After I booked the hotel on Expedia, I got a phone call the next day from the staff to not only confirm my reservation but to make sure that we would be ok staying on the 3rd floor since there was no elevator available. When we arrived at the hotel, the staff was welcoming and I was greeted by name. We were able to check in before the designated time and parking was available for us. The room was slightly outdated but very clean. The beach is just right across the street and the property has a pool on premises as well. Easy walk to restaurants and downtown area. Wouldn't hesitate to stay at the Avondale again. Thanks for a great stay!

Clean, beachfront hotel in a central location making it easy to walk to all the best places in Cape May- included parking and private ocean view balcony give this hotel the big advantage for me. However, I found it strange that the hotel does not offer beach towels. Seems like an obvious and assumed service to provide given the location. It's annoying to guests not to have towels for the beach- and no one wants to buy a towel and then carry a wet towel back home.

A Perfect Weekend

We were very pleased with our stay over the 4th of July weekend. The room was comfortable and clean and the view of the beach was excellent. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The location is central to most things. We will be happy to stay there when we return to Cape May.
