Madison Beach Motel

The Madison was exactly as advertised. Budget friendly motel .... Very walkable to the boardwalk and bars/restaurants. Room are updated, minimal and very clean with a nice bathroom/shower.
We stayed off season so fairly quiet minus some unavoidable street noise. People working front desk were very nice.

This motel is an updated mid century that classfully retains some of the original features like the cross deck and glass blind bathroom windows. I saw two rooms since I upgraded to a 2 bed after arrival and both rooms were fresh and modern (the booking error was on my part). The hotel staff are friendly and attentive, you can tell they are all in love with the beach. Even the bad reviews on google give this place good staff ratings!

Speaking on the bad reviews: this is a budget mid century at the corner of the first series of intersections off the southern bridge in Ocean City. For my first stay, I was incredibly impressed. I passed it for years since I normally stay further up towards Kite Loft and always thought it looked quaint. This year I wanted to stay closer to the Joly Roger amusement park and gave this motel a try. It was absolutely a good decision!

Perfect for a short trip! Staff is helpful and friendly, rooms were very clean and stocked, and you cannot beat the location! This was our 2nd time here (last time was before Covid) so glad to see it is still a great place to stay! We will be back!!
