I would not recommend staying at the waves hotel. I’ve been going to wildwood since I was a kid (40+ years) & I understand what you normally get with a wildwood motel/hotel. However, this place was pretty bad. We had a hole in our 3rd floor ceiling with the sheet rock pieces still in the floor. Our light next to the bed was broken off the wall. The bed sheets even had a body odor smell to them. The worst part was the parking. They want you to leave your keys with them because there aren’t enough spaces & your car gets blocked in. I think they are renting out spaces or using them for personal use, because the lot looks overcrowded for the hotel size. Every night that we came back from dinner was an adventure to park at the hotel. If you ask the front desk, they would direct you to a shady spot to park. We needed a last second hotel & the location was convenient - directly off the 3rd pier where the Great White roller coaster is. The only other perk is that they have complimentary water bottles. I learned my lesson & will try our luck elsewhere next time. Wildwood Crest is much nicer to stay.

I wasn’t pleased this stay. The front desk wasn’t friendly as they were last year. Also for the price you should still have continental breakfast. Not happy
