Quick family getaway
This was our first visit to this property. Overall, very pleased with our visit. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was clean and we had a nice view of the ocean. Pool area very nice but lots of loud children so this is not a place to go if you want quiet pool time. Location was perfect. The restaurant on site was wonderful for lunch. Elevators very slow and busy but that is expected for the amount of people using them. Wildwood Crest is a wonderful place to visit and I would stay here again.

Property is walkable to the beach. Front desk can be more welcoming and wear smile while greeting guest. Room has dates TVs. They could be upgrades to LCD Tv with app. Light switches are not at so obvious places. There is no light while entering the room since they are very dark.

Overpriced
I thought the hotel was overpriced for what it was. On top of that, the air conditioning was an issue throughout. It was a very old system and when it clicked off it was off until the room was very warm. You could not set to an actual temperature.

The beds were uncomfortable. They were wonky. Kept rolling to middle of bed. Hotel allows people to put their towels on lounge chairs to secure them for later in the day. This leaves no room or chairs available except for the ones you need to pay for. They had a bunch of lounge chairs locked up but did not put them out for use. The rental fee for chairs is a little high for the price you pay to stay there they should be less. Light on balcony did not work. Couch is very uncomfortable as well. I love the location and the pool is nice. Entertainment at pool is fun.

The beds were very uncomfortable and so were the pillows , horrible old blankets . The elevators didn’t function well . Parking was difficult in the lots , very tight and not much availability . No hair dryers in the rooms , had to go to the desk and ask for one (the prices they charge , being cheap about a junky hairdryer , charge you 30 dollars if you leave a dirty fork in the sink . Hallways and elevator no air conditioning.
