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.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel was in a great location. It was nice to be able to arrive and park a little earlier than check in and use the pool or beach passes. The room was a good size and there was a nice balcony facing the pool and ocean. The beach bar had live music that you could hear from the balcony. There was also a little kitchenette that came in handy. I would stay here again.

We stayed here for 4 nights and it was a mixed bag. Everyone is so nice at this hotel! And the location is ideal: every room really does have a view of the beach and it's within walking distance of many attractions. However. We unpacked our bags when we got there and within an hour everything was wet. Our clothes, the beds, the towels....even with the A/C going full blast it was very damp, like, tropically so. The hotel itself was probably just too old to battle the humidity. We would not be really dry again until we headed home. Their restaurant is called "The Barefoot Bar" and was actually pretty good! Good wings and cocktails in the evenings, and good breakfast, too. However, it's supposed to have indoor and outdoor seating for breakfast, but the inside was NEVER open for breakfast except on the day it stormed. This meant we had to sit outside in the sun before spending the day....outside in the sun. Lastly, the view of the beach also meant we had front row seats to the bar's singer just below our balcony making his way through Hotel California for the second time that day. Every day. Luckily, the entertainment didn't go on very late because, whether you liked ir or not, it was like dude was singing in our room. To be fair it seemed like most places in Cape May had someone doing this at their restaurants, too.
