Sunset Motel

Sad to say what a disappointment. Paid in advance and arrived around 1:30, with check in at 2. Was told room would not be ready until 3. Returned at 3 and room still not ready, in fact they were still washing bed linens and towels because they were short staffed. I had to help make the bed because we just wanted to get in our room. When signing papers to finalize entrance to our room we were told we still had to be out by 10 even though we could not get our room on time. Had to sign a security paper with credit card info as a damage waiver, I asked if we could get it back after room inspection, but when we wanted to leave and asked for room inspection to get our waiver paper returned clerk refused to inspect room and return paper. Very disappointed and would NOT recommend

First let me say this is the second stay at this motel for the wife and I. Management has apparently changed. Not for the better IMO. Reservation was made for a midweek overnight stay with payment in full. Check in time 2pm. We showed up about 20 minutes early. Room not ready till at least 3 or 3:30 pm manager says! Wow lacking big time. Went up to the boardwalk to kill some time. Came back about 3 pm. Room still not ready! Really? Finally got into room after 3:30pm. Basic room $ 99 night + tax and fees= $ 115. Room comes with beach badges but the late check in messed that up. You have to sign damage waiver in case you mess the place up the can just charge your card. Went to check out the next morning early but no one available at desk. Waited for manager then asked if she could check our room? Then I can get our waiver back.(it has your CC # on it) manager said «I can’t do that now». So we left and never to return to this place again. I read that the rooms were all remodeled but it was no different than last year.
+ a few minutes to Boardwalk, AC was cold.
Look elsewhere for something better.

The location is great! That is the only good thing about this place. Our room was horrible the shower was disgusting; the shower curtain had mold. So gross. The bed was a disaster. The box spring was a full size and the mattress was a queen. That doesn’t really work well. It was horrible to sleep on. There was no table; which would of been nice. Asking for clean towels was like a travesty for the staff. The staff was nice but slow to do everything. I wouldn’t stay here again it’s not worth the price which isn’t good anyway. Keep looking.

Only thing i liked about this location, is the location… Besides that they had tv issues, they had to replace 3 times in 2 days, room didnt look all that clean, room had no iron, and when i wanted to check out there was nobody there to make sure it was ok and give me a receipt of charge, in my opinion i wouldnt do this again, ill give 1 star only cuz of location.

We stayed in one of the Jacuzzi suites for a few days in July. The motel has been recently remodeled, so you have to look at the more recent reviews to get an accurate idea of what to expect. When we first arrived, we were pleasantly surprised by how new and clean everything was. Seaside has a tendency to get a little grimy with all the high school and college crowds that pass through, but the management at Sunset Motel were clearly on top of things. They were always around to take care of any concerns we may have had, though none ever arose. We had a DJ staying in the room above us and never even noticed, though the management had the foresight to let us know he was there and to let them know right away if it ever became disruptive to our stay. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience, and I don’t think I’ll ever stay anywhere else on the boardwalk again.
Oh, and the generous amount of bubble bath they leave for the hot tub is a major bonus. Even if you think you’re too old for bubble baths, you’re not. You will use them all, and you will love every minute of it.

Stayed here one night and was not impressed by anything but the location to the beach and boardwalk. The room was very dirty, the fridge didn’t get cold and the sofa sleeper left a lot to be desired. It was completely flat, felt like sleeping on springs. The people who work here though were very friendly, so that’s a plus. Didn’t take advantage of their new sundecks and pool but they looked nice. Honestly, I’d keep looking for a nicer hotel.

The place is beautiful, the staff is outstanding and you can’t beat the location. LOVED IT!

Stayed here on a tuesday with a group of girlfriends. The owner was very helpful and pleasant. Room was pretty clean for a seaside heights hotel, enough room for 6 of us. Owners did not bother us once about anything, had a very pleasant experience here.
