Stayed here for the weekend. Service was absolutely amazing. Everyone was extremely kind and helpful. If you’re looking to have a nice quick vacation getaway weekend on a cheap budget this is definitely the place to go plus beautiful views of the beach and Cape May lighthouse. 😁

Not sure what the other rooms are like, but the one we had was very outdated, rust on the a/c and a very uncomfortable bed. No grab bar to assist getting in and out of the bathtub. The best part was the closeness to the beach, which is why we picked it.

Shower wasn't working. Also no phone in the room. Should have a phone in case cell phone doesn't work. Getting into room was difficult sometimes trying to unlock the door. Really bad wifi service, couldn't use the internet. There was a filter in the room that stopped working and I was not sure how to turn it off and on. Didn't care for the wicker basket style wood furniture. Bed was comfortable and the fridge worked pretty well. Wouldn't recommend coming here overall.

Very cute and quaint setting, but definitely an older building with issues. The tub did not drain so every time you took a shower you were standing in your own filthy water asked for this to be addressed. They tried to fix it, but unfortunately, he told me the pipes were so old that they would have to basically Rip out the piping and go through the wall, which obviously could not happen while we were in the room, never made an attempt to move us to a different room so the days we stayed there we had to deal with the backed up water in the tub.

The location was close to the beach and in a quiet area. I was on the ground floor though and heard the people above me a lot. Rooms are a little outdated and the plug in the bathroom was broken. For the price, it's a decent place to stay. Staff was nice and helpful.

We stayed at The Jetty over Memorial Day weekend and had a lovely time. You cant beat the price for such a great location. The staff was super friendly and helpful, and our neighbors were kind and quiet during the appropriate times. The room was a bit dated, like others said, but it had everything we needed and was clean and safe. We found the bed comfortable. The restaurant next door also had a great breakfast. We would definitely stay again!

This quaint retro motel has a great location on the West side, walkable to downtown, quiet, and right on the beach. There are nature preserves and trails nearby as well as the boardwalk and dining options. The room was clean and well maintained and the front desk staff were super friendly and helpful.

What an adorable place to stay! I was in town to watch my son graduate from Coast Guard boot camp and I couldn’t have picked a better spot. Not only was I steps from the sand, but my room had a perfect view of the Lighthouse from the kitchen window. The kitchen was stocked with everything I needed to eat my leftovers from dining out, it was very clean, and I slept peacefully listening to the waves crashing outside my window. If you’re in good walking shape, you can walk pretty much anywhere you want to go. My ex husband booked a more expensive resort room down the road and was jealous I had a better view of the ocean. I was so lucky to able to check in early after a nightmare red eye flight, and as a gardener, I absolutely loved the garden next to the pool growing my favorites-tomatoes, berries, squash, sunflowers. I love how supportive the town is of the Coast Guard and their families, and I met so many wonderful people during my short stay. This will definitely be a place on my list to return. Thank you for everything! It was a great first trip to the East Coast!

Great location.

Nice beachfront hotel. Incredible location. The room was very clean. Just a bit dated. The bed was incredibly soft and I’m not going to say that was good. But I really don’t want to complain otherwise!
