Had a great time. Can't wait to go back if there was only one thing that I could change about this place. It would be for the parking spots to be a little bit bigger. That's about it otherwise a great place to take your family.

Anthony

Was smaller than expected (my fault). My wife has some physical challenges that made Mobil difficult. They have a very old and a bit dilapidated dresser in room that smelled musty and made our clothes smell bad. Overall, clean except floors needed cleaning and very dated. Don’t know that I’d stay there again as there are many other choices in Wildwood

My stay at the crusader was just perfect. The staff were amazing, front desk staff were so nice and helpful with anything we asked. Room was spotless, plenty of towels AHEAD of time! Rooms cleaned as soon as we left and no waiting. Pool was clean and area always spotless. Will be returning next year for sure.

Delou

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Don't be fooled by pictures and good rating like I was. I was there from 5/24/24- 5/26/24. Place is very old, dirty, the toilet was filthy, the sheets were dirty, the bathroom is tiny, the TV sucked, no iron but rooms do have a fridge, laundry on site and staff was friendly. I'll give this hotel a 3/10. Do not waste your money here like we just did!!
