Great staff, great location and rooms were very nice.
Pros:

The location was perfect. It was very clean and well thought out.
The staff was engaging, friendly and respectful.

Cons:

I am assuming at some point the cast iron drains were replaced with PVC which lets you hear water draining from other rooms. No inconvenience with operation but noticeable.

AN EXCELLENT STAY IN A GOOD LOCATION
Pros:

The hotel was excellent. Staff was extremely helpful and friendly, and our room was large and comfortable. There is a continental breakfast which is more than adequate with bagels, cereals, coffee/tea and donuts. The location is fabulous - across the road from the beach and within walking distance to many restaurants and bars. Cape May itself is charming with many Victorian mansions. An excellent stay.

Cons:

Nothing

Great place. Owners/workers are extremely friendly and helpful.
Pros:

The room was exceptionally clean. Very bare bones but it is all that is needed for a beach stay. Plenty of towels are provided.

Cons:

The only complaint is the quality of the TV.
