Sea Palace Inn - Motel in Seaside Heights - 136 Sumner Ave, USA

Best location ever. Very caring, friendly staff. Rooms clean enough (better than a LOT of Jersey shore motel rooms). Beds are VERY comfortable. Would definitely stay again. Just bring a washcloth (there are none) and give the water a good 3-5 min to heat up. But these are just the fun quirks of these types of places.

We were a party of 6 and when we arrived they charged us an additional $120 when the rooms are to sleep up to 6. Place is worn down and people around were a little sketchy. It did have an elevator that sounded like it was going to break down any minute. The swimming pool was very small but did the job definitely in need of a sanding and pant job which doesn't take much to make it look more appealing to your guests.

The room is spacious and clean. The staff were very kind and helpful. It was just an overall great experience.

We were only coming here for the weekend so a one night stay was all we needed. We wanted to keep it on the cheaper side due to that. 400$ later we are in a room, Room 1 on the motel side to be exact - with ants, cracked tiles, doors that aren't sealed, plate covers that wiggle and have holes on the sides. There was a musty smell when walking in as well. The fridge on the outside and inside is rusted and gross. We didn't need much, service was nice, but showering, toileting and brushing our teeth with ants...sorry, not a fan. Not to mention a stained with God only knows what shower curtain and leak work painted right over. The shower knobs are ready to fall off if you pull them any harder, which stinks because the shower looks as if it was redone, semi. Maybe and hopefully the other side is better, but honestly staying here freaked us out a bit. The people staying here look as if they live here and stare at you and make you feel increasingly uncomfortable. Not to mention the pool has ZERO safety line going across telling you there is a massive drop off for children. My nephew found out the hard way and struggled to walk back up the insane ramp that plummets down to the deep end.

this motel was probably the worst place I’ve ever stepped foot in. You walk into the room and the bedding is ancient along with brown pillows and pillowcases with blood stains in them. yes, blood stains. (images attached). shower water doesn’t get warm, flies everywhere along with gnats, one flew by just typing this. photos also attached of that. we dropped water on the floor and went to wipe it up and the towel was brown. this place is close to the beach, but it’s genuinely disgusting to sleep in. service is horrible as well they don’t tend your room and don’t give you towels till two days after you run out. wifi doesn’t work and there is no service in the building as well. Listen to me and stay away from this place.

There were really no issues except for the stains on the pillow covers and bed. Besides that's, everything was of great quality. Room service offered to clean our rooms before we settled down. The rooms overall have a nice style to them, and the overall cleanliness is good. The beds are very comfortable, and they make sure to add tons of additions such as plastic coverings on the bed box. They even come with soap bars and packaged conditioner. It feels nice to walk into the air conditioned room after a walk in a boardwalk or the beach in the hot sun. Overall, I'd recommend this place if you want to stay somewhere.

Nice and clean rooms staff was very kind and helpful

Booked this hotel a month before our stay, the pictures online showed an alright room, average. Showed up and got our room an hour early, but I would have rather waited the extra hour if it meant better cleaning. Walked in, the mirror was damaged, bathroom lights barely worked, made weird noises. The bathroom was filled with ants, even in the shower, which took forever to warm up. When taking a shower, I had to pull curly hair off of the slightly stained, damp towels. Was no toilet paper on the roll. There was cigarette burns in one of the beds blankets (we had a no smoking room). The pillows were slightly stained as well, definitely ashes. The biggest bed in the room caved in, in the middle, and sounded broken every time you moved. Floor was pretty sticky, needed to be swept. For the money we paid, I was expecting decent appliances at the least, there was no ironing board, hair dryer, coffee pot, not even a single piece of paper on the place/ area/ wifi. Pictures online don’t match the room, but it is close to the board walk and beach, the employees where very polite however.
