This hotel was good for what my family needed at the last minute last summer. We didn't know until 2 weeks before travelling that we would actually be able to get to Ocean City, MD. It is not on the beach, but one block off the beach. My kids are 10 and above so they can all walk and carry their own beach bags. Access to beach is through a public road access. Room and beds were clean. Pull out sofa sleeper was clean. Staff was friendly and responded to the one need we had. Our bathroom toilet wouldn't flush completely when we got there. We called front desk and immediately they came to fix it. The price was good for a last minute reservation. We did not go to the pool, we were there for the beach. So, I can't comment on it. It is a drive to the Boardwalk from here, so, it isn't the place to stay if you want to stroll the Boardwalk everyday.
