They came and tidied up our room each day with fresh towels. Truly enjoyed staying here and would come back. Highly recommend!

I called the following morning because my dog is very sick. I was able to cancel other reservations with no problem and other people I talked to showed concern and were willing to make an exception. The staff at the red roof in was it very friendly not helpful. They were very cold and unaccommodating. I was expecting to pay a cancellation fee or something but was told that I would be charged the full amount. I will be going to Wildwood when my dog is feeling better. I will be staying somewhere else and you should too.

I would give this place a ZERO star but there isn't an option for that…read more We arrived to the hotel around 10PM to check in and left shortly after. The room was dirty. I requested for a Non-Smoking room but was given a room 119 that smelled like a smoking room. It smelled so bad it was nauseating.Floor was sticky next to the bed what looked like dry wine or soda. There was used dove soap bar and dirty diaper by the bed. They do not sweep/mop the rooms. The spring box had water marks and looked like it was left out in the rain. I complained to the manager Rahul who showed me a different room which did not smell as bad but the floor was dirty and the beds were dirty. We decided to not stay and drove home after. Our vacation was cut short which is unfortunate. After speaking with the manager, he mentioned that I speak with the owner named Tim who was first ok with me leaving and I said I will not be paying for the stay since I am Checking out, that changed quickly after I called and ask for a refund since the transaction was already posted. His had a nasty attitude and said "I am sleeping I will go to the hotel tomorrow and get reports and decide" 2 days later, I still have not been refunded and charged for 2 nights. I will be reaching out to corporate/franchise/regulatory department/BBB to report on this. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE UNLESS YOU WANT TO BRING HOME BED BUGS WITH YOU!

We booked a room at Icona Diamond Beach at literally the 11th hour (3:00 PM on a Friday for that…read moreevening). We decided on a whim to spend the night in Cape May (we were already in Atlantic City), and we managed to score a discounted room through Hotelstonight.com. Our room was bright and seemingly recently renovated. I love the suite effect (bedroom and bathroom away from the sitting area). They have a nice outdoor bar on the beach, but due to the insane wind, it was closed. Tropical Storm Debby was working her whorish way up the coast of New Jersey that weekend. We left the property for dinner, but we regretted it upon our return. The hotel restaurant (Coastal Blue) is beautiful! We enjoyed a night cap at the restaurant bar while we learned a bit about the history of the hotel from the bartenders. Check-out is at 10:00 AM. And they MEAN 10:00 AM. We were getting ourselves ready to go and at 10:00 AM on the dot, housekeeping walked in. We heard them before we saw them, and we said, "We need a minute". It was a little off-putting. We even had the "do not disturb" sign on the door. We did not hear a knock. At any rate, don't expect to linger for even a minute. We were worried they would charge us for the extra 10 minutes (they didn't). I can't help but wonder if it would have been a different scenario if we booked our stay through Icona directly. Hmmm... At any rate, clean hotel with good amenities and shuttle service for local jaunts.

