Very nice staff, friendly and helpful all around. From what I have heard Wildwood is motels that are very seasonal, so do not to expect some four star place. It was everything advertised and compared to other places well worth the money. I would stay again.

The property was very clean. The pool was warm and beautiful. I was on the 5th floor and woke up to the sunrise every morning! My only suggestion is that the elevator needs a good cleaning.
