8/10 Good

The hotel manager and staff were wonderful, really demonstrated an actual concern to address any issues that enabled us to have a wonderful stay. The queen studio was a nice size, separate bedroom from the kitchen/living room. Would stay here again.
Eric, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

The Thunderbird offered just what it shows. A reasonable priced clean though dated room to sleep in with quick access to the jersey shore.
Josh, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A block from the beach, quiet and the owners are WONDERFUL!!! They are so accommodating and nice it’s unbelievable. I would definitely stay here again. The one down side is the bed isn’t the coziest but totally worth it.

We were missing the microwave plate and they immediately changed the whole microwave. The staff were extremely kind and regularly asked us if we were having issues and how we were doing in the town. Absolutely loved staying there and plan to stay there again.

Very clean, nice room. Will stay again.
Tiffany, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

The room was clean but it was very noisy. AC unit was extremely loud and the bathroom tub drain gurgled when other rooms would flush their toilets.
Dean, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The towel rod was missing from my bathroom. The queen bedroom door was difficult to completely close as it would get stuck. But there were no bed bugs and it was a short walk to the boardwalk.
Veronica, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very clean, very accommodating. I would definitely come back. Thank you
Justine, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

The only good thing is that was walking distance from the beach. The room conditions were poor, it has a humid smell, towels and blankets smells the same. Didn’t have a chair, or a table to sit or put your things. Bathroom was very small.
kenia E, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

No coffee pot.
Janet, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

The room was clean and the check in was quick. The AC worked pretty well and the staff was friendly. I guess you get what you pay for. The beds were flimsy and not very comfortable, the room did not have a working cable box. The bathroom was extremely small to where the space between the toilet and the bathtub was super tight. I guess for a 1 night is ok but I would not stay here again.
