The property itself is in something of a shambles. The locks on the doors don't work properly, I had to play with the key every time to open the door. It seemed like the lock might be rusted or just old. Also I made a noise complaint because the room next to mine sounded like it had a party with 20 people in it. Parking was also an issue as there were four guys who were probably all staying in the same room but only paying for one and only registering one car. I was afraid to move my car because I would not have been able to get another spot. Since this is in Point pleasant during season parking is hard to find and as a matter of fact on Saturday I had to park on the street because there was no parking available at the motel itself. Housekeeping staff did not remove all items from the refrigerator in the unit as I found a melted ice cream Ben & Jerry's or something. There was also burn marks on the counter as the unit had an electric stove and microwave. Bathroom and bed were both clean. I would not stay there again

Cute Old Place
This is a cute old place and the staff is very friendly. Our room was clean, beds comfy, the air conditioning worked great, and we had a nice view of the boardwalk lights at night which my son loved. The location is perfect for being able to walk to the beach and boardwalk. The property recently celebrated 60 years in business, so unfortunately, the place could use some work. Our bathroom sink was slow to drain, the door knob was about to come off. The safety latch to lock the door at night got stuck and was very difficult to remove. There were long dark hairs in some of the small “clean” towels, so I have to question the facilities washing practices. (We had brought our own towels anyway.) They definitely need to speak to the maid staff about the quality/diligence of the cleaning services. But the pool was clean, they offered coffee and some breakfast in the mornings, and overall, the place was fine. Just keep in mind that it’s a 60-year-old property and bring your own towels!! lol

The location is great, close to boardwalk BUT the hotel itself is very old, not “ retro” like the hotel owners had described in other reviews. The second floor has these carpets and other types of materials taped down to the floor, covering up old crumbing flooring beneath. There are many tripping hazards due to this. They need a new floor in the outdoor walkways leading to second floor rooms. No excuse, it’s just being covered up and looks dirty. The ceiling tile in the bathroom fell out when we closed the bathroom door. Rooms were tolerable but would never stay again for the price, absolutely insane what they charge here, for what it is. Also, resort fee to use the pool and you have to pay to park there and they do not give you beach tags.

Cute beach motel! 2 blocks from Jenks (about 8 min walk), close to a nice park (free concerts on Tuesdays we heard), free parking, pool and a larger motel than we're used to. We had a nice size room with 2 beds & a kitchenette. Not a full-sized fridge, but had small electric stove, sink & micro. Bathroom looked updated & we appreciated little things like the soft closing toilet. Not the cheapest game in town, and they charge $15 extra for use of pool & internet. Coffee & fresh pastries by the pool from 9am - 12pm. Most rooms are right ON the pool, but they are very strict about noise, swimming, etc after 9pm. We slept well! Owners are very nice & accommodating. Very present. Also, cleaning staff always around tidying pool area, etc. I always say - PLEASE - need hooks! Hooks on doors for bags, clothes, towels, etc. Hooks!!! Overall, a nice stay.

In general an okay place for proximity to the beach. At checkin staff was not friendly. I asked about a public restroom none available. I asked for recomendations on places to eat and had nothing to share other than restaurants in town. Air conditioner needed service did not work well room uncomfortable with heat. Coffee or other normal expected accomodations not out until well after returning from breakfast. I feel like staff could be more attentive in general to visitors.

Not worth the money
The motel was less than desirable. Kind of pricey for the outdated deteriorating condition. On the last night of my stay came back to the room late and when I turned the lights on there were roaches in the kitchen area. I let the front desk know and they didn’t even offer a discount. I wasn’t expecting a refund but some kind of gesture to show they care. My friend also stayed in the room below us and her room stunk like mold. Needless to say we will not go back.

The worst stay ever. The bathrooms were tiny, no one at the front desk and when got someone there they were extremely rude, the tv never worked, there was charges not disclosed anywhere on the site or told in person till you got in the place. There was no coffee or anything till 9 am when people are starting to leave. The pillows were so flat that we had to sleep on our towels to even have our heads up a bit. And the fridge froze everything.

Not great
I paid $166 for this room. Upon arrival, I was charged $205 because they don’t tell you that there is a $15 fee for breakfast and pool and the WiFi no matter what. They also charge you $18 for parking on their lot. The rooms were a good size but I wouldn’t step foot in the showers and the entire place smelled of stale cigarettes. Will definitely not stay again
