The hype
Guests love the location and room size but frequently complain about noise and hit-or-miss cleaning standards.

Boek dit als You need a full kitchen and space for the family near Asbury Park but don't want to pay boardwalk prices.
Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Spacious suites with full kitchens (stove, fridge, dishwasher)
- 10-minute drive to Asbury Park boardwalk and beaches
- Free hot breakfast that actually includes protein (eggs, sausage)
Snel Overzicht: A functional suburban basecamp that suffers from highway noise and inconsistent housekeeping.
Beoordeeld door @willianaashley: I stayed here for a quick trip near Asbury Park and was blown away by the value. The sports complex and indoor pool are amazing for families, and the Studio King room felt huge. It’s hard to find free breakfast this good nowadays—definitely recommending this spot!
Gast die hier verbleef zei
Reality check
The 'soundproof' curtains installed years ago don't fully block the highway roar, and recent reports of 'blood in the shower' and 'hair on the floor' suggest housekeeping is cutting corners.
- You are traveling with kids and need a separate living area
- You want to cook your own meals to save money
- You need a reliable spot near Monmouth University
Schoonmaak & Onderhoud
7
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Some guests report 'immaculate' rooms, others find 'crumbs in the closet' and missed trash.
- Bathroom hygiene: Concerning recent reports of 'blood in the shower', 'hair all over the floor', and 'moldy grout'. Inspect upon arrival.
- Maintenance: Aging gracefully but showing cracks—reports of 'loose handles', 'noisy AC', and 'peeling paint'.
- Linens & towels: Generally clean, but one disturbing report of 'skid marks' on sheets suggests quality control lapses.
- Odors & scents: Mostly neutral, though some rooms have a lingering 'musty' or 'damp' smell from the AC units.

Tips van Insiders

The William F. Larkin Golf Course nearby is a 'best kept secret' 9-hole course perfect for a quick round.

Skip the hotel coffee and hit the 'Turning Point' restaurant in the same complex for a real espresso.

Ask for a 'hearing accessible' room if you want extra visual alerts, but sometimes these rooms are also slightly larger.
5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat
💡The 'soundproof curtains' installed in 2017 help, but they don't stop the vibration of heavy trucks.
💡Some bathrooms have had recent reports of 'moldy showers' and 'loose handles'—check your plumbing immediately.
💡The pull-out sofa beds are notoriously thin and uncomfortable; do not rely on them for an adult.
