Room was clean, Staff was friendly, WIFI was great. Good atmosphere, no unruly guests. As the pictures depict, there is a full size fridge, a small microwave, and a coffee maker and two mugs but .....you need to bring your own coffee and plastic utensils and paper plates and napkins/paper towels. Sheets, towels, TP, hand soap and shampoo are provided. Overall, a great affordable stay!!

While this motel is a throwback to generations past in Wildwood, the room was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the owner who works the front desk was so pleasant. Short walk to the beach and jitney as well. I would absolutely stay here again.
