Room was very clean, staff was great, beach is right there, parking was tight but very well coordinated. We had a bad storm the one night and lost power but within 10 mins they had power back up and running. Only downfall was the squeaky floor from the room above us. Otherwise great place!!!

We had an amazing time! Check in was super easy and a bonus was that parking was included. Staff was so welcoming. The room was clean, quiet and safe area. Location was amazing. Right across the street from the water park, amusement park and beach/boardwalk! Right next door they own a small restaurant with great food, we had breakfast, lunch and dinner there. We will definitely return! Thank you for the hospitality ❤️🤩

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Buoy16 Motel, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment I arrived, the warm and welcoming hospitality of the owners, Yasser and Mostafa, made my stay exceptional. They go above and beyond to ensure that every guest feels at home, creating a comfortable and friendly atmosphere that is truly special. The motel itself is clean, well-maintained, and ideally located, offering beautiful views and easy access to local attractions. The rooms are cozy and equipped with all the amenities one could need for a relaxing stay. Yasser and Mostafa’s attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the motel, making it a delightful place to unwind. A standout feature of Buoy16 Motel is the fantastic restaurant located just below it. The food and drinks here are simply superb. The menu boasts a variety of delicious options, all made with fresh ingredients and crafted with care. Whether you’re in the mood for a hearty meal or just a quick bite, the restaurant offers something for everyone. The drinks are equally impressive, with a great selection of beverages to complement any meal. Overall, Buoy16 Motel, with the dedicated efforts of Yasser and Mostafa, offers an unforgettable experience. The combination of exceptional hospitality, comfortable accommodations, and excellent dining options makes it a perfect choice for any traveler. I look forward to my next visit!

The staff was helpful, the motel is in a great location. This is nothing fancy about this place, No coffee.... no cups or glasses, no beach tags. It was as clean most shore motels I've stayed at anywhere and the room was large and worked well for us. If you want to be pampered or have room service and other amenities this is NOT your place. But if you are looking for a less expensive no frills place to stay while you enjoy the beach and boardwalk, I highly reccomend Buoy 16
