The owner/manager definitely needs to brush up on people skills. This man was rude beyond belief right from the get go, talking down to the motel guests. My family and I and several other families booked our stay at The Palm Beach last week. It was a nightmare the minute we arrived, the rates were not as we discussed when we made our reservations, after we finally settled on the rate, we checked in to our room. The refrigerator had rust all over it, the carpet had stains that looked like they have been there for years, the bedspreads were filthy and to add insult to injury there was used tissue in between the bedsheets. The laundry room was out of order, when we asked if and when it would be repaired, their response was that it has been out of order since last summer. When we expressed our dissapointement, we were told by the manager/owner that there was a laundramat up the road and if we didn't like it, well just too bad. The barbeque grills were old and filthy and didn't work half the time. The pool water temperature must have been at least 100 degrees, it was more like a hot tub. We tried looking for other accomadations in the area but they were all booked, meanwhile the Palm Beach was at 50% vacancy. I wonder why?. These are the same owners as The Grand Hotel and Singapore Hotel also in Wildwood Crest.
Looks like the owners are just plain tired of the hotel business and are letting these properties go to the dumps.
If vacationing in Wildwood, whatever you do, look elsewhere.
