Very disappointing!

My family and I were very excited to take a weekend getaway in Cape May. When we arrived at the hotel, we waited for 25 minutes for someone to take care of us. Our room was tiny to say the least. At night, we noticed blood droplets on a pillow of one bed and more droplets on another bed. The toilet plugged up twice by the lack of water flow. The noise coming through the paper thin walls was most disturbing, making it very hard to find some sleep. When checking out, we noticed on our bill that they charged us an additional $60 for an extra person. When I questioned the front desk staff about the charge, he said that I would have to wait until the following Monday to talk to the manager. We were very unsatisfied with this experience and will never go back to this hotel. This is the first negative review that I have ever posted but this was also the worst hotel experience that I have ever had.

Great escape

Great rooms (suite); they upgraded us to their to-of-the-line at no extra cost because of low vacancy. Wonderful ocean views off balcony. The bed was very comfortable, and everything looked new/clean. Other than no coffee filters, the kitchenette seemed well stocked.

It's small and you usually have to make planned reservations, but Louisa's little restaurant (hole-in-the-wall) is wonderful.

Great Location

The location was great -- beach across the street and walking distance to everything downtown, including several restaurants wothing checking out. For the price, it was on the run down side, and the bathroom could have been cleaner (floor was slippery with soap). The breakfast buffet was included and was a good way to start the day.

Great location. Great balcony.

The location was the best. It is directly across from the beach. We sat on nice rocking chairs on our private balcony, felt the ocean breeze and watched the waves crashing into the sand. It is a short walk to all downtown restaurants, bars, stores and playhouses. A short drive to recreational activities. A very convenient and adequate private parking lot.
