It's a cheap motel. I would stay again. That being said. The floors were absolutely dirty. No carpet all vinyl plank floors.Need to be scrubbed real bad. Feet turn black in 1 min walking on them. We bout cheap $5 beach towels and laid down, which does help keep sand out of the bed. The breaker blew 4 times for no reason which controlled the AC...so kind of important . There is a $10 a day parking fee which is in small print in the description... Didn't see it till I went looking for it. Pool was clean. Like I said , I'd stay again but it is a no frills motel. It's a place to sleep.

For the price, I knew it wasn't going to be pretty which is why I won't bash this place entirely. However, if a large part of your travel is the hotel experience, then the Cabana is not for you. This is simply a \"SSS\" motel. Or, at least Room 21 is. At first glance I had doubts, but the room was relatively clean. There were no bed bugs, we never ran out of hot water, and the A/C unit kept the room cool. The TV, albeit small, worked and the pool was decent. The housekeeper was a sweetheart accommodating all our requests. The room was very small with what was supposed to be a queen but was clearly a double. If management took time to caulk holes, paint and made sure the furniture had all its knobs, it could go a long way. Now what I really didn't like was the $10 per day parking fee. The website said parking is complimentary, but the explanation at the counter is its free for those who book directly through the hotel. I suggested to change the verbiage to say that, but that excuse was 3rd party travel platforms would be offended plus they offer discounts on the rates. What!!! It's a total scam, but I let it go. I would never say not stay here, just know the expectations before you go.

This motel was not horrible I have stayed in worse. However, the floor was nasty did not look or feel like it was cleaned. When I booked my room it said it had a microwave when I got into the room there was no microwave. I had to go to the office twice before getting one. On the bright side the beds were extremely comfortable and the water pressure my daughter love for washing her hair! I would stay again for a last minuite booking.

Good budget option in Ocean City, MD. Parking is $10/day on property. Rooms were clean, but towels were poorly stocked and there are no hangers or closets in the room. Furniture is poor quality and bathroom was tiny - but hot water and pressure were great in shower. AC worked great. Would’ve liked a water dispenser in lobby and more information at check-in. Good in a pinch, especially for location!

We had come down from DE. the night prior and actually slept in the car. I walked into the lobby at 9am and explained our previous night's excursions, and I asked if I paid extra could we check-in early and the pleasant older gentleman asked for my i.d. confirmed my reservation and let us check-in a full 6 hrs. ahead of usual check-in time (FOR FREE). The room was basic but I'm at the beach for the beach, it was enough to shelter me for the night. No Bugs, no trash, bathroom was clean, shower functioned fine. TV and microwave worked fine. For no other reason I would have been great, thanks to the Amazing customer service, I had a wonderful weekend, and I will be back again. It is conveniently located right in the mix of everything. If you just want to stay for the night or a few that won't break the bank, then I suggest this place but if you want the royal treatment and expect a red carpet with mints on your pillow then go pay that. Thank you again to the staff and I greatly appreciate your hospitality, and I will be returning soon.

HORRIBLE MANAGER WHO YELLS AT PEOPLE.....The room was absolutely disgusting and smelled soo bad like cigarettes even tho the property is non smoking. Roaches were crawling out of the tv, the toilet stopped working within hours of being there. The bed looked like someone was sleeping in it before we got there because there was hair and crumbs still on the bed. The shower was never cleaned and still had dirt and hair on the bottom. The door wouldn't even shut all the way which is major saftey concern. To top all of this off, when i called to speak to the manager about a refund, he proceeded to yell at me saying he will not help me and hung up on me. This property needs to be shut down by the town of ocean city. Also as i was leaving another person staying at this motel was trying to beat up some guy with a skateboard as he was walking with his children. The literal ghetto

I showed up at the property at 10 pm for a late check in when the website said they staff their office from 10pm-2am. No one was there and no one responded to phone calls. I ended up having to rent a full price room further down in ocean city at the last minute because otherwise I would have had to sleep in my car. Do NOT stay at this place in the off season, they don’t care about you and won’t follow their alleged posted hours. Absolutely awful experience.

