We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Star Inn. We usually stay at Congress Hall, while the rooms are bigger there, we loved our room, beautiful ocean view. Our AC wasn't working, and within minutes the maintenance team came and put in a window unit without blocking our Ocean View. Loved the coffee shop and front porch also. Very easy check-in and parking was great.

Positives: Front porch and coffee shop.

Negatives: Loved the shower, but very small bathroom.

Positives: The location to the beach.

Negatives: Didnt know where to sign in at first.

We were pleasantly surprised. It was immaculate. There were even glasses in lieu of usual plastic glasses hotels supply. Extremely comfortable. Very quaint. Only complaint was the 3 flights of very narrow stairs which made it difficult with a large suitcase. We would certainly stay there again.

Positives: It was squeaky clean and so quaint.

Negatives: 3 flights of very narrow stairs.

It was disgusting, and the front desk was incredibly unhelpful. Our heater wouldn't work so we called the front desk and he told us to "turn it on and let it run for an hour, it'll warm up." This was at 1 o'clock in the morning, we didn't have an hour to wait, and by 6 in the morning, our teeth were chattering we were so cold. When we tried to change rooms, he was very unhelpful and didn't want to let us change.

Positives: It was convenient for our trip, we only stayed there to sleep, really.

Negatives: Our room was disgustingly dirty, with an enormous water stain on the ceiling.

Very nice, cleaned comfortable highlighted the quaint laidback feeling of the local area!

Positives: Quaint, pleasant, well maintained, and comfortable.

Negatives: Restaurant food was not up to the quality of the rest of the facility.

The Star Inn motel suite met our needs. It had a great centralized location and was close to the ocean. In fact, looking out our front window, we could see the ocean between buildings. The room was clean and cheerfully decorated in a 70's sort of way. The staff was cheerful and accommodating. On the negative side, the chair in the bedroom and the sofa in the living room were broken and the water drained slowly in the shower. We have stayed at beach resort hotels in the past and have learned from experience that these places take a lot of abuse during the summers and so we never expect the highest quality in these hotels.

Positives: Great location. Nice suite layout.

Negatives: Broken chair and sofa. Water drained slowly in the shower. Parking was a little tight.

The star inn went above what we expected. Upon checking, we were upgraded to a suite. The room was great, 2 large rooms with a mini-kitchen. The room had both a front and back patio, with outdoor furniture. Staff was very helpful. Hotel was located in great section of cape may.

Positives: We were upgraded to a suite at the same low price.

Negatives: Ground floor suites open straight to parking lot.

The room was nice but smelled musty and even though the bed linen was very clean and attractive, it seemed to be damp each night.

Positives: Great location which was close to beach and shops.

Negatives: Room was musty smelling and bed linen seemed damp both nights.

I absolutely loved the room and decor of the Starr Inn, however we encountered a small ant problem, which was resolved quickly. They then moved us to the Congress Inn, which was wonderful, they upgraded us at no extra cost and gave us 2 rooms overlooking the ocean. So not a bad deal at all. Would stay again. Staff was extremely fast acting and very helpful, I give the staff and A+.

Positives: Very accommodating, staff friendly and quick to help out.

Negatives: We had a small ant problem at the Starr Inn.

The atmosphere was elegant, esp. in the main hotel across the street called Congreve Hall. My main complaint was once we checked out we had a billing issue, which the front desk could not explain. I felt that we were treated differently from other check out clients. I ended being charged another $10 or so for a mix up with taxes. I almost feel that after all that they should have waved the $10 was their mistake & it took several days to figure it out and then mailed me a letter with explanation that they were charging my credit card the additional fee.. I felt that I wasn't I priority and when I explained that we reserved room on line the wanted me then to produce my on line receipt. It changed my mood from being a relaxing getaway weekend to being hassled at check when they didn't even understand what was going on in their own computer system. I also over heard the front desk person tell a customer that he could rent a room for $100 which annoyed me esp. since I paid $170 for my room in the Inn.

Positives: The decor was beautiful & relaxing. The room size was small and for a tall person it would have been to uncomfortable. Luckily I am only 5"2.

Negatives: We had a mix up with the check out w front desk. They had a balance left on my account which they could not explain until they sent me a letter later

It was more like a bed and breakfast than a hotel. It was very cozy, but yet modern. Very high quality linens, towels and bed. I would love to have taking a significant other with to stay there. The only down side is I had to carry my luggage up 3 flights of stairs and the reception desk was across the street in another hotel.

Positives: The linens were extremely high quality, the bed was especially comfortable.

Negatives: It was difficult carrying all of my luggage up and down 3 flights of stairs.

The hotel staff were not helpful at all about the hotel room nor the town sites. The electricity was off one night and we had to wait about 30 minutes to get someone to help us get it fixed.

Positives: The bed.

Negatives: The size of the room and location.

Great location. The Star Inn appears to be a local establishment with three different types of accomodations. While we paid for a three star place we were given a room in a motel type accomodation versus the hotel or inn.

Positives: Location was outstanding.

Negatives: We were in a motel
