Not a happy camper at all

Was not able to check in at 4. The last rm was not ready. There was a musty type odor entering the room. I asked for an extra set of towels and I received a still damp pair out of their dryer. Then I received a text stating I would receive a 12p check out for the rm not being ready. Only to receive another text stating that I was to be out by 11am. Then I received another text saying that I didn’t have a shower curtain, but the shower had a sliding door. Then someone knocked on the door the day of check out at 10:20 am to see if we’d gone yet.

The property provided a lot of small bungalow style stays but we chose the single room option for the money. It wasn’t bad but the difference in quality is ability noticed right away and continues to stay prevalent. Overall not the worst single room stay I’ve had. But I would not stay in it again. I would try the bungalows, due to the overall property and location.

Definitely a misrepresentation from beginning to end. Keyless entry was fine. The room was not very clean. Bathroom towels were stained and the sheets were like sandpaper. Where was the pool? Never saw it. Way way overpriced for the poor motel experience. Requesting refund - thank you.

Coastal Estates = great getaway stay!

We were met by the manager upon arrival, who walked us to our cottage and personally inspected it to ensure all was good. Very quiet and a secure location. Mother Nature and our schedule didn't cooperate to utilize the pool, but staff had it in pristine condition. Highly recommend this property.

10/10 — Charming, Clean, and Unique! I absolutely loved my stay at Cape Cottage Inn! The individual cottages are so cute and unique, giving you privacy and a cozy vibe you don’t find at a regular hotel. The property is spotless and beautifully maintained, with a gorgeous built-in pool that’s perfect for relaxing. The location is excellent — just minutes from the beaches and downtown Cape May. Overall, I’d rate this 10/10 and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable, clean, and charming place to stay in Cape May!

We have stayed at this property a few times, but this is the first time we are staying under new management. Our room was nice, new bathroom upgrade until we noticed our room was infested with flies, and not just one or two, way more. We would kill them and come back and see more, overnight we woke up to a swarm of them on each of the windows. Management basically told us we could switch room at 11pm at night - we were only there one night stay. Nonetheless all we received was an exterminator would be by in the morning, but that doesn't help us once we were gone. Some type of compensation, maybe a discount to our room would have sufficed. But instead we dealt with it. Highly doubt we will be back. OH and should mention their waterfall in the pool was not on or according to them waiting on a motor part for it. This was never mentioned in our booking. For over $200 stay very disappointed. You need to do better for your patrons.
