Desperately needs some love

The only thing that saved this place is the staff. They were so helpful and friendly. After the first night I went to the store and bought bed bug spray, sheets, pillow cases, and blankets and had house keeping take theirs back. I got candles to help the major mold smell. It is not a 10 minute walk not even run to the end of the boardwalk, much longer. Thanks to the staff for being so great and making the stay better

We really enjoyed the on-site diner, and the place was very clean. The staff was friendly and very responsive. The room was a little dated, but the oceanfront balcony was fantastic. The AC was cold put not positioned in the room the best.
Great Ocean view

Great old school Ocean City hotel BUT it could use a good scrubbing. Our room was fine but it looked like the window and the phone had not been cleaned in some time. It’s nice to have these older hotels around but please give them the care they need.
