Nice stay at the Crystal Beach Hotel Ocean City

It was very pleasant. The woman at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. My room was nice, even with it being an older building they have taken good care of it and it was clean and ready. The view of the beach was great from the 5th floor and there was a small balcony to sit and look at the sea. The location is excellent being right on the beach boardwalk and beach. I was there for a concert and was able to rent a bike to travel to the event from Big Jim’s bikes who were also amazing and helpful. I would not hesitate to stay there again. I ate breakfast at the Barracuda lounge and it was ok. It’s got a nice atmosphere with outdoor seating and would be a great place to hang out and have a beer.

The hotel was nice and the front desk staff upon arrival was very welcoming and pleasant. The maid service wasn’t that good. They cleaned one of my rooms, but didn’t put any clean linen in the room. Other than that, the trip was fun and relaxing!
