Do not stay here. There are places in the area much cheaper and closet to the boardwalk. Most of the staff is nice but we booked for 4adults and were given one full size bed and a set of bunk beds with a weight limitation of 165. We were given a room with 2 full size beds once we told the front desk it was literally dangerous to sleep there, but in that first room: One of the 2 showers had NO water pressure The sink for the bunk beds room was in the room by the bed, not the bathroom There were still broken bits of soap and half used toiletries under the beds where someone neglected to clean properly And all the showers in the whole building are unpredictable. It is an older hotel so I wasn't too shocked the water worked like an old house but any time anyone in the whole hotel would touch a faucet, toilet, or God forbid, another shower it would either be ice cold or BURNING hot. I'm not sure why the hotel would even have a setting that hot which can be adjusted on the water heater. I left with burn marks on my back that I had to sleep on for the first two nights until sunburn covered up the pain from the shower. There were bits of paper in all of the light fixtures which made me not want to use them. I felt like it was a fire hazard. And in both of our first room showers there was sand and grimy grossness all over like no one had even attempted to clean them. And then me and my boyfriend and mom and dad get to the new room and : there's no door between my parents bed and ours. There's a spot with a track like there's supposed to be a fold up door there but it's gone. We had to hang a sheet from a nail in the wall to the broken mirror frame as a barrier. There Are holes in our tile ceiling all over Water spills out of the shower every time you're in it (trying not to burn yourself) That shower was also still covered in sand from the family before you. There is no spot to put clean towels in the shower area because again the sink was in the nation main room by my parents bed. As soon as we got our new room, there was no fitted sheet or mattress cover on my mattress and it literally had blood stains on it. I asked for our beds to have fitted sheets and the front desk woman even told me she thought that was gross. We got our fitted sheet. So that fixed it. There were also used toiletries under these beds. Outside on the patio, the chair cushions were used and very worn out. The kind of worn out where you feel like part of the cushion is gritty and on your legs when you get up. All in all, the workers at the front desk were polite and helpful, however, the rooms just showed neglect and disarray. I will not be coming back, as this was actually our most expensive weekly rent to date compared to places in the area. It just seems like the man that runs the place knows there will always be someone desperate for a place to rent so he doesn't feel the need to take care of the space.

I have never left a 1-star review in my life. But... We booked the room for two adults and four kids. Upon arrival there was no pull out couch and only beds for four. When I told the front desk they explained that we could sleep on the couch and they would send down an air mattress. The air mattress immediately began deflating. They sent another, it deflated over night. My son basically slept on the floor. No one seemed to care from the management and looked at me like expecting a bed in a hotel room was insane. The room was fairly gross, it was musty and smelled of mold, you can see the peeling paint in the pictures and the chipped paint on the counters, etc. It looks like they painted the counters in a semi-gloss that is now sticky and pretty gross. The room opens up to the street, no mention of that on their website so noise from the street would be pretty bad if it wasn't for the extremely loud window a/c units drowning it out. The blinds don't cover the entire window so we had to cover it with a towel for privacy from the sidewalk. No one ever changed out towels or made up the beds. The soap they provide is the cheapest available and the shower doesn't drain unless you hold the drain button down while you shower. The maintenance guy tried to explain that there is a trick to it and I needed to push the drain button twice, but I couldn't figure out his system. It may have been easier for him to just fix it, but this was just par for the course at this place. It's got a great location, just two blocks from the boardwalk and I suppose that's how they get away with charging so much and providing so little. Buyer beware.

