And the free WiFi was only available outside the door of our room. When you went inside the room there was no WiFi signal. It was a horrible stay. I go to wildwood almost every year and this was by far the worst accommodations I have ever had. I told the man when I left my feelings and got a shrug. That about sums up their interest in providing nice accommodations. Will never stay there again

We stayed in a two room efficiency. The air conditioner is in the back room so the front room is very uncomfortably hot. Sometimes the hot water would work and sometimes it wouldn’t. We had a tropical storm come through and the roof leaked in the front room all over our belongings. When we brought up these concerns with the owner he was extremely rude about it. The pool closes at 7 PM and does not open until 10 AM. There were a lot of people smoking outside of their rooms and at the pool, so we weren’t comfortable using it anyway. It bothers my husbands asthma. On the other hand the location was very good and there’s a lot of space in the room. I never write reviews, but I’m writing this one because I think it’s important people know what they’re renting and I was surprised the ratings were so high on this place.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The hotel was very outdated. We had a 2 bedroom efficiency and the only air conditioners were in the bedroom which made the living area very uncomfortable seeing that we stayed in mid August. The baby pool was extremely small so it made it hard for my 3 year old twins to enjoy when other kids where in there kicking and splashing them in the face. Price was good for the location but I would not stay there again.

I stayed for a few days with my family. The owner was very friendly and we had a friend meeting us one night and they even let us know where she could find parking. Everything we needed was within walking distance, clean, quiet, and the pool was even heated. I will definitely be booking another trip here next year for a longer stay.

This motel is very small and clean. There is a pool onsite. There is parking for its guests, did not have to search all over. It’s a block from the boardwalk and beach. Everyone there is so kind. The property is very well taken care of. I would recommend this to families of all sizes, prices are perfect. I will be staying here when I take more trips to Wildwood!