2024. Week of 9/16-9/20 Fall Escape. This was not my best experience and I have been a repeat…read morecustomer for several years. I'm teetering on a 2-3 star review. The staff is excellent and the management seemed to take my complaints seriously and offered to rectify my complaints which I do appreciate. Most businesses don't really care today. The rooms are well maintained for the most part but this visit was poor compared to other years. My screen had holes in it. Not the end of the world and I didn't even mention it until the end of my stay. Add that to a faulty fire alarm waking us all up Monday morning at 4:30 AM and according to the cop on the scene this has been an ongoing issue. Mgmt did explain to me they changed alarm companies- yet all the guests paid the price. Even more disturbing to me is that only about 10 people evacuated the premises. (Not the hotel's fault) I'm just sadly surprised that very few take their own personal safety seriously. In the on-site cafe there are residential portable air conditioning units being used because the cafe central air conditioning system is dysfunctional- plus I noticed burned out lights in the cafe. Another guest was complaining about the ice machine that was broken for several days. The cafe is run by a different group but the Reges has their name on it. They need to be more careful leasing that space. The quality of food in the cafe is slipping exponentially. My husband ordered a broccoli cheese omelette and was unable to detect either ingredient. The potatoes he got daily were cold. He requested onions and was told they don't have onions for potatoes. My first day I ordered eggs over easy and they were very mucous-like and raw- I couldn't eat them-I wasn't hungry any way. We tend to be forgiving about these things bcs it's an included perk. Ever hear that expression? "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth". Service at the cafe is severely declining. The server who took care of us for a few meals was a younger girl with dark hair and was absolutely miserable working there. She clearly hated her job. Our final day we endured an older overly tanned tall skinny blond "ish" server who has absolutely no business being in the service industry. She was extremely rude, impatient, seemed very annoyed we were there and kept ignoring my mom trying to order to go food- literally running away from our table- "I'm very busy". So you have ONE table at 7:30 AM and you are too busy to help a customer?! That's your ONLY JOB! She brought our juice to the table and we said "Thank You", she took our order to which we said "thank you"- -NO RESPONSE- no "you're welcome"- nothing but nasty attitude! I don't need this crap on my vacation. If you read my reviews you know I've been a server for decades-so I am more understanding than anyone- I put up with a lot more crap than I should- but I simply will not tolerate rudeness. This was the second time in my life I did not tip a waitress due to rudeness and I'm 56!! That's saying something. Additionally the beach was laden with trash. That is not the hotels fault- in good conscience I can no longer recommend my friends visiting here. The hotel called public works to rectify this. That's all well and good but too little too late for me with everything else. In the past, I had brought in a considerable amount of business to The Reges. My mom's friends, her sisters and their significant others, my good friend and her family visited numerous times, I had also brought my daughter and grand daughter last year. The Reges management offered to do something for me and they genuinely wanted me to give them a second try. I'm not looking for a free trip- I just wanted to be heard. Management heard me and responded to my message quickly and that's the only reason I am going with the 3rd star in my review. The Reges honored my wish to cxl my 2025 reservations and refund my entire deposit, (without a penalty of 25%) as that was my request. At this time I have no plans to return to The Reges. I have only a finite number of vacation days and the trip for me is nearly 3 1/2 hours to get to The Reges. I just can't chance another bad experience. Maybe someday I will feel differently.

Restaurant has very good food if you avoid the pastas. Beach and Boardwalk access on point, free parking spot with room a must. Lacking for price: no fitness center, sauna, hot tub, room service. Free coffee and cookies - but stops at 7:30am. Should at least go until 10 for a traditional Italian brekfast sans cigarette. Understand no bar- not legal there. Pool hours way too limited- closes at 8pm, should be 2am; at least up it until 12 on weekends. I suspect other hotels not so different. Glad we saw it, but point forward sticking to OC, Maryland, or Gulf Coast Florida . Much more bang for the buck.

My two boys, hubby and the 4 (Yes I am crazy ) dogs... 3 pitbuls and one 16 yr old chihuahua.... Packed up and moved into the sandbox motel for a week and I truly cannot wait to go back Rooms are clean, cool, spacious and comfortable with everything you could possibly need, all at your disposal!! We stayed in the apartment room on the first floor. It boats two generous bedrooms, large, * beds, a jacuzzi tub (that doesn't take away from the bathroom size btw) ... beautifully tiled and fully functional kitchen with all the amenities of home... coffee maker, plates, all cutlery! Cozy dinning area, closets to live in and a fabulous gas grill right outside our door! It was just perfect! Oh and don't forget? Acme, Walgreens, cvs and bars/restaurants within seconds walking from the hotel! Everyone here is just so nice and welcoming, it has a real family friendly feel Oh and the pool?! Fogettabout it hot tub? They got that too bb! I had a hard time leaving and we actually extended our trip 2 extra nights All seriousness? It's been a few since we have been down the shore, and our first time bringing all the dogs... but it was a trip well worth it and long over due and honestly? If it had been at any other hotel, I do not believe things would have been so amazing! I hope you guys enjoyed having us, bc you know we will be back Call now, it's not too late to book a weekend before the weather changes...

The older woman in the front desk area told me that I could Stay until after 11am as I told her we had been traveling a while. I said that my check out in New York was noon. She said ok. They kept knocking on my door stating check out was 10am. I replied, " you said that I could stay later." I guess in front of the owner she told a different story. They both started yelling at me and my daughter and told me to leave their motel. Never ever been treated like this ever in any establishment. I also checked out the room first as I read a lot of the other reviews. Should have listened and stayed elsewhere. The room smelled fine when I checked out the room. When we got back from Wildwood, it smelled like some one had been in our room as it wreaked of cigarette smoke. I also found a cigarette burn hole on our blanket. My daughter found a spider. They lie and say it's a non-smoking room when it's clearly both. They just tell you it's non-smoking so you will book it. I will send them a bill from my pulmonary specialist. Do NOT stay here!! Just told what happened to someone and they said this motel takes vouchers for welfare recipients. So people live here. They don't tell you that when you book.
