Cabana Motel

I stayed here for a week and had a great experience.

To be honest, the rooms aren't very nice, but I knew what I was paying for and rate was fair.

The 5-star review is for my experience with the live-in manager, Anil. He was friendly, responsible, and ethical.

For context, most of Ocean City lodging is owned by absentee owners who regularly take advantage of locals and guests.

While Cabana may not have been the nicest property, it was the most well-run and easy to do business with. (I've stayed at 5 different hotels / motels over the past 3 months).

Would stay again.

I'm not sure if I need to say much more but my room had a busted door jamb and when I calmly mentioned this to the "manager" he said it was no problem and very safe and the only thing he did was offer me to change rooms which if one room is like that I'm not trusting the hotel.

On top of that this might sound a little weird but I'm pretty sure I dropped a very very very very very valuable SD card with personal photos on it that I was hoping to edit that night in the hotel and the guy was completely unhelpful in helping me look it was a full size SD adapter that should not be something that disappears.

I asked to talk to the owner he flatly refused.

He spoke with oddly hurried speech and almost was ranting and raving it was not a good customer service experience the ownership can feel free to reach out to me the guy specifically took my phone number they can call me at any time to discuss this.

The individual's name was Johnny or Jimmy or something along those lines. Again I think the door jamb photo speak for themselves.

I love Ocean City and this motel is right in the middle of it! The rooms are good and the motel was nice and quiet - no problems. The reason I am writing this review is because the owner/manager helped me out with switching rooms. He wound up upgrading me at no cost. That really never happens. So thanks to the Cabana Motel and the nice guy at the desk running the place!
