Staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms had a smell to it not sure what it was but we kept on putting room spray so that helped while we stayed there. The bus shuttle was a plus to go to the board walk.

This is a great little spot for families to visit ocean city! The pools are great and the rooms were comfortable. There are a lot of food options close by that allow you to enjoy that fresh seafood and the shuttle is a great option to get to the beach! 100% recommend if you have kids.
