    It will much better when the elevator gets working. Being on the 3rd floor for older folks with luggage can be difficult. The room was small but clean except I forgot to tell the front desk that there were little ants on counter.

    I haven't stayed at a motel at the Jersey Shore in quite a while. I don't know what other towns are doing but Cape May has taken the typical Jersey Shore experience up quite a few notches. We felt like we were at a resort! Beach lounges and chairs...
