Perfect hotel in a perfect little town

Everything about The Ocean Plaza is exquisite: it's VERY clean and comfortable, the location is perfect, the staff is friendly and helpful, the building is in superb condition inside & out, and the breakfast spread is extensive. There are great restaurants nearby, the boardwalk is long and lovely, and Asbury Park is a charming place to visit (in particular, Cookman Ave). My wife and I are already planning our next stay.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room is not conducive to restful sleep. The pillows are small and stuffed with small chunks of foam, the mattress is very firm, the room gets very hot in the winter (even when you cover the vents fully) and the shades let the outdoor lights in. They should also sand off the mark left by a used condom on the dresser.

Stayed here just one night to attend a party nearby. It was off season so we do t go to the beach but you could see the ocean from our room. Our room was nice. The staff was friendly and helpful and breakfast was good.
