Beach Block, 2BR, Free Parking in Seaside Heights

The place itself was nice and clean, and the stay went well once I was able to check in. The main issue was management and communication. After booking, I was told I had to sign a separate rental agreement with significant additional terms, even though neither the agreement nor the requirement to sign one was disclosed in the listing. When I declined, I was told I would not receive check-in information. Airbnb had to intervene, stated I was not required to sign the undisclosed agreement, and instructed the host to provide access, warning of cancellation consequences and listing/account restrictions. I was left uncertain until receiving the check-in information the morning of arrival. Communication was unreliable: twice I was told they would get back to me shortly about early check-in/late checkout, but never received an answer. Either answer would have been fine; being left waiting was the issue. Good property, but an unnecessarily uncertain and unprofessional management experience.

Great place.

Last minute stay for me and my family, Madeline was very responsive and helpful with any questions I had. Great area and boardwalk just 2 blocks away. Will return anytime I visit seaside heights!

Be aware this host “Madeline” isn’t a real person! It’s an AI bot. The guest hosts are supposed to be verified and real people so I am unsure why this scam was allowed. The whole time I thought I was communicating with a real person “Madeline” who grew up by the jersey shore, it was all a scam! When we arrived to the house after a day at the beach we tried to use the shower and the drain was completely clogged! that also means no one ever cleaned the shower because they would have realized this as soon as they turned it on. There was murky water coming up from the drain, how gross! None of us could shower so we called “Madeline” and an unknown man answered who told us they would call us back with a solution. Then we get an automated message saying no one will be able to fix the drains until the next morning AFTER WE CHECK OUT. what is the point of fixing it after we have left? And then never replied until the next morning of check out. We had to go to the store and buy a plunger !!