Upon reading the reviews of this place, I was especially skeptical about our stay. My boyfriend and I had a 2 night stay planned before our family would join us for the remainder of the week in a house. I’m so glad we had some faith based off the good reviews because we really ended up enjoying our stay in this hotel. It was super close to both the boardwalk and the town. Only a few blocks from our favorite breakfast spot “The Chatterbox.” While it is out dated in some aspects, it was very clean, not a single trace of a bug. It reminded me of my families shore house growing up. Our room was also very tiny, but that didn’t bother us at all because we only planned on sleeping and resting there. The parking was very convenient (we did get lucky and got a very close spot and just stayed parked throughout our stay…side note: on the day of checkout, you can stay parked until 3PM which is very helpful!!) The veranda out front was so beautiful, both during the day and at night and it had the most comfortable chairs. We had a corner room, which was also really nice because it was quiet and we woke up to bright sunshine (we like that) as we had 3 windows. The walls are thin (again the building is old) so you do hear doors closing, but not much more than that. At night we could hear people on the street and cars beeping, but we didn’t mind it, it was a nice white noise. I would definitely give this place a chance. I can’t say much about the pool or other amenities, as we didn’t utilize them, but for a 2-night stay, as a couple, it was perfect! We would definitely stay here again.

I stayed at The Blue Water Inn this weekend and had an absolutely horrifying experience. I booked the apartment number three. When my eleven year old daughter pulled out the pull-out couch to sleep on it there was clothes, dirty napkins, a vape, a blanket, a used condom and an empty condom wrapper in it. When I tried to close the bed after seeing that the mattress had flipped up and there was blood on the under side of the mattress. There was also trash under the couch. I went to the office to get the issue resolved and there was no one at the desk. When I had knocked on the office door someone came out and cursed me out because that is not an office it is a private room. There were two signs on the desk with two different numbers to call and neither of those umbers worked. The sign also said to was down to The Forum for help. When I had walked down there that front desk person had called the property manager and I was promised that someone would be at my room at 8:00 to resolve the issue. I was also let known that I would be reimbursed for my room. I waited until 12:00 the next day and then went to the office. Everyone in the office at The Blue Water was zero help and was extremely ignorant. I made them take the couch out of the room and they rolled me in a cot. I asked them for chairs with backs so that we would have something to sit on so we didnt have to sit on the beds and I never got those chairs. There were six bar stools around the counter and two of them were not able to be used. One of the stool has no screws in the top. I brought the two no good stools to the front desk. I was reimbursed and then charged again the next day. I got half way home to Philadelphia and had to turn around and go back because no one at the hotel was answering the phone. They reimbursed my card while I was standing there and I was given a receipt and reassured that I would not be charged anymore. The I was charged AGAIN after I left the hotel. I have been staying there for years and I have never had such a bad experience there in my life. There were fights the whole weekend with underage children. There was no where to park. The whole parking lot had cars in there that didnt have hotel...

Absolute hogwash of an experience. Let's begin with the steep climb of stairs that welcomed me to this absolute pile of trash named the "Blue Water Inn." It's generous to call this dump an inn. It felt like a homeless shelter. The walls were deteriorating in front of my eyes and the floors were tilted. They were so slanted, I felt like I would slip off the side of the earth just to get to my room. Every nook and cranny of this miserable establishment had a flaw. My room came with no bed and when I asked the front lady how this happened, she told me they had to order a new one seeing as the old one was infested with bed bugs and other delightful creatures. I did, however, receive an air mattress that lasted about 3 hours before it deflated. My son, unfortunately, had to sleep in the shower cubicle that was more depressing than a state prison cell. After 2 days of sleeping in the cubicle, he contracted a disease and seemed to have also gotten Covid-19 from the shower curtain. He was quarantined in the bathroom, meaning I also lost my only way to relieve myself. I also lost my a/c, which was located in the bathroom (who designed this???). It also seems someone thought it would be a good idea to duct tape the TV onto the ceiling (was this part of the architecture?????). At least they were generous enough to give the guests 3-month-old Cheerios for breakfast (for free!). Not to mention, I had a better chance of getting struck by lightning than to get in contact with the owners. It seems they all magically fly away whenever I have an issue with this homeless shelter they call an inn. I would rather go back to my days in Vietnam where I stayed in a hut made of wooden sticks with horrible living conditions than stay one more night at the...
