The Cape was perfect for our first visit to Cape May. Everything we wanted to see and do was within a 10-minute drive, depending on traffic. The room was clean and ready upon our arrival, parking was easy, and it had everything we needed for our little getaway. Thank you from R&C.

We only stayed one night. If we were staying longer, we probably would have chosen a place closer to Cape May beach. The only thing I noticed missing was cups for drinks (plastic or glass), which I usually see provided in most hotels I stay at.
