Too many restrictions for the price per night. The location is perfect, but the all of the outdoor furniture needs to be updated (mold). The frig shelves were rusted I would not rent there again.

We had a good stay at the Roman Holiday Motel with our children. Everything was very clean and in good condition, some rooms partially upgraded with new spacious kitchenettes, we loved having an actual big fridge traveling with kids. The pool was heated and the Kids’ favorite. Staff was very friendly and helpful, even took time to find us a tool that we unexpectedly needed. A nearby small grocery store with deli was a good option to stock up on snacks as well as great breakfast and dinner sandwiches. Very close to easily accessible beach. Didn’t use it, but tram to major boardwalk was in walking distance.

Loved our room- the living space was nice for 6 of us. I would like to try for a 2 bedroom next year (had the 1 bedroom this year). Being ocean front was wonderful. The pool was nice. Easy enough walk to boardwalk.

Book room through Expedia for 5 nights, the hotel called me and said the room was only available for the first 2 night and we would have to move rooms. I feel Expedia should of know that . Inconvient to move my whole family 2 days into our vacation . We should of be accomadated on some way . We had to move ourselves no help from hotel employees .

Perfect room for our needs. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality for the price. It was clean, comfortable, and decorated like a home away from home. Ample dishes, cooking supplies, and bedding. The pool was the perfect temperature and the staff was friendly and very accommodating. The location is a short walk from the end of the boardwalk, just far enough away to not have the excess noise but convenient enough that it was only a short walk. The "partial view" from the room is exquisite. The only thing I would warn about is the ac is really loud for central air as the unit is located in the bedroom. It didn't bother us though. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend.

Basic motel in a great location
Great location. You can't get any closer to the beach. This is a basic motel. Don't set your sights too high and you won't be disappointed. Across the street from the beach. The room was clean and sufficient. There were 4 of us (my wife and 2 teenagers). We spent both days at the beach which is what we went for.

Don't stay at Roman Holiday
Room 104 is the worst!!! Do not stay at the motel. Location is close to beach but very windy at that end of the shore. Room 104 had carpet which stinks like wet dog. We had brand new socks on after a few minutes they were getting black on the bottom. It had chipped paint which we had to complain about. Doesn't seem that the cleaning service does it job correctly. That room should be gutted and rebuilt. Really annoying thing they did, they turn off the wifi at night.

Clean,well appointed hotel near beach Boardwalk
We checked in the day after Labor Day,We arrived at 2:00 and checked into the room.it was as advertised fully equipped with cooking and eating appliances and utensils.It was well maintained and clean.The pool was Southren exposure,a welcome relief from the beating sun on a hot,humid day.The beach was nice and close as was the boardwalk.We were able to dry bathing suits and towels in the laundry room.The deck area had comfortable chaises and tables with umbrella and chairs.The view from oceanfront rooms were beautiful.We had a room by the pool which was convenient.It was a good time to visit and the crowd was older like ourselves.I would consider doing this venue again.

Little Paradise in North Wildwood
Lovely Motel with a perfect location, wonderful heated pool that's up to 8 ft deep, and friendly staff. Rooms are more then comfortable, like having your own apartment with a living room and kitchen. Right across the street from the beach and just 3 blocks from the boardwalk. What more could you ask for.

Booked for a reunion weekend. Great friendly staff. Pool was always busy. Beach right across the street. Walking distance to North Wildwood and the Boardwalk. Rooms were clean and comfortable enough, although older as typical for Jersey shore. Full refrigerator,microwave, coffee pot and two stove burners. I would stay again.

Nice Location But
The good news is that the unit was clean and the bed was comfortable. The bad news is that the unit smelled very musty and the rug felt very damp. Although there are many units with ocean or pool views, our unit looked at a parking lot. The maid did not service our room one day. Overall, we were not very happy with our accommodation.

I am so very happy that I came across the Roman Holiday Hotel! It is a real gem! Very clean and well maintained in a beautiul part of North Wildwood.Very easy and convenient to get to off the Garden State. The staff were very friendly and willing to offer any help, right down to local movie times and directions to anywhere. Being right across the street from the beach with easy parking in a terrific part of Wilwood, N.J. made it a lovely vacation. I would definitely stay there again.

Excellent Beach View!
From check-in to check-out, we were very pleased with our stay. Sometimes, the hotels at the beach can be sketchy, but Roman Holiday was very nice! Betty at the front desk is a real sweetie, the rooms are clean and well maintained, as are the pool and the property. I feel like we got our money's worth.

Great location close to everything
I spent 3 nights here with my boyfriend & 2 kids. The hotel was right on the beach & only 3 blocks from the boardwalk. The staff was very friendly & extremely helpful with suggestions of places to eat, see, do, etc. The pool is small, but the kids didn't mind. The room was very clean & stocked with dishes, I like to save as much as I can & we cooked our meals in the kitchen we had in the room. The grocery store was only a 5 min drive. Do not try to go in Russo's Market behind the hotel, they are extremely expensive & didn't have a very big selection of items. I will def be staying at this hotel again if we go to Wildwood next year!
