    "Is there a Pier 4 staff member you would like to recognize?" ME because front desk called me to bring the luggage cart back downstairs
    Casey F.

    My family was looking to stay at a place near my Aunt and Uncle's shore house and found this hotel. They decided to stay here since one of our cousin's has come here and said it was his go-to place. The motel is relatively clean, I'll give them that. There's what it ends... First of all, we arrived 15 minutes after check-in was supposed to start. My Mom and I had to drive around the parking lot FIVE TIMES at least before we found a spot (second to LAST SPOT in the back of the parking lot). This is due to all the people going to the restaurant next door (The Crab Trap) and using the hotel's parking......... When we arrive, the woman checking in asked for our license plate number, and when my Mom said she wasn't sure, she pretty much demanded that "by tonight", my Mom needed to take a picture of the license plate to show her (we never ended up doing that...). Since we had a lot of bags, I used a luggage cart that they had in the lobby to bring our bags upstairs. The cart was super hard to navigate and the wheels would barely move. It kept crashing into walls and not moving. There is only one elevator in the entire motel, and it runs slow as molasses. (And the elevator is SMALL), it fits 3-4 people comfortably MAX. Any more than that is super super confining and claustrophobic. When we got into our hotel room, the room seemed clean. The remote is covered in plastic (that we were NOT to remove according to the directions). There was also a sign in the bathroom talking about how all everyone raves about their "spa towels" and how they're able to be purchased for a set price. The towels felt SUPER rough... In addition, if any items were missing, they listed an itemized price list of how much you would pay for each item. Once we got in the room, I left the luggage cart outside our room (figuring that hotel staff would grab it and bring it down). Five minutes after we got in our room, we received a phone call on the hotel phone. I answer and the Front Desk asks if I took a cart. When I said yes and that I left it outside the room, she says "Can you bring it down for the other guests to use since there's only three?" Is it normal for hotel guests to have to bring the cart back down??? I almost wanted to ask what their hourly rate was so that they could pay me... Our hotel room also had a door which appears to be a conjoined room. However, we were nervous since the door didn't 100% close within the door frame (or at least didn't look like it), so we were scared someone from next door could come in if they really wanted to. We slept fine in the room (the bed and the pillows were comfortable enough. In the morning, when we were checking out, we went in the elevator and there was a used condom in the corner......... We notified the front desk and they were appalled that they had never seen that in their 26 years of working as a staff member. Also, the cleaning supplies that the maids were using were very very strong and have a sickening powdery chemical smell. It ended up choking my Nana, and she is used to cleaning with bleach which is strong.. All in all, the motel served its purpose (we were only here two nights), but I wouldn't want to come back...

    Initially my husband and I found the hostile signage around the hotel to be funny. The vibe of the place is opposite of hospitality. An hour after checking out I got a voicemail stating pillows and covers were missing and we were being charged an additional $90. First of all, hotel pillows are disgusting. Pillows used by the public harbor lots of bacteria and it's always advised to use your own. I have neck arthritis and my husband and I brought our nice tempurpedic pillows. I have never stolen in my life and never will steal. My husband and I drove back to the hotel after we were finished lunch and offered to have the front desk staff search our car because we didn't steal anything. Then the house keeping staff apologized and said she found the pillows and covers. Our $90 would not be refunded until we call and speak to the manager. The 90$ doesn't even match the posted threats in the bathroom which was $70 total... This place is so fraudulent and dishonest. I wonder how many other innocent people have been accused of stealing who haven't. Thankfully we were still in town so we could go back in person. The lady at the front desk Toni was incredibly rude. She eventually said sorry but it was not genuine at all! We were overcharged for our room. We were charged a bay view price $284 a night but stayed at a "city view" room $254. The air conditioner above us was dripping on our balcony. Overall the charge for 2 nights was $651.08 with taxes and fees. We were overcharged by 60$. I have a screen shot from their website of rates. False advertising.... Definitely staying somewhere else when we visit ocean city again! The NJ department of consumer affairs should investigate this place. The culture of the place appears to be shady- definitely need hospitality training! Please be careful! Go somewhere else! The people who work here are so rude and hostile! I left there crying. Don't go here!

    Passive aggressive sign in the bathroom. Not sure who in their right mind would want to take the bedding or towels from this place, YUCK!

    The building is relatively updated and we liked that each room has a private patio. Sadly, the beds and pillows and blankets were TERRIBLE! Felt like the pillows were stuffed with wood chips and a bag of air. The bedding also smelled like straight bleach. I hope they can take this feedback and update the most important part of a hotel, the bed!

