Great value, can’t beat the location. We stayed in a dog friendly room, I would suggest removing carpet from these toiles to help with odor. Really happy overall for the value and plan to come back to this hotel.

The guest room was clean without the lingering smell of cleaners. My ‘dog friendly’ room was on first floor which made dog walking quite easy. But on entry corridor, my dog heard every guest comong and going.

We were not expecting it, but we ended up having an end room w 2 sets of windows on the side and ocean view from our little deck. The room was huge with 2 queen beds, a pull out couch, and fridge and microwave. The bathroom was nice and big as well. I liked that there was a table in there to put all your toiletry things on it. We were here in mid October and was able to get an amazing price for this room. Room was clean and staff did check in quickly. I would definitely look into this place again to stay if we were coming to Ocean City again.
