I feel like we really lucked out with this stay. Planned only 2 weeks prior, we booked accommodations last minute and took a chance on Avondale. It was perfect! Right on Beach Ave. in Cape May, we had view of the ocean from our balcony area. Upon booking, I received a call within 30 minutes from Avondale to confirm our stay and to ask us if we were OK with with walking up the stairs to 2nd or 3rd floor as there is no elevator. Not a problem for us and the 2nd floor facing the beach was perfect....

A lovely, quiet tucked away motel in a beautiful town. The room is comfortable and clean, there are only 8 rooms which is nice. Perfect for couples or families. We had a wonderful time at the very clean beach and enjoyed a stroll in the center of town on 96th Street. I was able to rent a beach chair provided by the hotel and a parking spot for each room is provided. So peaceful at night and really felt relaxed after the trip. Definitely will go back. Affordable and minutes away from Cape May,...

Great hotel. Parking was a little tight, worried about door dings. Rooms were booked via third party, so first floor handicapped accomodations was not available as requested. We endured & survived. We were offered upgrades on both rooms at no additional cost, which I declined, and my daughter accepted. With the fireman's convention in town, I expected more commotion, but things were pretty quiet. Great site, close to several eateries, stores & main routing, making our trips to & from Cape May...

This hotel was the perfect place to stay for a quick trip to the beach. Rooms were exactly what they should be- clean, fresh, simple, and close to the beach! Management was super nice and actually let us get our parking tags early in the morning so we could head to the beach before check in and not have to pay to park elsewhere. We also ended up being able to check in really early which was extremely nice! They do not have a pool on site, but guests can use the one right next door and it is a...
