The parking was a problem. In fact, someone hit my car in the rear leaving damage on the bumper (2021 Camery). The parking is very tight and hard to get into. We quickly learned not to move the car if you had a decent space right beside the hotel. The smaller parking lot was awful, however, whoever hit my car did it in the large parking lot beside the hotel.

Best beach hotel I've ever stayed at. Enough room for a family of 4 and easy with walking almost everywhere in Cape May. Close to the beach and restaurants...and a pool. More seats at said pool would be nice but that's a nitpick. Would definitely return.

Seriously needs renovations not just lipstick. It's really noisy not just from outside but from the other rooms and the outside corridor. No thank you

I would definitely stay at this hotel again. It has a great location. We stepped out of our hotel and right onto Decatur St. and the heart of the shopping in Cape May. The pool and hot tub were very nice. The room we stayed in was small and in need of some repair, but the hotel manager gave us her card and said next time to call her and she would go over all the room options they have.

Hotel was good but the bed and chair in our room 228 was terrible. Could not get a good nights sleep. Location by the beach was fine.

Excellent location…great stay. Hotel staff is super friendly and very accommodating, rooms are ample enough, the bathrooms can use a little updating but it’s part of the old charm so no big deal. Great ocean view room and the balcony is pretty cool, just make sure you turn off the AC if you’re sitting out there because the exhaust might fry you. Walking distance to the street mall and steps to the beach. Restaurant food was great and pool was clean and found lounge chairs available every time so that’s a plus. Drinks from the bar were excellent…already planning our next stay!!!

Excellent location, right off the beach with easy access. We stayed 3 nights in the luxury suite. It is spacious and clean, with a balcony facing the pool and the beach. Sitting at balcony, particularly with a drink in hand, is very enjoyable. The panamamic ocean views are right in front of you. Hotel staffs at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. Our check in was quick, with our room ready ahead of time. We probably will come back to stay again next year or the following.
