Would stay again, easy walk to the beach, the stove in the kitchen did not work, toilet would get clogged for no reason, there was steps to get to our room. It was kept clean, had a nice outdoor balcony, compared to other nearby motels this one is a top favorite

The motel is a very comfy place. It has three floors and the surroundings are quiet. The room is pretty big and it has a great view of the boardwalk and the wildwood sign. Place is great it’s only a half a block away from the boardwalk. Staff is really polite and gives you recommendations.
