It was not near any safe convenient store or deli for coffee, etc and there were some shady guests there off season and the price was much too high for no frills and it was on a very busy highway so no walking anywhere.

Our first stay here in a few years. Holly Hill has been significantly upgraded since our last stay. Fully renovated. The rooms are still on the small side, but they are now freshly painted, new soundproof windows, large flat screen TV, electronic locks on the door, the fridge/freezer, microwave, furniture, beds and bath have all been replaced and modernized.

My stay there was quite comfortable, room was clean very clean and I felt safe also want to thank the staff for going above and beyond by bringing packages to my room and genuine concern for my welfare! Thank you so much to all the staff!

You get what you pay for.
I will say, the rooms are updated and clean.
The outside of the rooms are very well lit.
There are definitely some questionable occupants with even more questionable vehicles making it feel rather unsafe to sleep and leave your car outside. We were legitimately concerned our car would be sitting on cinder blocks in the morning. Not to mention the noise from being on the highway.

Broken door jambs, very noisy, uncomfortable bed and pillows. Sub par for the price they charge

Could barely understand guy at check in, charged me extra $25 they don’t tell you about anywhere else as a “security deposit”. Room smelled, air conditioner was disruptive and sounded broken or on the verge of breaking, every single linen was stained (bedsheets, towels, everything), flies and gnats were abundant in the room. Overall, it’s a you know what hole. For the amount I paid and the fact that I only stayed 2 nights, I’m horrified. Overcharged and very very underimpressed. If you have nowhere better to stay, I’d still suggest sleeping in your car over this place. If you do stay here, never take off your shoes or you might contract something. I want a refund so bad.

Cons first- the staff member that checked me in and out, likely the owner who lived above the stairs was extremely unfriendlt and acted bothered by the fact that i needed to be checked in and out. VERY strange fella. No words like hello, thank you or goodbye were used. He looked at me with eother intimidation or fear and was extremely short with his responses and rude in tone. I literally had no damn requests. The entire place was in very bad shape from the outside, and it looked dangerous, dirty and decrepit. There were many signs arpund on what not to do, similar to what i imagine to be a halfway house. Lastly, the TV did not work, ans neither did the coffee machine. I wanted a coffe in the am and a movie in the evening- but that was not happening. There was shampoo, but no conditioner. Now to the good- the room itself was in fantastic condition, newly renovated, beautiful, confortable and with a great layout. It was clean as if the president could walk in. In fact, i was shocked and i wish to get my house in that order and look! It was 5 star worthy within the door- and with 0 bugs. It was stone tiles and not carpet! Modern and easy to clean. Spacious. However, the service was so atrocious, and with the nin-working appliances (plugged into outlets that worked), it takes away the human touch and bare necessities. I wish this room existed in each of my stays, but i dont wish the bad service upon my enemies.

They need places to put our suitcases, hangers
and a closet, phone, clock, enough towels, tissue and sizable bars of soaps.

Wow, I had such a pleasant and surprisingly good experience! The property has been renovated and, although it's not a 5 star resort (I mean, it's a Motel after all), the comfort and affordability are unmatched. It's become our little hideaway for me and my husband. Great little rendezvous. The front desk check-in was super friendly. Bring your own shampoo and toiletries. I also sprayed fragrance spray as I didn't realize I booked a smoking room (that was my mistake). Otherwise the room was clean. I would absolutely recommend it to others, but I also kind of want to keep it our little secret. 😉

Me and my sister stayed for 2 nights. Now this is my first time booking a hotel so I found this little spot for an affordable price. Now at first it looks like a nice little spot but the bedcovers had stains and cigarette burn holes, finger prints and hand prints on the walls. Found a condom box in the drawer with an opened condom wrapper in the box. And when my sisters car wouldn’t turn on, they told her to move it for cleaning but when she couldn’t turn it on they basically kept nagging her asking to move it even though she couldn’t. One man then came to her car and tried rolling her windows up since they blew dirt in and on top of her and her car. But the people that were there doing maintenance (3rd party company) offered to help her jump the car and even made sure she was gonna be okay after they left the premises. The one employee of the hotel that was rushing my sister even told her “you don’t have jumper cables?” And when she responded with “no, do you?” He said “I run a hotel not an auto shop”. I recommend that if you come here please please please request new CLEAN bedding and make sure that your bed doesn’t have any unwanted “fun” stains from previous tenants or just bring your own sheets.

You can definitely tell that they recently renovated the rooms. The roomis fairly modern looking despite it being an older motel.

We stayed at this property because it was close to a concert venue. The room was basic but very clean. For the price, it was well worth the value.

Drove past it twice because the sign wasn’t lit and it was dark. Check in person was very curt and did not speak English and got mad that I didn’t know what he was saying. Check out staff was very nice.

