  : The location was perfect. Same block as boardwalk/Beach access. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Pool was nice - not too cold! The room was a pretty decent size and plenty for what we needed. Comfy beds. Some plates, utensils, etc included in the kitchenette.
  : No wifi and extremely limited tv channels. Half the lights and outlets didn't work, and there was only 1 out of the 3 blubs above the sink in the bathroom. There were broken floor tiles in the living room. The fridge was filthy on the outside. Mold around the shower faucet caulking and the bathroom sink dripped constantly. We did bring some food to cook on the stove for the kids, but we ended up not using it as you need a match to light the stove. The AC in the living room was also plugged into two, thin extension cords which is a huge fire hazard. ACs shouldn't be plugged into anything other than the outlet, and only a heavy duty (yellow, orange, black) extension cord for short term use. From what I can tell from previous reviews on the old motel, they've been updating A LOT, and the staff was ready to assist with anything. If they keep updating, slowly but steady, I'm sure the Tram Car will become a good stop!

  : I like how close we were to the beach and boardwalk.
  : They need to upgrade the beds. Also, it would be nice to be able to get ice.

Disappointing

  : 1 block from the boards and beach. We stayed during the week so it was peaceful and quiet. Air-conditioning worked great. TVs worked. Pool was nice. Everything is old but clean. No bugs. I have know idea what these other people were talking about. Staff was nice. No issues with parking.
  : There are no extra plugs. It's an old building so I guess thats why. We made it work tho. Beds aren't super comfortable. Tiles in living room were cracked. (Didn't bother us but figured I'd give y'all a heads up if that's a thing for you). The free wifi didn't work in our room on the 3rd floor so that kinda sucked.
