Check in was very smooth and quick. Got the exact room that I requested. Rates are very reasonable for 1st floor oceanfront. All of the staff has been nothing but friendly and courteous. This place is in our top 3 places to stay in Ocean City, MD.
My stay at the Econo Lodge Oceanfront was really nice. The staff was very welcoming, helpful and friendly. Nice rooms at a reasonable rate and family- oriented atmosphere. The only complaint I would say their advertisement for indoor pool was suppose to be heated pool but pool was not heated. I would give Econo Lodge Oceanfront a 4 out of 5
With all of the above complaints the rooms had bed bugs. Room 320, we were moved to 317 and they both have bed bugs. The same manager was on site whom said he'd check but apparently he did not. He immediately assumed I wanted a refund; but we are bikers and have stayed in lots of hotels we know that this can happen but he did not care about us or the staff that could possibly be put out of a job if the site was to close due to infestation. Nevertheless, I also called corporate and informed them of this situation as well. I did not request a refund and do not expect one. We wrapped ourselves in the sheets the last two nights therefore we did stay in the rooms. That fee would not replace the discomfort that we still have today and the marks that appear on my husbands face, neck and back. Please do something about this hotel, we stayed in the ocean view before with no problems, it may only be this building which is the street view. A trash bag was left on the steps from house keeping; the a/c was broke, the hairdryer did not work, the walls were dirty and full of lent and dust, the bed nearest to the window had blood on the sheet, which apparently was from a bed bug; and the phone didn't work for us to call and report that room 320... 317 the a/c worked and it appeared to have been painted but everything else was basically the same.
The best parts of the stay here: the view/location, the price, the parking (never had an issue finding a spot), & the indoor/outdoor pool facilities. Other than that, it was just "OK" or "good enough" for our couple days stay. The room wasn't the cleanest or most modern or most well-maintained I've been to by any means & the beds really weren't that comfortable...but having the mini kitchenette was really nice & the view every morning was gorgeous. We stayed in one of the 2 XL double bed rooms and the bathroom had a shower/tub combo which was nice if you had small kids. The balcony was pretty spacious but people are allowed to smoke out there so sometimes it kinda ruined the moment inhaling second hand smoke. There is also only a small partition between your room's balcony & the next room's balcony...so you'll likely know your neighbors. We never had any issues with any guests being too loud or the walls being thin which was good. Elevator is sketchy and not clean at all (same bottles and gum in ceiling all 3 days we were there like no one cares about it) & button light for level 3 didn't work. The continental breakfast was "good enough" - fruit, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, small muffins, bagels, oatmeal & cereal were the options we had while there (also juice or coffee). The room for the breakfast area is more like a nice breezeway - nowhere to sit at all - you are expected to take it back to your room and eat it (or take it across the parking lot to the second building where the main lobby is with tables I supposed). One of the things that surprised me the most was the lack of friendliness and hospitality from the staff. The cleaning folks were super friendly but that's as far as it went. For the travel & hospitality industry, I at least expected smiles and a "thanks for staying with us" or "safe travels - we hope you'll come back to see us again" after I signed off on my almost $400 bill....nope, nothing :-/. Overall it was the best bang for our buck for the few days - view and location was amazing (just 2 blocks from the end of the boardwalk) & it was easy access to the beach in front of the hotel (and that spot was a lot less crowded than the area around us).
This hotel was very nice, very clean. There are two pools, inside and out and both were well taken care of. This is a family friendly hotel, we had a five year old and teens and everyone was happy. The rooms were a good size for 5 people, we were right on the beach which was great , did not have to walk far at all. We were however pretty far from the boardwalk, 27 blocks, had to take the tram both ways.Our only complain was the room service, which was non existing, no one cleaned our room, no clean towels unless we asked for them and the garbage was not taken out, we had to do it our selves. They came once and we were getting ready to go out, asked them to return in about 10 minutes, but they never did. We were there for 4 days,I would have left a tip for the maid but she never entered our room to do anything so there was nothing to tip for. But besides that the place was great and we would go there again, but will talk to front desk about the maid service next time. All in all its a good place to stay
