    Bathroom with no sink in it

    The on site manager is a miserable person who should put more effort into caring for the dilapidated property than she does getting involved in guests comings and goings. I Checked in to my room with my son (18) and two Nephews (17 & 18) and was threatened my kids would be thrown in the "seaside slammer" if I left them alone at the property. She then ordered me to check in at the front desk every morning by 9am or she would call the cops, which I agreed to because after making a 3 hour ride what are you going to do let's get comfortable and enjoy our vacation time right? wrong. We then took our scolded behinds up to our Deluxe poolside room with balcony that only cost $237 a night (right around the cost of a two bedroom air b&b by the way). This dump of a room (now my jail cell) was disgusting it smells like a wet basement, the floor is some how sticky and slippery at the same time, the walls have peeling paint, holes and scratches. The furniture is old, scratched and moisture damaged. The balcony has a water puddle from the ac dripping on it, peeling and chipped paint on the railing, and cheap lawn furniture that could barely support a full grown teenager. The bathroom some how was damper than the rest of the room even with the exhaust fan on that sounds like a diesel truck running. Again this section of the room features peeling paint, even on the bathtub?! to go along with the holes in the walls, and did I mention the sink is in not in the bathroom but in the foyer talk about deluxe accommodations!!!! Between the disrepair of the property and lack of customer service from the Crypt keeper at the front desk I had to immediately check out before my luggage picked up mold spores from the moist air in the room or my kids got lead poisoning from peeling paint Hotel highlight: Rooms Dumpy and rundown tropical humidity levels Safety: Staff will call the cops if you leave 18 year olds alone at the property and you will get a free tour of the seaside slammer Courtesy of the Aztec Noteworthy details: Property managers Attitude matches the property. Worn out with an earthy aroma

    Really?! With what you pay?

    Save your money!! After looking forward to a weekend away... you'd rather stay in your car! Came for a quick weekend getaway. We are older gals visiting. Not college teens goofing off. Upon arrival we had to park a block & half away & take a cart to bring up our stuff. Had a heck of a time bringing stuff in the elevator; too narrow. The front desk staff were not personable; appeared to be just working for a paycheck. We get in & it appears we got the "last resort room" right by the front desk, 118. The walls have stains & chipped paint. The furniture old & ratty. The corner chair stained from god knows what. The bottom sheets on the box spring, black. When we asked if there were any other rooms available, they said no, after the money we spent. No phones in the room if you needed one. Drawers on furniture don't open or are lopsided & move. The only decent thing is the air conditioner that works. Awful accommodations. The owners should be ashamed of themselves with what they charge!! SHAME ON YOU!!

    Bottom sheet.  Possibly purchased from a farm?

    This place was horrifying. We reserved three rooms. All has gritty floors. One had a broken lock. Our room next door had to be wiggled to close it. Another had no hot water. NONE had WIFI but we were told if we log on near the office and just stay on it might keep working by the time we get to the room. Yeah nope. There were holes in the wall, a broken headboard, possibly blood on one wall, something white and dried up on one of the bead spreads, some sort of bodily fluids on the walls, and a dirty bottom sheet. Had to go down to get shampoo and stuff that's normally in the room...I don't even remember it all.

    Exposed screws on the door

    This place was a complete dumpster fire. I booked it through booking.com and my stay was non-refundable. Well needless to say I will never book through them again. The hotel was DISGUSTING. Dirty rooms - the door handle was ripped off exposing screws and the pool was beyond gross with back mold, cigarette butts and refuse scattered about. Look at the photos. Ugh. We left after and hour and called our money a loss and paid $200 to stay an hour away but it was worth not staying at this horrible place.

    Toe biter, antique AC, drapes.

