Was great for the Boardwalk Rock Festival, we walked and didnt have to wait for transportation, there were great places to stop and eat or have a drink on the walk there and back to the inlet.

I needed a safe place for 4 high school girls to enjoy graduation week. I found it here. Easy transportation to the underage club. It’s right on the quiet part of the boardwalk & oceanfront. My daughter was safe & had the time of her life. Families and other grads were on property. A happy hotel!

The outside has been completely refreshed and looks great. The property outside including the pool is extremely clean and welcoming. The inside of the units, however, needs a refresh as well. Smelled so moldy I had to buy air fresheners. Furniture seemed like it was from the 50's and smelled like it too.

Friendly and clean

We booked 3 rooms next to each other for family members. Tish, who worked the front desk, was wonderful and communicated with my wife twice before our visit, to answer questions my wife had and to explain the accommodations. The rooms are dated but clean and comfy. The air conditioner was loud but not really bothersome. The location of this motel is perfect. It’s on the quieter end of the boardwalk. The pool was clean and access to the beach was very quick and easy. We had a great time and look forward to another visit to this motel.

First time stay

First time to ocean city, hotel was very clean and staff very nice. My only gripe would be to put a shelf in the bathroom for toiletries. And add a few more tables around the pool. Several famlies would lay claim with placing their items at.the tables that were there and leaving not letting anyone elsenuse them or they laid claim to.the tables before 6 in the am which i found quite ignorant but not the.hotels fault. If we ever go back would certainly stay again

Aged accommodations, you have to ask for amenities that should be available (refrigerator, iron, microwave, clean rug, door handles were dirty, room was sticky, sheets had hair all in the bed when pulling spread back) I never spent 300 dollars for one night in an environment not even suitable for animals.I would have been better off sleeping in my car! Shame on them.

This place may have been a bit dated and a bit pricey. But was still worth it. I realize late in the evening my ac wasn’t working so I asked for a fan. The amazing staff instantly had me in a new room. Manager was super friendly and all the staff was great. Pool was nice rooms were clean. I’ll definitely return