    Bathroom dirty from previous guess

    Horrible experience .. we drove for many hours and we where tired . Try getting a room and they told us they only had one room left and we took it .. price was moderate . We took the room . Once we got to the place . They have a room to our family member that called after us and they gave them our room and we got a different room .( totally different room from the one they told us on the phone ) so my friend got a room after they told us they only had one ... no problem thats fine we was tired and all we wanted was to sleep ..... but what got me angry was that once we open our room door we found the worse thing ever ... disgusting !!! ... Im not sure if they have it to us to mess with us or what was their deal ... but after they have us another room .. now when we talk on the phone again they said we got the last room .. but yet they had another empty one and the one they gave my friends who they called after us . And just the fact that the receptionist was told to us after we told her that we didn't order a small room we order a big room . And she told me " well you guys can gladly leave " this got me more mad but we was driving over 16 hours to get to rest and on top of that I had 6 more hours to drive home . All I wanted was to sleep and not argue .. The picture bellow show how we open our room for the first time and what we found .

    Hotel staff was very nice, room smelled and looked fairly clean. Breakfast was COVID continental everything was prepackaged and available for grab and go. Pool is nice 5ft feels with lifeguard on duty, bottom of the pool does appear sandy, but it's just the lining that's dirty. Great bay view looking into the Ocean Side. Pillows are extremely soft and the bed is a very firm mattress. The bathroom vent was very dirty and one bathroom tile was showering moves and looks like it does not fit in the space( kind of creepy).

    The pool is large. And it is really nice.

    See all

    A good hotel, clean, no issues. Try the seafood restaurant within walking distance at the adjacent property.

    We chose this hotel because we specifically wanted a suite. Suites typically have a separate…read morebedroom, otherwise they would be simply called a hotel room. This was not a suite. It was a slightly larger room with a sofa just a few feet away from the beds. Not only was this not a suite, but the bathroom sink was just a few feet away from the bed. If one needed to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, they would have to awaken everyone in the room by turning on the light to wash their hands. We decided to make the best of it, and looked for ice in our freezer to have a drink (kitchen was also in the one big room). No ice. No ice cube trays. We called the front desk to ask for the location of an ice machine. She told us to move the arm down on our ice maker. We told her there was no ice maker. She insisted there was. We told her again there wasn't. She didn't believe us. She finally offered us some ice from their kitchen, which we had to go get. Breakfast. Wasn't. Apples, cereal, granola bars and packaged, sugary muffins. There was a toaster, but nothing to toast. Even the cheapest motels offer bagels, English muffins or bread. Oh, and they allow animals. If you are allergic, or don't want to hear barking at all hours, stay away. Come to think of it, stay away anyway. They got a star because the bed was comfortable. They also do not provide any service. You need towels, or soap, or anything - come and get it....lol. Don't forget to make your bed.

    A smidge on the retro side could Use some updating…read more We had a loft suite which gave us room to spread out for the evening. Beds seem comfortable. There was an unknown splatter on the bathroom wall, behind the door, not sure if it gets missed or is stained. full kitchen is nice. The vinyl couch and chair were weird 80s vibe I generally don't complain but it wasn't as clean as it should be, there was food remnants in the microwave and fridge.

    The first thing I saw was the pool with a dirt ring around the top of the pool and remained there…read moreour entire stay. The office seemed dingy and dirty and wound up not taking part of the free breakfast they served in the office because id rather pay for a breakfast from someplace cleaner. Now the room was something left to be desired as well the fire alarm was hanging off of the wall by its wires everything that was metal had rust the plaster and paint on the walls were dirty pellets bubbled out and cracked the floor underneath the fake wood flooring was littered with holes and was rotting out to the point I thought we were going to fall through. The drawers had dirt and looked like coffee was spilled in the drawer and left there to leave a sticky stain. The bathroom had mold and mildew in the creases of the shower. The kitchen had a stove no sink in the kitchen nothing to cook with for a room with 2 queen beds it only had a small dining table with 1 rolling desk chair a very small mini fridge. Half of the outlets were lopsided cracked dirty and our plugs wouldn't even stay in them they would just fall to the floor as soon as you put something in it so we couldnt charge anything we had to use our car to charge our phones and devices. The motel itself seemed to have alot of permanent residents who seemed to be on drugs half of the time. There were disabled cars pared on the grassy spots in the back would not recommend this place to anyone just stay away

    This motel was the absolute worst overnight stay that I have ever had. Filthy dirty bathroom…read more We only used sink to brush our teeth. Ceiling Paint peeling above tub/shower area. Toilet wobbled if you sat on it, not completely bolted down to floor. We used across the street wawa bathroom in morning. Skipped showers, complained to front desk and had to wait for Manager call back next day. They offered 20% back for our problematic stay!!! This motel should not be open for business. Cost was $230.00 for Saturday night stay! Trust me.... Find somewhere else!
