On a last minute "let's get away for a few days", Coachman's was the ONLY hotel with vaccancy, so we "booked it"....THEN I read the review's on this site and got REALLY scared....Yes it's true they are rebuilding starting this fall, but overall I would give it a 3 out of 5 starfish! The staff was VERY nice and helpful,... more

The exasperated lady ahead of us waiting at the front desk turned and mouthed the words to me: "LEAVE NOW!" She and her family had been asked to check out and check in again to a different room on 3 days of their stay. Another family (9 in all) were given a key to a suite of rooms but they... more

On account of my own procrastination, I was obliged to take a gamble on this place; it pretty much featured the only vacancy I could find in Cape May. I say "gamble" because, as you no doubt have concluded, the reviews for this place have been horrid. My finding: You wouldn't want to stay here if you were trying to... more

For many years, this was a family-run motor inn. We had stayed here several times and were very pleased. The location is great - across from the beach. Everything was maintained in top shape. This year, the tennis courts are defunct, the Rusty Nail Restaurant is closed, and the refrigerators in the efficiency units do not work, so rooms have... more

I have stayed here in the past, and although the motel was older, it was a pleasant stay. This year however was horrible. I'd read the reviews on here and thought, "how bad can it be?". When we arrived, my question was answered. We booked two rooms. Both were filthy. Garbage in the room was not removed, hair all over... more

Beds had not been changed awhen we checked in; staind on sheets and toothpaste and hair on pillow. Ants in dresser. Requested new room and second room was just as bad. Bed had not bseen changed since previous guest, table was filthy and so was bathroom, which had only one towel and one dirty washcloth. Night desk person said that... more

This hotel is under new ownership as of April or May 2006 after having been a family business. The rooms and property are tidy, if a bit worn. We were told that the new owners will begin refurbishing and renovations soon - as of this writing, the rooms are adequate, showers have plenty of hot water with good water pressure... more

I have spent summers in Cape May at a campground near the beach since I was very young and have always thought the Coachman looked like a nice place to stay. When my husband and I were dating, we decided to spend Memorial Day weekend in Cape May and made reservations at the Coachman. The location is perfect, being right... more
