It was clean and everything worked--more than I could say for many other more expensive rooms I've stayed in. The shower was exceptionally good. Watch out for the hot water: very hot! The TV had Netflix, Hulu, Roku, & Vudu. And they worked. On the downside, the furnishings and carpet were worn, but not terrible.

Keep your socks on - great for the price!

Our floor was very sticky, so keep your socks on. Everything else was really lovely, for the price we paid. Service was amazing, very kind and accommodating. Bathroom is old, but clean. Beds are comfy. Fridge and microwave are new and useful. If you’re looking for affordable and you won’t spend a lot of time there, Driftwood Inn is perfect.

I have never bailed on a motel booking. Smelly room, dodgy neighborhood, broken equipment and cig butts everywhere… no way.

Very good budget option

I decided to go low-budget for my two-night stay in Chestertown (in town for the Rock Hall Triathlons). This place is convenient and an excellent choice for someone who doesn't plan to spend a lot of time in their room. Rooms are spare w/no frills. Basically four lights in the entire room (overhead, wall, bathroom, shower). Bed was reasonably comfortable. I did notice that the shower temperature control looked a little grungy on the inside; otherwise, the room was clean and fit for purpose. I would stay here again if I were seeking to economize.

The room was very old looking. Rust in the tub, paint peeling, old furniture. No peep hole on the door. Didn’t seem very secure.

Room smelled really bad. There was hair in the bathroom and only wiring where the smoke detector used to be. We used our own sheets and opted not to use the shower.

I just needed place to stsy before hunting trip. Guy knocked on door for a jump start to his car. Made me bit nervous, but he was ok. Room was dirty, smelled like car air fresheners, bathroom looked like it was from 60's, green & yellow tiles. The door looked like it was busted into a few times, latch was busted, i felt unsafe to sleep so i put a chair under the handle. Could hear neighbor business all night. Will not be staying there again. So the saying goes, "you get what you paid for"

Back in 15 minutes !?!

Went to check in. Front lobby locked. Sign says “back in 15 minutes”. Check-in after receptionist returns. Go to room. Prepare to take shower and realize there are no towels. Front lobby locked. Sign says “back in 15 minutes”. Go back numerous times over several hours. Front lobby locked. Sign says “back in 15 minutes”. Skip the shower. Next morning go to check out. Front lobby locked. Sign says “back in 15 minutes”.
