Econo Lodge Oceanfront

Rooms in the non ocean front building are clean but kinda outdated . Bathroom door would not shut . Hot water takes a while to heat before showering. Only pool is available in the ocean front property . I booked my stay on Booking.com & thought we were getting "Ocean Front " as stated ... there was no way of knowing about two separate properties on with a street view. Beds were comfortable, but small for two people. We did however enjoy the complementary free breakfast, very convenient.

If you’re looking for a reasonably priced place close to the beach, this is a great choice. Rooms are clean and well-equipped. Full size fridge, stove, oven, microwave, and sink. In-room balcony. Comfy beds and pillows. Service is great. I left some valuables in the room safe and the desk clerk immediately called us and we were able to pick it up before we left town.

I stayed at the Quality Inn Beachfront in Ocean City, MD. Our room was clean, and the bathroom and shower were nice and well-maintained. One of the best things about this hotel is the location — it’s right by everything! We could easily walk to the beach, the boardwalk, Jolly Roger’s amusement park, and lots of restaurants. That made our trip super easy and fun because we didn’t have to drive anywhere.

I also really liked that the hotel offered free breakfast. Even though we had to make our own pancakes, the breakfast area was always kept clean and well-stocked with fresh food, which not all hotels do well.

There were a few things I didn’t like though. The indoor pool had hair floating in it, which was kind of gross and made it hard to enjoy swimming. It also took a long time for our room to be ready when we arrived, which was frustrating after traveling. The elevator was really old and shaky — it felt like it could break at any second, and that made me nervous every time I used it. While walking around one of the hotel floors, we overheard people arguing loudly in a room, which made the atmosphere feel uncomfortable at times. Also, the staircase was kind of confusing, and we think we might have gone down more floors than we were supposed to while trying to find our way around. Another thing is the balconies are pretty close to each other, so there’s not a lot of privacy, and you can kind of see into other people’s balconies.

From reading other reviews online, especially on Reddit and Tripadvisor, some common complaints I’ve seen include inconsistent cleanliness, with some guests reporting pests like bed bugs or cockroaches; maintenance issues such as broken elevators or faulty air conditioning; noisy guests or parties that disrupt the peace; and sometimes unfriendly or unhelpful staff when problems are reported. These are things to keep in mind if you’re thinking about staying here.

Overall, the location and room were great, and the free breakfast was a nice bonus. But the hotel could improve by keeping shared spaces cleaner, making the environment quieter and more peaceful, and updating older features like the elevator to make guests feel safer.
