Wonderful experience

What an amazing experience. This hotel was absolutely fantastic. So much that we were thinking about staying another night. From the start the check in with Kay was wonderful. He was so friendly and explained everything. The room has a great setup. And was so clean!! The staff cleaning the following morning were very detailed. They take pride in what they do. Bed was comfortable, shower had great water pressure and just a great place to stay! Book here! Highly recommended.

Overnight in Cape May

What a great find at Cape May! Wasn’t sure where I was going to stay for the night. I knew I wanted an ocean view without breaking the bank. This checked all the boxes!! They don’t have an elevator but are happy to help you with luggage. So welcoming and super clean place to stay!! Highly recommend!!!
