AI-generated summary based on recent guest reviews

Wild Dunes Inn consistently earns praise for its unbeatable location steps from the boardwalk and beach, though its position beside the amusement park means noticeable roller coaster noise in the evenings until closing, which some guests accept and others find disruptive.

Staff was very friendly. We have been coming to Wild Dunes the last 7 year's for long weekends. It was supposedly upgraded and here is what we found. They removed the carpeting in the suites and replaced with cheap imitation hardwood flooring. Turned the shower on and turned faucet to hot and got cold water, turned faucet to cold and got hot water. Only new noticeable upgrade was they now have a digital keypad to enter the rooms, BUT the keypads are not backlit so you cannot see tge numbers at night to enter the code. The main automatic entry sliding door sounds like it wants to fall of the tracking as it jerks open. The worst part was we were sitting watching TV and a mouse came out from under the dishwasher saw us and went back uner the dishwasher. Overall it is not updated. Same appliances, TVs, DVD Player, 2 burner stove, bathroom is very dated with the toilet seat literally about 14" off the floor. Not impressed at all and am definitely considering finding a new regular place to stay for our long weekends. Wild Dunes was better before it was so called upgraded........

Good location near the boardwalk. Clean. They have a unique door lock system that doesn't have a physical key. It uses a unique pin code but it doesn't automatically lock when you leave the room. You have to press the door lock icon before leaving the room. Very good overall.

For being off season, the room was well prepared and check-in was easily handled contactless. Location is great being 1/2 block off boardwalk. King bed was comfortable. Bathroom was clean but outdated with a strangely low toilet. Would recommend and stay there again.
