Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We have stayed at the American Inn for over 10 years and always on the 3rd floor. For many years the person taking care of our room was great, however for the last 2 years we were a little disappointed in the service we got. This year we had the pleasure of meeting Julee, the person who would be taking care of our room. The moment we entered our room we knew things were going to be different this year and in a positive way. All week long attention to detail and room cleanliness were impressive. Great job Julee. Hope to see you in Sept.

Great location right on the free beach close to the Wildwoods Boardwalk where you can rent bikes, grab a cup of coffee, eat, play and ride the amusements. American Inn had the best pool - very clean. Accommodations are clean, including the smell of bleach, which consumed me the entire time. One down thing was the plastic mattress protectors on the bed. Too hot for plastic. Overall, a fabulous stay.

This was our first stay at The American. When our usual hotel closed because of the virus, a friend recommended The American. The location is perfect, just steps from the beach and boardwalk in a quiet area. Gorgeous ocean view from rooms on the 2nd and 3rd floors. Maid service was terrific. The elevator and dolly made moving luggage a breeze. I believe we have found a new regular hotel for future years to come.

Been staying here every year for a long time with friends and family with a cost of $300.00 a night. It’s never been a 5 star hotel by any means, but this year the room was disgusting. The floor was filled hair and sand when we arrived, had an awful odor the entire stay and the toilet, bathtub and floor were BEYOND filthy. The toilet paper and towels were not replenished daily unless requested. And the lounge chairs on the patio looked 100 years old and we’re all sunken in.
And the woman at the front desk was rude to top it off. This place has extremely declined and I would
Be embarrassed to recommend it to anyone

Went on a family vacation spent $900.00 for 3 nights. The room was completely filthy. The floor was filled hair, dirt, and sand. The toilet was so gross the room was barely cleaned it cleaned at all. House keeping handed over towels and two trash bags. House keeping did not enter my room all weekend It was so bad I had to take out my own trash. Upon checking out the older gentleman at the desk asked me how my stay was and I told him what happened he was extremely defensive and rude telling me how I should have handled the situation instead of just apologizing. I will never stay in this dirt infested place that is poorly managed!!! Save your hard earned money and stay at another hotel that is clean and Known how treat their Guests with respect!

We are sorry that you had a bad experience but upon talking to your holusekeeper it was revealed that a gentleman in the room said all was good and you did not need anything. I am the older gentleman that asked how your stay was and all I said to you was i wish you had of told me or another employee about your room and it would have been corrected immediatel if it was not up to our standards.

My parents have gone to this hotel a few times and really enjoyed it, so I took my 12yo daughter here for a mother/daughter weekend last Labor day (kept forgetting to write a review). We booked at the last minute, so got a room on the lower level just behind the lobby area. The room could use some updating and it wasn't particularly clean (I will admit I am very OCD), but it was ok. There was a bad smell coming from the bathroom that was on and off the entire time we stayed there. I let housekeeping know, but they weren't able to figure out what the issue was (housekeeping staff was very friendly), so we just had to deal with it. My biggest issue was the people at the front desk were so rude to me, for virtually no reason. It seemed I was bothering them any time I went to ask a question, and although we were supposed to be able to check in at 4pm, we didn't get a call that our room was ready until 7pm, which was really not okay. I hate giving bad reviews, but as a single Mom this was a lot of $ for me to spend, and the fact that I came away disappointed was a shame. The location to the boardwalk and beach is great, but I wouldn't stay here again, nor would I recommend it - mostly due to the rude treatment from the front desk.

To start, you can’t beat the location and the views. The staff is extremely courteous and personable. Great family environment and most importantly, very clean. You can walk across the street to the boardwalk, beach, or hang by the pool for the day.

Have come here for my family vacation for years and always thought of this place as our home away from home. They got new owners and they did not take our reservation for 2023 like they would always do and then we were told they gave our rooms away and they now do not have anything for us. They do no care about respectful and loyal customers. Such a shame and really disappointed with new owners and how they are running it.
