My boyfriend and I had planned a last minute Labor Day weekend trip to Strathmere NJ, (he worked there for a couple weeks and loved the beaches), so 2 days before we are to leave I am frantically calling around finding prices of hotel rooms. The second I called them, I was hooked. Their low prices, pastries and coffee for breakfast, daily room service, queen sized beds, etc. Apon arrival my boyfriend and I were a little sketched out about it being "too small" but it turned out to be just perfect for us! There were 2 queen beds in our room so it gave plenty of space to store our bags and personal items on one and sleep on the other (not to mention how comfy they were.) the bathroom was a little small, but it was so tidy, so neat and so clean! The room was absolutely spotless also. There was a mini fridge and a microwave which became very handy for our late night dominos pickup (only -15 mins away). Not many places that deliver to the motel after 9pm, so that was our last resort. The tv was a little confusing, but we called up to the office and they were more than happy to get us the code to unlock the channels. The drive to strathmere beach was -20 mins minutes and to the boardwalk, it was probably -15. The motel made for a great location. The staff was amazing and continuously asked how everything was and if we were enjoying ourselves. (Which was a DEFINITE YES!) I couldn't have asked for anywhere better on our quick 2 night adventure. It was perfect!!!
Since it was right off the highway sometimes it was hard to pull into depending on the traffic, and if the roads were busy you would have to drive down past it and back around to pull in. Although the room was okay for 2 people I found it to be smaller than any other hotel room I've ever stayed in. The bed was alright, but they only provide you with 2 not very fluffy pillows, so I highly recommend you take more! Since it isn't a chain hotel they don't provide you with any information about checkout when you check in (I had to go through my reservation email) or about when the rooms will be cleaned nor do they provide "do not disturb" signs for your door. I'm someone who typically puts up the "do not disturb" sign in hotels just to show the maids I don't need it cleaned that day. It doesn't bother me if my bed isn't made every single day while on vacation, so really my room didn't need to be serviced everyday. I would've been fine with just going to get fresh towels from the office or something, however instead I always felt like I was an inconvenience to the cleaning ladies if I was in the room past about 9:30AM because then they would have to come back later to clean it. There's free wifi but it's awful and doesn't work half the time.
Cons:
Cindy and Claude are great people my wife and i love staying at this great little motel
This place is the nicest motel I ever stayed in, it sits right off the exit of the highway but it still seems so quiet and cozy. The room was super clean and comfortable and felt like home away from home. The owners were friendly and helpful and even the cleaning staff was very nice. Lovely continental breakfast in the yard under a shady tree. My family will definitely be going back to this motel.
It was close enough to the beach (Ocean City, NJ) that it was only about a 10 minute drive to get there and about a 30 minute drive to Atlantic City. The hotel owner provided us with beach tags (for Ocean City) for the week so we didn't have to buy any. He also explained to me how to get into Ocean City and where a few things were there since it was my first time going there. The room appeared to be clean (accept for cobwebs underneath the dresser/nightstand). The shower in the bathroom was great and water pressure was very good unlike some chain hotels. They give you nice, normal towels to use unlike those thin baby-sized ones chain hotels give you. The room had a clean mini fridge and microwave, however the fridge was very small. Not a bad place at all for a few days, but I was there for a whole week and the room and fridge seemed to get a bit crammed after that long.
Pros:
Wonderful place to stay! Reasonably priced, owner on premises and is very friendly and accommodating. Offered a pricier room for lower price when we wanted to stay another day and No rooms were available .Spotlessly clean! Enjoy a continental breakfast in shaded area outside. Beds are very comfortable.
