It's your average hotel room. It's not the Hilton but It was clean and quite so no complaints. Good amount of parking too. I would stay there again. One thing, what is up with that tiny pool in front of the restaurant??? Can you even swim in that???...Do they even still advertise an outdoor pool because they did when I... more

The room was about what we expected in terms of size, but it really was not clean. The bathroom was rather dirty. The carpets throughout the hotel were stained and dirty. My big complaint was that the pool was filthy. There was so much sand at the bottom of the pool and jacuzzi that you may have thought you were... more

My sheets were never... more

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for one night over Labor Day weekend. We picked this hotel strictly for the access to the boardwalk and it did fit that bill. Literally on the boardwalk near 11th street, it was a longish walk to the main rides/arcade area but we had no problem doing the round trip walking. For... more

After the last 2 years of splurging on vacations to Sea World in 06 and Disney ( with ALLL the extras) in 07 money was a HUGE issue for us this year. We had decided to take our girls ( 6 and 13) for a long weekend before school started. I'll be honest, the last 2 vacations we stayed first... more

Parking was fine, first room had a bad plumbing smell, so switched with no problem. It's a very old building, which is nice in one way because the walls are thick with sound insulation. Only concern was the elevator had broken down in the heat a few days before, so we used the stairs most of the time. Housekeeping was... more

We went away to the Howard Johnson Plaza Hotel in June of 2008 as weekend get away. As we were driving down from NYC I was booking the reservations online with this web site: http://www.ocean-city.com/ I called and at first it seemed a little strange that we were going to get a $399 per night room for only $79 but....... more

My family (2 adults and 2 children) decided to go to Ocean City with my parents. We made our reservations for 2 rooms that would be near each other about 2 weeks before our vacation time. When we arrived the first thing we noticed that there was no place to park in order to check in and take in our... more

We made reservations at this hotel, then we read the horrible reviews of it so we cancelled our reservations by phone. They refunded our credit card. Then a few days later they charged our credit card again and a few days later they charged it again!! A total of about $200 was charged to our card (besides the original charge)... more
