Pretty nice place, good location. I had a room that shared an adjoining door with the room next. Sadly the door was paper thin and everything from the adjoining room could be heard clearly. Not ideal especially when you don’t know the neighbor’s and one is a snorer.

Very clean, friendly staff. One block from the beach. It was very quiet but I must add that we were there off season. Our door knob was very loose and the staff came immediately to fix it. Loved the large walk in showers and the beds were very comfortable. Definitely will be back.

Absolutely loved staying here for the first time and will definitely be back! The property was very clean and nicely maintained. Staff was friendly and very helpful. The area around the motel was gorgeous. The property was only a block away from the beach on both sides and within walking distance. Highly recommend staying here!

Well-kept modern motel just one block from the beach and a couple of blocks from shopping and restaurants. Basic amenities but the room isn’t the attraction. The beach is!

Our stay was at end of November, well outside of the high season. The motel Inn was wonderful. Everything was in top condition. Dan, the owner of the property was onsite and welcomed us. On or off season, it would be hard to beat the Lamplight Inn for a Jersey shore stay!
