I really enjoy my stay. I went down by myself to be in the area while my daughter attended senior week. The place was clean, the staff were so friendly. My room was the perfect size for just myself. I would stay again. I wish the check in took place in the building and not across the street and that the room was available at the 4pm check in time. I had to wait an hour to actually get in my room. Other than that, everything was good.

The room was dirty, the walls had holes in them, the WiFi didn’t work had to use my own hotspot on my phone, I checked out early and they wouldn’t refund me for my parking after being made aware of how my stay went. Would never stay there again or recommend to anyone

Liked: Amenities
Room its self had a quick clean job, dust, couple pieces of food along the walls and under the bed. Sheets and blankets were clean. Bathroom was clean and shower had good pressure. Parking is NOT included in the price and is 20 dollars a night. We stayed in a double bed economy room and the building was very loud and you could hear every persons door close on the whole floor. TV is pointless since it’s a smart TV that requires WiFi and there wasn’t any WiFi to connect too! Bring a noise machine or ear plugs if your a light sleeper. Overall you get what you pay for, ok room to sleep in and not much else.

I truly enjoy staying here. It's convenient and a nice environment. The only downfalls this trip were, we were told at check in about the $20 per day parking fee. It appears this is becoming the norm in Ocean City, but it is not listed on hotels.com. $20/day is quite an expense if you weren't expecting it and you don't have much choice to pay, as you have to park. The lamp in our room was shorting out when you touched the cord. The lamp is plugged into the only plug near the bed and where we plugged our phone charger in. The wifi was not working at all on the 2nd night. Despite these few flaws, I would 100% stay here again. The convenience, cleanliness and overall experience is worth it. Thanks!
