CONS- our key card stopped working about two times. The first time I went at a gentleman was at the front desk and he was extremely rude to not only me, but the customers that were in line before me. He looked like he was extremely bothered, and I felt very uncomfortable to even ask him for any help. The second time our key card stopped working. It was after hours so we had to go to the hotel next-door for the engineer to let us in with a master key card. Floor was disgusting. It looks like they don’t warm off. You cannot walk around without shoes on. There was dust everywhere and in the corners there was dirt. PROS- that same gentleman that was extremely rude was very welcoming when we checked in the night before. He was extremely nice so I’m not sure what happened the next day with him. The pool was very clean. They share it with the hotel next-door. Check out is 11 AM which is great because it gave us time to enjoy the morning. They have a little selection of breakfast, which was pretty decent. Overall, the hotel is no bells and whistles, but it was a place to rest our head while we were on vacation.

We were rushed checking in, were told the wrong place were our room was. The man shut the door behind us and out a note on the door they were closed. We got in the room at first look the room was nice recently up dates and then we went in the bathroom. The bathroom was from 1950 and all along the side of the bathroom were cigarette burns. There was no toilet paper so at 11:30 pm we had to go to purchase toilet paper, the tissue box was also empty. Tried to go to the front desk at 7:30 next morning as we were leaving to go out the next morning and they were still closed. Stayed 3 nights and they never came in to clean the room. Went to front desk again door was open but no one was at the desk waited 15 minutes as many people were in there waiting to speak with someone and no one came to the desk. The smell of weed coming into our room every night was terrible. I

Had to return to front desk 3 times before I was able to get a functioning key card and room. The floor was so dirty I had to keep shoes on my entire stay. There were stains on the sheets. Only one person working front desk so don’t expect to check in anywhere on time. I got there at 2:50 and didn’t get into a room until 3:40. They had to switch my room twice, during the second attempt I had to wait for the room to be cleaned. Highly highly don’t recommend

It was better in the past.

Well, we had to check in at the Microtel next door. There was some snot on the shower wall. The washing machine ate our quarters. Had to ask for more toilet paper. The beds were clean and comfortable, the TVs worked, and the shower had good hot water. I think they were shorthanded. We survived but were slightly disappointed

I made this reservation as a back up while camping at the Assateague National Seashore. I made the reservation in January for the stay in June. The room was reserved for 4 days. The room was clean and reasonable.

My key card stopped working at least once every day and I got locked out of my room on my last night for an hour because the key card stopped working and the office was closed. Had to walk over to the next hotel and I guess she had a key card for this one. All in all not bad, just slightly disappointed.

It was nice, a little vintage on the outside but remodeled on the inside. However the blinds should be replaced to something that blocks the light from outside shining in all night long. Also a larger mirror to check out your outfit not just your face. Other than that it was nice.

It wasn't a bad stay. Only complaints are no fridge/microwave and very thin walls. The room was very clean, the staff were polite.
