Based on the reviews, I thought this motel would be the perfect choice. I was wrong! Parking is a nightmare, there was mold in the shower and sand under the tub mat. Housekeeping came into our room at 9:00 a.m. without even knocking to clean our room (We did not have to leave until 11:00 a.m.) .We were directly across... more

A few friends and I (two guys & two girls total) wanted to go to the Jersey Shore for a couple days. I somehow found myself in charge of finding a hotel for us to stay in (probably because I'm the hardest to please when it comes to this sort of stuff). After weeks of searching and reading reviews on... more

we had a great stay at the Impala. Great location, clean room! my only complaint is that they don't have any type of kitchen so if you are going for an extended stay, i wouldn't reccommend it. Thier resteraunt the blooming tulip was nice and reasonably priced. great trip, let us check in early and everything! definatly recommend! more

We just stayed here for 2 nights with our 2 kids, 6 & 4. Rooms were VERY clean (a big deal to us). Nothing fancy, but for the price, definitely a good choice. The pool was nice, too. Only negative is the parking - definitely nowhere near enough spots at the hotel, there is a lot about a block and... more

Thank you to the Impala Island Inn our vacation was saved. My daughter and I travelled to OC July 2009 and originally were staying somewhere else. When we got to the "other place" it was a nightmare. I quickly called the Impala and found they had a room for the nights we needed and were VERY accommodating to me. The... more

I have stayed at the Impala a few times and have never been disapointed. The rooms have always been clean and the staff very friendly. It's close to everything in OC so once you park there's no need for your car until you leave. A block from the boards which is nice if you have kids. more

My husband, 5 year old son and 7 year old daughter stayed for three nights in mid August 2008. The price, cleanliness, parking and location can not be beaten. I took Lysol wipes to wipe down the place but could not find a speck of dirt, not even on the bathroom floor. The blankets, pillows, mattresses and box springs seemed... more

The best thing about the Impala Island Inn is the close proximity to the boardwalk and beach. It's not oceanfront, but it's right at the end of the ramp leading to the boardwalk. If you have kids, it's directly next to the Playland Amusement Park, and there is a kiddie pool on the property for very small children. The rooms... more

The Impala Island Inn is an average, old fashioned hotel. For us, the great location made up for what it lacked in luxury. We did have a hard time communicating with the cleaning staff. I believe they were Eastern European and still learning English. But the room was clean and we received the extra towels we requested. The one side... more
