The location is great - right on the beach - and it was nice to have a full bedroom plus the pull-out and a kitchenette. That said, the lack of anything but a single towel rack surprised me - after all, everyone has wet items to manage while at the beach. I am not sure how different the rooms are, but in ours, it felt like the furniture was jammed in and purchased one piece at a time rather than planned to fit the space or look good together.
We had two bedrooms, 3 beds plus pullout sofa, so room was comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with plates and utensils and clean. Grandchildren enjoyed the pool, except closing at 8:30 seemed pretty early for a vacation spot. Pool staff, housekeeping and front desk staff were pleasant and helpful. I would have gladly given this location a 4 - 4.5 rating except the manager was miserable. I heard her yell at kids, chewed out an employee right out where anyone could hear and really quite cold when you asked a question or requested something. I probably would consider returning if we needed that big of a room but if I could get by any place else I would not.
We arrived late in the evening for our check in. The staff called us to make sure we were still coming. Very pleasant office staff. The back stairs to our room were a little rickety and scary. The main stairs to the third floor where are room was were better. Nice big room, large living area. 2 tvs, two twin beds. The bathroom was a little small, but I find most of the hotels in Wildwood have small bathrooms. We did not get a chance to check out the pool or game area as we were there for a convention and visiting family.

Sorry you experienced a bad stay. We have a problem when people have their party grow once they arrive. As far as my being nasty to children and or employees, sometimes children only listen when you raise your voice but I go to the child and speak directly to try and avoid problems such as this.
