The hype

Residence Inn by Marriott Ocean Township
$155-220/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You need a full kitchen and space for the family near Asbury Park but don't want to pay boardwalk prices.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- 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)
Kurzfassung: A functional suburban basecamp that suffers from highway noise and inconsistent housekeeping.
Bewertet von @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!
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
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
Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung
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.

5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren
💡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.
