Castle in the Sand

10/10 Excellent

"Almost everything good"

Fenwick Inn

8/10 Good

"Room was spotless. Internet wasn't good. Finally was able to connect. Had trouble with the television connecting to my account s. Reastaurnt the villa was excellent. My stay in the area got delayed bye a day . I was very happy I could get a room there on really short notice. If I need to go back in ocean city again this will be my first option."

Ashore Oceanfront Hotel by Marriott

8/10 Good

"The room was just ok. It had only 1 usable outlet plug (literally one) on the night stand. The other 2 outlets were on the opposite sides of the room, one by the door with no tables (I had to charge my phone from the floor) and the second outlet was for the TV, coffee machine and light so not usable. Side note, very poor lighting in the room. Just seemed to have a lot of night lights on instead of real light. The best part of the stay was the staff who were all wonderful. Everyone was very nice and helpful. Something else to note, that I learned the hard way, is that the Hotel itself is oceanfront, but the rooms have a Partial Ocean View. It's still a nice view but not oceanfront. You also cannot hear the ocean because the AC units outside are so loud. The balcony was very small and really has no purpose. You can stand out there but not for long because the condensation from the upstairs AC unit drips and you can't sit out there. The elevator was also super slow. And because it was so slow, it was always packed so that was no fun. It was not miserable but definitely not what I expected, and we won't be going back. I would give the staff 5 stars and the hotel itself a 3/4. It was clean but a bit rundown with lipstick to cover it up."

Princess Bayside Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"The rooms were okay, but the furniture could definitely use some updating. The area was quiet and peaceful, and the hallways were clean and well-maintained. The room was okay the sofa bed had a huge stain no sheets or pillows or blankets for the sofa bed I called downstairs to get extra blankets and sheets to use for the sofa bed, and no one never came. Snack and soda machine near the room. my Favorite was the private beach in the back of the hotel small but not to crowded with people water bottles are also a dollar at the kayak rental behind the hotel not too many beach chairs in the back to sit overall I gave it a six out of ten."
