The Starlux
1 review for The Starlux
Growing up in suburban Philadelphia, our summer vacations consisted of trips "down the shore" to Wildwood where the boardwalks were filled with condoms and needles. We used to go on those "haunted house" type rides and lay on the beach surrounded by hairy Italian men.
After many, many years of being away from the Jersey Shore, not much has changed. We didn't know where to stay now, since my parents weren't getting a hotel, so my boyfriend found this place. It definitely stands out from the rest of the shitty 70s era hotels. Instead, this is a throwback to the retro 70s era hotel. So instead of that puke green color that all 70s appliances had, this hotel has retro patterns, like a space-age lounge pad. I'm thinking of the artist Shag well-dressed girls with big beehive hairdos, Tiki idols, and pink elephant cocktails.
The room we stayed in was fairly cheap--around $90/night. And you can stay in an Airstream Trailer which is parked across the street. The strange thing is that it looks like it's in the backyard of a house there. When we went, the price of the Airstream was the same as our room, but it had already been booked.
The only thing that sucked was the vomit that was collected on the side of the pool. Thumbs down, upchuck!
