Fair review

The staff were friendly and helpful. The ceiling of the room had a brown substance sprayed across it, the moldings were dusty, and there was a musty smell coming from the air conditioner. The balcony had the most lovely view of the ocean, however the balcony above was heavily leaking a/c and it appeared unstable/not safe. My biggest feedback was the broken deadbolt. I stacked my cans in front of the door at night. If the brown spew across the ceiling was not there, I may have felt more comfortable. The outdoor pool was lovely.

Pretty nice.

Nice room and in pretty good shape except for the balcony door (wasn't sealing properly until I adjusted) and the ripped screen to the balcony - left in a pesky fly. Comfortable bed & small but nice bathroom. All-in-all a good value for the location.

Wouldn’t stay here twice

Main door does not seal, floor was wet from rain when we entered. Bathroom smelled of rancid mildew, severely outdated, no storage space. Only one lamp/light in the room was working. Tv picture was awful with black line down the center. AC did not work (blowing but not cold) when arrived, reported issue and it was fixed. Floors were unswept, sheets wouldn’t stay on mattress, iron didn’t work.

This motel is part OC Resorts (OCResorts.com). So let’s start this review. The place isn't a 2.5 or 2 star motel let alone a one star motel. Room musty. Mold in in bathroom with brown water running from from the tub facet. Place is in major need of of a rehabilitation or better yet torn down and rebuilt. Staff was another story and to long to get into but be aware that if you request a different room based on your dissatisfaction or give the staff any problems or disagree with them they will use the exemption they have under the Maryland laws to evict you from the room and take your remaining room rental and security deposit. Did I mention that they charge a security deposit fee that they will grab if they evict you. So be prepared to dispute the charges with your credit card company. So if you are considering this motel or any properties in this group I would reconsider my selection and go elsewhere. Hope this helps.

The staff was great. Check in was easy. Provided me all the information needed to stay on property. The room was clean, but was lacking. Some of the outlets didn’t work. Thin blankets on bed and no fitted sheet. AC and TV worked great. All in all we were comfortable during our stay while visiting for a music festival.
