I booked with Wildwood as it was where my parents spents their honey moon 58 years ago, and the location worked for my work route. ($17/night in 1967! Lol) Hotel was comfy enough, I think there is some obvious aging happening in the bathroom, making things feel grungy. Staff was friendly at check in. Room had no heat on when I entered and was very cold!

Liked: Amenities
Staff was very courteous. It was an easy check in. The room was satisfactory. The bathroom is outdated - very rusty heat rad - no safety bars for the bathtub. The fridge was not clean - the freezer was so bad you could not open it and something had been spilled in the fridge making it very sticky. I did a quick wipe before using it but needs a real good cleaning. Double beds were more like 3/4 beds. Comfortable and clean. It served the purpose as a place to sleep during our stay.

The lady at the front desk was very nice and the outside of the motel was in good repair. Inside our room we found the shower curtain was not washed and had many stains on it. The tub was not clean and had dark rings of dirt from previous users. Which was a shame because I was really looking forward to have a bath and definitely did not as it was visible dirty and had black mild in the corners. The beds were clean & comfortably. The furniture was updated and the tv worked fine.

The motel was exactly what you should expect from its rating. There are no real food options nearby other than Tim's and Subway. The toilet ran constantly unless you jiggled the handle, things were dusty so it was a quick clean. The cleaner must have been a smoker because the room smelled like cigarettes when we checked in but the smell was gone when we came back later that night. The bedding was in rough shape. Essentially, it was what you would expect from a 2-star motel. If you go in with that mindset, you're fine. If you're expecting something else, keep driving.
