Run away from this place, it is Horrible ! You don't even get what you pay for. Stayed here this past weekend (9/13-15). It hasn't been updated probably since it opened. The furniture had to be original except for the mattresses and they were ok, the drapes had holes in them, the carpet had patches glued down, tiles missing on the bathroom floor, paint and spackle is peeling off the walls and ceilings, the AC did not work - told the compressor just broke and they are waiting for parts but see reviews for weeks back saying the same thing. Then they said the compressor they were waiting on was hijacked (?) so they went out and got some fans and put one in our room. No security bars or chains on the doors, just a little slide bolt that was so rusted that it fell off the door when we tried to use it. Had to find a piece of cardboard to keep the door from banging back and forth and the door frames are all rotted out at the bottoms. Coffee maker and 2 cups but no filters or coffee ? Million dollar view but we were afraid to use the balcony because the railing was rusty. the pool looked clean and the 5 seagulls occupying it seemed to enjoy it. I'm sure the penthouse rooms might be better, but do yourself a favor, go elsewhere.
This amazing hotel came to our rescue after we booked at another place and it was an absolute dump. The Acropolis is right on the ocean, with amazing views and a beautiful pool. The bar area is great and friendly and the staff are amazing and go above and beyond. The rooms are dated but clean. We were traveling with my teenage son and needed a separate area for him to sleep and this place was perfect.
Very old school vibes. Jennifer, the owner, is so friendly and accommodating.
Lets Start by saying I would have never stayed at this dump because I knew it was a DUMP!!!!! The Man on the phone told me the place was completely renovated.That was clearly a lie. I can't believe your responses to the bad reviews. Jennifer you are a horrible owner. Knowing the place is disgusting you have the nerve to get smart with people. Your place has been disgusting for years. Sad part your teaching you grandchildren to be horrible people like yourself. I sure your penthouse room is pristine. Your have no class or conscience just money hungry.
From start to finish, our experience at the Acropolis Oceanfront Resort in Wildwood, NJ was terrible. When first arriving to our room (509), we noticed immediately that the room was still dirty - hair in the sink & bathtub, bathroom covered in mold, carpets were filthy, mattress & box springs were stained, & the room smelled of mold. Not only was there mold in the bathroom, but there was also mold visibly in & around the room. When we informed the front desk & requested a refund as we wanted to book another hotel, we were told that no one on the premises could give us a refund, & we'd have to wait until the next morning. The next morning comes & the manager, I believe her name was Jennifer (real professional, just look at her review responses lol), offered to move us to another room but the AC was broken & was very clear that, “EVERY ROOM HAD MOLD,” she even snidely said "Welcome to the Jersey Shore, there is mold everywhere." The other alternative was that we could stay in our mold-infested room, they'd clean it with bleach, & they'd give us 30% off our next stay, which was a joke because we 1000% will never return to this POS establishment. We demanded they give us a phone number to put us in touch with someone who could refund our $. The phone number went to a man named Nick, who assured us we could get a refund. We moved forward with booking a new place to stay. Fast forward a month & we are still fighting with them to give us a refund. We have been in contact with Nick a few times since he originally stated we'd get a refund & his tune completely changed. It's always, that "I have to wait on the owners to approve & they're only here on Wednesdays", or "We had the room inspected by a mold expert & they didn't find any mold" even though both the housekeeper & manager assured us that there was mold in every room. They have stopped answering our calls entirely. Our stay was supposed to be from 7/20 to 7/23 but we checked out in the AM on 7/21 as we did not feel safe or comfortable staying there. They should do the right thing & pay us our $ back. I strongly suggest that anyone who is having this same issue, to contact the BBB along with the Chamber of Commerce & NJ Division of Consumer Affairs. This place should not be allowed to operate! Such a shame considering they’re in a prime location. Spare yourself the headache & go to Athens II - they were incredible!
Below average. Poor quality. Extremely dirty, black matresses, pillows and dirty pool. Horrible smelling rooms, air and disgusting rugs. Air conditioner not working enough. You can tell the owner is on his way to retirement or this place would have been better kept. The screen doors are not even in working condition. Can't sit outside with the neighbors smoking cigarettes. Gross. The rugs are so black with dirt. Not sure anyone came to Clean the pool. You can see floating seagull poop. can tell there are many issues with unhapoy guest, no working electrical outlets, toilets backing up, smells, very run down. Does the job if your desperate or in a pinch for a place to stay. Recommend not staying here, but if you for some reason after being warned do don't walk barefoot. They really let this place run down to the ground, never seen a power wash, upgrade, or fix of a broken thing. I'm sure the generation before put much more pride and care into this place at one point and now it's just seen it's days. Best to have kept busy outside of the room. Really disappointed and not worth what we paid. If I could be refunded that would be great. The smell alone is enough to run. But if you are stuck considering it ???? don't say I didn't warn you. Lol
Great location with full view of ocean from balcony. However, the room was below average. Air conditioning didn't work well. Paint was flaking from the doors and rug was laid down roughly not cut to the wall. Walls showed where paint roller was used. No toaster in the kitchen. And no cutting board. Young children's size toilet. Women cleaning the room were rude. Very disappointed for the price.
Our family had a great stay! We will come back for sure. You cant beat the location, nice large pool for adults and baby pool for the littles, and very attentive and friendly staff. The ocean is steps away and walking distance to the boardwalk. We even had a bonus dj spinning fun music on Saturday by the pool!
This place is disgusting!! Stay very very very far away!! The workers are the nastiest people you will ever meet, especially the manager. she is extremely ignorant and this place should be shut down. Our entire stay we had 0 air conditioning during a heat wave and our room was pushing 90 degrees in the middle of the night!! the only thing they said they can do was give us a voucher to come back and they they ran out of fans since the entire place had 0 air. NEVER WILL I GO BACK!! There was hair in our bed and dead bugs on the floor and in the drawers the first day we got there right after they “cleaned the rooms”. Other things had happened during our trip that we could’ve SUED this place for, but overall this was the nastiest place i have ever stayed and this place should be demolished!!
