Property was as best you could get for the price! Absolutely thrilled with our stay. Pool was still open for Irish Weekend and was heated!! Beds were clean and moderately comfortable. Had a nice tv, table spot to hang jackets and a nice closet space with a microwave and mini fridge. Air conditioner was a bit outdated but kicked ass, keeping the room cold. Bathroom was maybe the only downside: shower was great but the area where the toilet and sink made for an uncomfortable sit, especially if you are on the bigger side. Ceiling also looked a little moldy but I was expecting way worse for a motel. We had quick access to the boardwalk, less than an 5min walk. Had a liquor store across the street. The 2nd floor had some chairs and a grill if you wanted to cook. Management was nice and was quick to respond when we had a personal issue and also let us check in an hour early at no charge. Towels available upon request, easy peasy. They allowed us to park wherever we could find space at either hotel area (The own the Wave hotel next door too). Overall it was an amazing stay and I would definitely go back again!!

We stayed at the Tropicana in August 2025 for two nights, after having a positive experience in 2024. This time, however, there were a few noticeable differences. Last year, a continental breakfast was included, which our kids especially enjoyed. This year, the only options in the lounge were pre-packaged muffins and bagels, which was disappointing. Our room was as expected and consistent with our previous stay, though the bathroom felt more run down. The toilet had stains and an ill-fitting seat cover, and there was black grout along the sink and shower. We stayed Thursday through Saturday and didn’t experience any issues with noise, which we appreciated. However, the stairwell area was not well maintained. Each morning we noticed trash around the stairs and underneath them, though it did get swept later in the day. The pool is a good size and the kids enjoyed it, but it wasn’t cleaned before opening. We had to skim out debris ourselves in the morning. While the pool staff came around mid-morning to vacuum sand, this ideally should have taken place before guests start swimming. Overall, while we still enjoyed parts of our stay, the upkeep and amenities did not meet the standard we experienced in 2024.

This hotel was one of the dirtiest I’ve ever stayed in. From the moment I arrived, I was disappointed. The stairs leading up to the rooms were filthy, and the parking lot for this motel was umm not so great let’s just say. When I entered my room, things only got worse. The room was much smaller than advertised, which already felt misleading. Then I noticed my bed sheets had sand in them, and the floor was gritty as well. It was obvious the sheets hadn’t been changed, and the room hadn’t been cleaned properly before my stay. That alone is unacceptable. The worst part was the bathroom—there was an overwhelming amount of mold covering the ceiling. It was so disgusting I almost didn’t want to use it at all. Mold is a serious health hazard, and the fact that the hotel allows guests to stay in those conditions is alarming.
