The Sun Shine is a family-owned, older facility, in a very convenient location for visits to Wildwood. It has amenities and foibles similar to budget-priced motels, but at a higher price due to the location.
The owners were kind and welcoming, but the facility needed some maintenance and TLC. The latch on the entry door just barely held on to the jamb, the secondary chain lock was secured by short screws held in place by inertia and paint, the bathroom door did not shut properly, and the ceiling was slathered with thick layers of popcorn paint, apparently to hide issues with leaks or craftsmanship. Though it didn't bother me much, and we had no problems, the ill-fitting entry door would make some feel unsafe, especially if it was a ground-floor room.
The amenities were those of a budget motel; spotty wireless, thin bars of no-name soap, no shampoo or hair dryer, and a meager supply of thin, scratchy towels. Because we liked the paradoxical combination of great location and low price, we brought our own supplies. The beds were comfortable, the room was clean and did not smell of smoke, and we accepted the poorly fitted doors and funky furniture as idiosyncratic manifestations of frugal owners with a do-it-yourself ethic.
There are fancier places in Wildwood, and cheaper places offshore, but for the location, price and friendly owners, we were happy with the Sun Rise, and our experience was positive. We would consider staying again for future trips.
