Mostly good

We had a two night stay to attend a wedding. The air conditioner was very noisy plus there was a fly and a few ants in the room. Also, the bed was too soft. Other than that the stay was ok.

If you are visiting LBI, you cannot go wrong with the “Surf City Hotel”. I want to address something that was mentioned regarding the rooms situated above the restaurant. Other reviewers have mentioned that when the restaurant is crowded or they have a musical guest that the sound penetrates into the room. While this is true it doesn’t detract from the enjoyment or privacy of the room. My room was right above the restaurant and while I could hear spillage from the restaurant, it can best be described as distant sounds. The hotel spells this all out when you reserve a room above the restaurant as well. Hope to see the folks at SCH again next month.

Good value hotel

Clean and quiet in mid-April off-season. Centrally located, 15 mins from Barnegat Lighthouse. Wally's next door restaurant very good food. I would have liked an in-room coffee machine, the one at front desk had no water.

Made the best of it! Chowderfest was great!

Room was two large flights up, window AC’s, step up to bathroom, no grab bars by toilet or in shower, bathroom sink leaked the third night we were there and the bathroom sink was very loose and almost falling off the wall.
