The room was safe and remodeled well. It was very good for a motel. Parking was tight in the main lot and the nearby street. They have an auxiliary lot but it was over a block away. We had trouble with power to the refrigerator but they brought an extension that served well.

So disappointed in this property. There’s absolutely not enough parking so you have to park blocks away, with a parking pass which is super inconvenient. There are no elevators so you have to drag your bags up three floors. The quality of the room was beyond low budget From the towels to the sheets to the mold growing in the shower in the corners, I would never stay here again. Nor recommend it to anyone else.

Fantastic little gem in Ocean City

My husband and I stayed here for a long weekend to attend a multi-day music festival, and we were very impressed with how friendly and attentive the staff were. We had a minor water leak from the toilet base and it was addressed and fixed the same day. Our room was spacious and clean. Having the full refrigerator and kitchen were great. Highly recommend this hotel if you're in the area and just looking for a clean place to rest your head!