    Aztec Hotel I waited until after my stay to start my review hoping for a redeeming quality.* I will split this list by Pros and Cons. Pros will be first as there are not a lot. Pro's- A nice three way shower. Con's- Way too expensive for an out of date, unkempt and dirty, hotel room, with two full-sized beds. I was sure I had reserved a king-sized, ocean-view room asking for a handicapped parking spot. There isn't any longer any true ocean-views from any room. If you look past the newest part of the boardwalk, past the extremely tall lighted Ferris Wheel, you can see the water on the horizon, on a nice sunny day. The front door was dirty, (pic to follow), looked like chocolate or stool. No hairdryer in a beachside hotel. Sink was outside of the bathroom. Walking from the front door to the first bed made the feet black with dirt. No spare blankets. Rusty rails on the deck. The pool-side was a mess (pic to follow) and did not look like any of the web-site photos, as well as it was not cleaned, with the same items on the ground day-to-day. Dirt behind the beds and junk under the tables. (Foil tabs, etc.) The microwave smelled like toxic plastic when used and was dirty and/or stained. We had one pack of coffee (Never enough!) with two sad packets with the stirrers, etc., and no cups. The lamps were from your great-grannies house and only one worked. The TV had two remotes and the sound did not work on either, and it I wasn't until the end of our stay that we found a note on an envelope by the TV shelf that told us to turn the tv off at the box. I am not getting out of bed to do this, I am on vacation! The TV was on when we got to the room and stayed on all night. Be careful by the never ending-always running antique motel AC unit as there is a box sticking out on the floor that catches your toes. The AC was set at 61 degrees on entry, and we never touched it-sometimes warm sometimes ok...but we were afraid to touch it and maybe it would stop working. Since this AC unit was vented outside, one was unable to sit on that side of the deck in the cheap plastic chairs which maybe considered as dangerously hot while in the sun. The large room darkening "drapes" did their job but make you feel like you were at a funeral. They were shabby, dirty and (gross). They were also draped over the antique motel AC unit. The hotel did not provide handicapped parking. (Seaside Heights allows handicappers free parking with a placard.) Oh, maybe my favorite item, the dingy plastic ice-container (pics to follow) which said "Holiday Inn." The hallways need paint and repair desperately. The stairwells were also with rusty rails. The check-in area was chaos. Not enough parking spots, period. The corner of the parking area was disgusting. The kicker? When we checked out we were not asked how our stay was.* I see some pictures on the site here and I don't know what rooms those were because we were in the piss poor room. I'm so disappointed I feel like it ruined my three day vacation, Especially at nearly $200 a night. FYI Of all the places, I forgot to check in here. Our room was NOT like ANY pictured below!!!

    This is a rough stay but the people were really nice when I went there in the offseason. It's right on the boardwalk which is great and probably is great for partying in the summer. Had to run the hot water for 15 minutes to get it hot. The price is very season dependent. I paid $66 in October, but it's probably over $200 in the summer.

    Needs blackout curtains!

    I'm convinced that people who leave poor reviews for motels don't realize what they're getting…read morethemselves into. Seaside isn't Martha's Vineyard or the Hamptons. You're not staying at the Ritz Carlton. Yes, the Sunburst Motel probably needs renovating since it was last decorated decades ago. Yes, there were cigarette burns in the bedding. However, it's clean for the most part, which can't be said about all of the motels in Seaside Heights. The bathroom was very nice. No, there isn't shampoo, body wash, or conditioner. Unfortunately, you'll have to stop by the local CVS and pick up a couple travel sized bottles. You'll survive. Some pros about our stay at Sunburst: There was a functional triple lock on the door. Definitely helps to know that we're safe. The beds were incredibly comfortable and warm despite the cigarette burn holes. That didn't really bother us too much. The bedding was clean. No bed bugs. We had a nice room with two beds, a kitchenette, TV, and refrigerator. The man who runs the front desk was very nice and helpful. I forgot to get his name but he was very friendly. It's very close to the middle of the boardwalk and beach. There was only one con about staying here. It's very loud and the walls are thin. We had noisy neighbors. Not really a fault of the motel but Seaside typically attracts the louder and younger crowd. Not a huge issue. There's also no daily maid service which doesn't bother us but I know that's a deal breaker for some. Overall, this is a comfortable, fairly clean, and safe place to stay in Seaside Heights. Again, don't come here if you're looking for a ritzy hotel. You'll definitely be disappointed. In fact, don't come to the Jersey Shore at all if you want to go somewhere classy. This isn't it. If you just want a comfortable and pleasant stay, this is a good option. Believe me, there are a lot of motels in the area that are in horrible condition and I would not feel safe staying at. Sunburst isn't one of them. It deserves the four stars. The Charlroy Motel is also another family friendly option in the area. More expensive and on the quieter side of town but worth the money. They were booked for the summer so Sunburst was our next option and they didn't disappoint!

    Went to Seaside Heights on a spontaneous overnight trip…read more Found a convenient parking lot next to beach. I asked parking attendant for motel recommendations. He gave Sunburst a thumbs up. Nice simple room, refrigerator, working AC. Clean room and bathroom! The pool is heated and great for evening use! Tyler, was very accommodating and gave us great restaurant recommendations! Gotta check out Sunset seafood! Good thing Tyler mentioned it was BYOB! Would definitely stay there again and recommend! Thanks Tyler!
