This place is my place to go for a mini vacation with my husband just to get away from everything and enjoy the beach

The studio suites are big, with a separate bedroom, and an open area with a couch, TV and kitchenette with oven and microwave, as well as a bathroom with tub. The rooms are quite clean and staff responds quickly to concerns.

Very happy with this motel and location. It’s a motel! Don’t expect 5star but as far as everything we needed it was great. Friendly staff, parking on premise, rooms perfectly sized for our family. I’ll definitely consider this place first next time we visit Seaside Heights.

Thunderbird Motel was a good place to stay for a quick stop in Seaside Heights, NJ. Our room was clean, looked like new carpeting too. A couple of things to point out for our room (#10), it could use a floor length mirror by the closet and the door was a little hard to open and close, but otherwise everything was great.

Great place to stay, close to beach and boardwalk. Room had two dearooms and living room with tv. Fridge etc. All clean and loads of towels which was really nice with family. Lots of places to eat nearby. Parking was good . Basic but everything needed for a really great stay.

The towel rod was missing from my bathroom. The queen bedroom door was difficult to completely close as it would get stuck. But there were no bed bugs and it was a short walk to the boardwalk.

The first thing my lady said when she came to the room was “cute!”. It’s hard to find something to complain about really. They had the essentials (tv, microwave, mini fridge). I forgot to take pictures but there was no weirdness, no bugs or animals, everything was clean and the AC worked when I was there. If anything they did not provide toilet paper, eating utensils, or plates; that being said who cares! The boardwalk is few blocks away with good food everywhere and a 7-11 around the corner has all that stuff anyways. Also I will note from the room I was in, I was not able to connect to the WiFi at all with my iPhone, it seems like it was far away. Slightly disappointed because I wanted to stream hbomax/disney/etc. Whoever checked me in was very nice and accommodating and others were helpful as well. I had at such a good time at seaside I won’t forget it and the thunderbird was part of that. It’s a great feeling to come back from a fun time and rest with my girl in a cozy room.

This is a very old motel. The property is a little run down. Wasn't sure what to expect. We were pleasantly surprised! We had a queen suite studio room. It was all newly updated with a sitting area, kitchen, bathroom and separate bedroom. Immaculately clean! We were on the ground floor and were able to park right outside our door. The kitchen does not have anything in it. If you're planning on making some meals, bring your own pots and pans and anything else you would need. We saved a ton of money being able to cook our breakfast every day. It was relatively quiet, and within walking distance to the beach, boardwalk and many restaurants. Price was very reasonable for a shore room. It was perfect for my husband and me. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it for a lower budget vacation.

I don’t understand all the bad reviews, so I bumped them up from a 4 to a 5, to hopeful help that. I don’t know what people are expecting. This is the Jersey Shore and this is a typical Jersey shore motel. It might lack the amenities of other motels in the area, but it has ample parking and is clean. Which in my experience can be tough to find down there. Also the staff was very friendly and even helped me book another night over the phone on a Sunday night during 4th of July weekend. Keep on keepin on thunderbird !!!

It was 2 blocks from the beach/Pier. We love it. It's an old hotel not perfect. The only complaint we had was the bed was very hard...

A block from the beach, quiet and the owners are WONDERFUL!!! They are so accommodating and nice it’s unbelievable. I would definitely stay here again. The one down side is the bed isn’t the coziest but totally worth it.

Amazing stay! Staff super friendly, very close to boardwalk, clean and spacious room, felt very safe, bed bug covers, microwave, fridge, etc. Owner let us park there when we got there at 10am even though we couldn’t check in until 3pm. Our one night here was great and we will definitely be back!
