Fountain Motel — Hotel in Wildwood

Here is my honest review and to why I am giving this place a 5/5.

I came here with 3 of my other friends for a birthday celebration and a mini vacation. We all shared a room.

We weren’t looking for a fancy place to stay (since most of our time were outdoors) but this place had everything we wanted and needed. A kitchen, a bathroom, bedroom, and a small section to dine, a pool, etc. From my experience, a lot of motels like motel 6 don’t have a kitchen, but this place does. And sure the furniture and the floor might be a little outdated..but we’re talking about a family-friendly motel here… this isn’t Hilton guys 😭. And for the price that you’re paying, this place isn’t even bad at all.

When we arrived, we could tell the sheets were clean (you can tell by the fresh laundry scent) but the best part about this motel is that they use Mattress Protection Covers. I don't think I’ve seen anyone write a review mentioning that, but it puts me at ease to know that they care enough to protect their clients and their mattress from bed bugs, etc. But because I didn’t know if they had mattress protection or not, I brought my own sheets and a blanket.

I had no problem with parking (I parked in the back which is closer to my room), but a block down in Taylor Ave, my friend was lucky enough to find parking there (free parking).

I also had no problem with the water pressure in our bathroom. It wasn’t tinkling or sprinkling, It was working fine for us and it remained hot (remember, there’s four of us).

For it's location, it's amazing. I am so happy that it was super close to the beach and we didn't have to walk a long way to get there. It's also pretty cool that it’s near Wildwood Convention Center too.

Service This is my favorite part. After vacation, my friend dropped my bag while checking out which prompted my airpod to get left behind but I didn't realize it was missing until the next day. Im not going to lie, I was extremely upset about this and I didn’t think it would still be there (like I thought it would be stolen by now) but when I contacted the owner at this property (lovely lady by the way), she told me she would look into it, and when she did, it was there! She dropped it at the UPS for me and I got my airpod the next day. Far and Beyond, thank you so much !

The only thing I would suggest is that you might want to bring ear plugs because I did hear the upstairs tenants stomping around at night but my friend was also snoring like a bear and I didn’t know she snored so bring em...

This place was ok at best...my room was full of Flys, every time we killed a few more would just appear. The window air conditioning unit was busted, i tried changing the temp to 80° & it was still alway freezing, me and the kids could not sleep comfortably, also I know motel beds aren't the best but ugh these were the most uncomfortable we've ever slept in. The rules said I had to make sure I washed any dishes I used in the kitchenette or I'd be charged $50! Not for anything but isn't that why the maid services are included in pricing, But there is no turn down service and she only comes by spacial request, they make sure to leave her envelope for a tip though. Also pool hours are kinda annoying 10am to 7pm! That's just crazy during the summer my kids wanna be in from sun up till way past 7pm but oh well. The cleanliness was ok as well, the dishes I had come to use were not that clean to begin with, bathroom had a huge black water stain on the ground and the room kinda smells but that's just wildwood motels in general right? Lol, friendly staff &...

Really do not understand how they received a rating of 4 stars. If I could give it 0 stars I would We stayed in Room 44. The room is very old and extremely outdated. The bathroom was tiny, no tub just a tight shower. I am not a big person and found it hard to shower. There was no hair dryer, no towel rack no toilet paper holder in the bathroom. Also sink was really tiny . There was a medicine cabinet above the sink but beware it sticks out and the sink is so small I almost hit my head while I was rinsing after brushing my teeth. The room did not have a closet. It had a dropped ceiling with stained tiles. Had 2 lamps but the light bulbs were so dim. The light switches when you first walk in do not work and are really old .Felt really dirty that it made me feel itchy. Thankfully it was just a 2 night stay and I spent most of the time out of the room. The beds were hard as a rock and so uncomfortable with no headboard. Would never stay here again even if the room was free. They need to do some major...
