I called ahead letting them know I use a wheelchair and they assured me that the hotel was accessible but it is 3 steps to get to get to the first floor and at least a 6 inch ledge in and out of the room itself so we had to stay at a sister hotel with a extra small room and my chair could not fit in the br also same 6 inch ledge into the room. It was hell

Stayed 5 nights with family. The area around the motel is very good. 10 minute walk to the beach and the boardwalk. Parking was a bit difficult on the property even though they say they have enough spots to accommodate everyone. Housekeeping services were almost nil. You have to request for housekeeping 24 hours beforehand and even though we did, we still had no housekeeping services the day after so we had to get our own towels and make our own beds that day. Front desk staff are very friendly and accommodating which made the rest of the experience a bit more tolerable. Not the quietest either. Understandably it’s a family motel but even so we had to ask some guests to keep it down at 1 am because they were sitting outside having a mini party. Overall it’s a budget friendly option if you’re visiting wildwood but moving forward, I will try to find something else in the same area that’s a bit newer and cleaner than this motel. Would recommend if you’re on a budget but I will not be returning.

Did the job.

Motel is a bit dated, but was priced right for a quick 2 day trip to the shore. Despite a pool right outside our door, it was quiet at night. Very well lite in the courtyard/pool area, which made it a bit tough to sleep at night. Dresser drawers were completely broken and sticking out, so not functional. Blinds were broken. Room was clean, which was most important to us.
