I was down at Salisbury University for my 50th College Graduation reunion this past weekend. As an extra special treat for the event, my wife and I decided to stay at the Carousel Hotel on Friday evening, October 10, 2025. Part of the reason for the stay was that we had stayed there 47 years earlier on October 7, 1978, and we have always regarded the Carousel as special. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case, we had a terrible experience on our Friday evening stay. Because of the reunion we checked in around 8 p.m. The check-in was easy and parking was easy. When we went to our room the temperature was 57 degrees with the air conditioning pumping away. I immediately set the thermostat to 72 but the AC continued to blow cold air. My wife and I then went to the front desk and we literally begged to be changed to another room. We were informed that all rooms were under central air and our only option was to turn off the air blower and use a heater that was in the room. My wife and I went back up and indeed there were two radiator heaters in the closet which we immediately plugged in after turning off the fan. We instantly blew a circuit and the room was plunged into darkness. We went back down and reported this new problem and we were told we should only have used one heater. I am not sure how we were to know this since there were two heaters in the room, and the room was very cold. It was a terrible experience

Person at check-in was very nice. Room was decent and clean. View was beautiful. Only drawback to the room was a slamming noise once in a while at all hours. Quite a nice choice for a hotel if you have kids. A lot to offer.

nice but

The hotel was nice. People were nice. Happy hour food excellent burgers. Room: View awesome, balcony awesome, size good. Problems: Bathroom: ceiling fan light did not work, so dusty that it did not pull out air. Couch smelled like pee. Did not notice night one too much but the second night we left the balcony door open and the damper ocean air really made is smell strong. Told them at the front desk at check out she was nice but really expected to get an email or response from the manager
