Liked: Staff & service
We found 1 roach, the beds were very uncomfortable and the people above us were extremely loud at 1am. The additional parking lot was basically abandoned so we didnt feel comfortable parking there. The AC was very moldy. The staff was kind and helpful, and we survived, yet wouldn't return.
The room had a full kitchen and no silverware, dishes or pots. The staff was rude over the phone. The room was dingy and looked like needed a lot of work, nothing there no hair dryer, no extra sheets for futon. Beds small and hard. People can smoke at pool so that’s all you could smell. No WiFi password given, the pool was nice and the only positive I would say except for people smoking right there.
Our room was newly renovated which made the stay bearable. Apparently so newly renovated they didn’t have time to even hang a mirror. However, the pillows & mattresses were old & so uncomfortable & we were only give bath towels (no washcloths or even hand towel) which were also pretty worn & stained.

Great location. Owners clearly worked hard. Mattresses could be updated and no forks or pots or pans etc anything in the kitchen to use. Safe location. Room was clean.
Probably the best motel in Seaside Heights. All the hotels are really run down in the area. I doubt you will find a better motel in the area. Great location, 1 block from the Boardwalk. The staff was great! Very helpful. The two gentlemen working during the day were running around nonstop taking care of the customers. Very accommodating! Room was Very clean. After reading reviews of many hotels in the area, I wasn't expecting much, but Sea Garden over delivered. It is an old hotel, like all the others in the area, but Sea Garden did a better job with maintenance and cleanliness.
Extremely disappointed I went to the front desk to tell him how I felt about the room and how it was showed on Expedia compared to how it looked in reality and the fact that the room didn’t come with any blankets still had sand all over the room so many under age kids drinking and doing drugs the gm of the motel was so disrespectful and dismissive didn’t wanna work with us or even try to comfort us to make us feel better about it so to avoid any type of argument I told my girlfriend it’s ok let’s just leave they honestly don’t care we’ll just never come back here
This hotel was not worth the money at all.. dirty room beds were uncomfortable, pillows lost their lives years ago.. no linen for futon.. no wash cloths. To ask owners for anything took forever ... they have cameras n watched as other kids from other units were running around trying to open peoples doors..