First at check in there is a $25 room cleaning deposit that they didn't tell you about. The room was fine. large, clean. Door did not fit frame properly and at night the light from outside shown right in. I booked a 2 night stay. Half a roll of toilet paper. 2 towels, 1 washcloth and 1 bath mat. Toiletries were smaller then small. 1 tiny bar of soap, 1 packet of body wash and 1 packet of hand lotion. again packets not mini bottles. Then at 2 am the fire alarm goes off. I don't think it was going off in every room as there were maybe 15 people outside. and they had a sign saying no vacancies. No management to tell us anything. I went in and rang their doorbell and told them .They never came out to talk to their guests. 20 MINUTES THE ALARM WAS GOING OFF AND THEY NEVER ONCE SAID ANYTHING TO US. They also never said anything the next AM at checkout. The guy in the next room said "ive been here about 2 months and this happens frequently but it usually only last a couple minutes"

The motel is being renovated and is an excellent value. Room is fairly small and there is a lack soap and shampoo in the room. The room could have been cleaned better but it was not terrible

Towels were dirty and we had to keep going back for toilet paper. Were given new towels and they were still filthy. The bed sheets also had dried blood on them.

New owners/management. They cleaned up really nicely. Rooms are clean, beds comfortable, and the location is very convenient for Sandy hook and other beaches in the area.

I usually stay at budget motels when I travel, so I don't have high expectations at all, but this was one of the worst motels I've stayed in. For $166, I expected more. The night before, I stayed at a $65 motel that was better than this one. The floor was filthy. I had to put a towel down to wipe my feet off before getting into bed. Maybe that's why the towels were stained because other guests have to do the same thing? You only get 3 towels, by the way, and the soap is about the size of a vanilla wafer, so bring your own. The wifi didn't work at all in my room #7. The TV didn't work either. So I had nothing to do. A few positives were the bed was OK, the water was warm, and the air conditioning worked. It was a bit odd that they called my house twice to ask if I was coming. I wasn't even that late to check-in. I arrived around 7pm. Communication with the front desk was difficult to say the least. Avoid this place, if possible.

there was what looked like pubic hair al over the bed and pillows. Everything was stained, including the mattress pad. The floor stained our feet with yellow dirt, they gave us half a roll of toilet paper for three days.

Place doesn’t look like much for 1st impression and older front desk gentleman is unfriendly (younger lady is very nice), but the room is all newly remodeled, painted and clean. It was a pleasant surprise that it was so nice. Comfortable bed, new bathroom with spacious vanity, large TV, inexpensive, and convenient 20 min drive to beaches. We liked it so much that we added a day to our stay. Suggestions to the motel: add luggage rack, add closet bar rack to wall for hanging clothes, add hooks on wall behind door for jackets, add a door seal as the gap let in noise, add a blow dryer and iron, add hand towels.

I usually enjoy my stay, however there is a new man working the front. He is extremely slow at processing everything and he’s not polite. The bedding and towels are thin, so I suggest bringing an extra pillow or blanket for more comfort. When I asked for an additional towel, since they only have two and a single wash cloth in the room, he refused unless I gave him the others, as though I wanted to steal his thread bare white towel which barely covers me (I’m 5’). There was white dust from construction in almost every corner, and behind furniture. My feet became dirty from one walk to the bathroom without my slides on, so bring house shoes too.
I was happy they had added a microwave to the room from my last trip. My prior visits were much better, there was a couple working the front last time I stayed. Much more pleasant experience.
Overall, this visit left me less than satisfied.

I stayed in room 3 and was quite satisfied. I felt VERY SAFE & SECURE. I would stay again without a second thought. Well worth it for the budget-minded. The modestly sized room and bathroom were clean. The A/C & Heater wall unit is huge… A/C can get crazy cold. Recent paint, flooring, fixtures, roll window shade, sink, and furniture appear new. WiFi was acceptable.
I much appreciated the compact fridge, microwave, and large TV. I was impressed with the two nightstands. Each had two electric outlets and two USBs– in addition to the multiple outlets around the room. There was a mini coffee maker, sturdy paper cups, creamer, sugar, and various kinds of coffee. Although economy quality, these were thoughtfully supplied: a packet of body cream, small bar of soap, and packet of shampoo. FYI, open the shampoo before you get your hands wet.
Sufficient towels, washcloths, and three pillows. Thin fabric bedding. The towels could use some bleach to brighten them, but they were clean. The bed was a bit firm for me, yet I slept well. I wish they provided a blanket, as I was a bit cold.
No clock, tissues, phone, or Gideon's Bible. If you are under 50, look that last one up! The motel is right near State Highway 36. I turned up the fan to keep out some noise. The other guests were decent and no problems. All seemed to have nicer vehicles than me, lol. PS: If guests smoking outside your room bother you, just respectfully ask them to go over to the grassy area.

They're very clean. Never have had a bad experience here. Quiet, low key, out of the chaos. Whenever you need something, they take care of it straight away.