I just planned to get a few hours of sleep and go back to work. Upon my arrival the office was closed and could not check in so I drove home slept for 4 hours and drove back to work.

This weekend stay was a birthday-getaway/spiritual sabbatical. It was intended to be spartan and bare-bones; and with this price-point, I figured that is what it would be. And I was right. This was an early March stay, and even though the room had heat, the bathroom window was one of those louvered Jalousie windows, and the adjuster knob didn't work, and the window was slightly ajar, allowing more cold air to come in. The bathroom door had to be kept shut, and when you had to go in there, it was like doing your business outside in 40 degrees. Also at this price-point you get a wide variety of guests, so on my 2nd night, it was kind of noisy. So if you're seeking peace and quiet, this is not your place. If it doesn't matter, have at it. The room was fairly clean, but dated, and maintenance is needed. The bed was firm and comfortable. Interesting was that you would think the electrical switch right inside the door would be for a light. No. It was for the microwave. I don't know if every room is that way. There's only about 40 TV stations available. It seems like every hotel I stay in has low wattage bulbs in their lamps, and is nearly impossible to read by. Though dangerous, bring a bright bulb with you if you want to read. Which reminds me. There was no Gideon Bible in my room. Glad I brought my own. Stay here if you just need a place to sleep and keep your stuff. They still have free parking, and there is a spot for every room- which is rare.

Choosing this hotel was a last minute decision and chosen by price. That being said, I was not impressed by Cabana Motel. The sheets were dirty, the floor was cracked and dirty, the ceiling tiles were sagging and had water spots, the outlets were broken, and the smoke detector didn’t even have batteries in it. I stayed for 3 nights and each night I could hear something moving in the ceiling. Once it moved fast enough to shift a ceiling tile. The shower was very sensitive and the slightest adjustment would go from freezing to boiling. Anytime someone flushed the toilet from another room the shower went blazing hot. This stay was an adventure but by far the worst experience I’ve ever had.

Stellar service

Location was great - close to everything. The property isn’t in great condition and the linens weren’t new (some stains), but it was functional for what we needed. The service though - exceptional. The owner, Anil, and Natasha went above and beyond to accommodate our late arrival and early departure times. Incredibly kind people. They made the whole stay worthwhile.

You get what you pay for

The man checking us in was wonderful. The good things ended there. Between finding a hair claw/clip on the bed that wasn't mine, what appeared to be black mold on the walls in the bathroom, and the fact that we didn't have toilet paper or even a toilet paper HOLDER on the wall in the bathroom. I am never one to care where I stay when I just need somewhere to sleep, but even I cared this time. Nothing was overtly disgusting, but I still slept on top of the sheets with my beach towel as a blanket. Thankfully it was just one night. After 40 years in OCMD I finally found a place I won't stay again.

I liked that this property was close to the boardwalk & beach. For how much the rooms cost I didn't like sleeping on stained linens, also had broken off toilet lid in my double bed room, and didn't see a handle for bathtub water, had to only use shower. and some cable channels would get stuck in scramble mode. My family Did't like the small TVs in the King rooms. Could do better, and with the high price of this property could go down when other properties go down.

This was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had.
Black mold in various spots, especially in the bathroom.
Unsafe furniture with screws sticking out — I cut my foot on one.
The first night was $150. When we went to extend for a second night, the manager suddenly demanded $400 for the same room. We left.
I accidentally left my backpack under the bed with my MacBook and iPad inside. When I called, the staff was dismissive and never returned my calls.
I drove back, scanned for the devices, and confirmed they were still there. The manager acted very suspicious. Only after hours of persistence and mentioning police involvement did another staff member quietly hint at where my bag was, which eventually led me to recover it.
During this process, I overheard staff speaking English with each other, but when I confronted them about my missing bag they suddenly pretended not to understand me. This was clearly an attempt to avoid responsibility.
Between the mold, unsafe conditions, and dishonest handling of my belongings, this place is both dangerous and shady. I chose not to file a police report only because I wanted to focus on my family vacation, but in my opinion, this was attempted theft.
The manager has a unique facial feature and actually lives at the hotel. Do not trust this guy or his staff.
Stay far away from Cabana Hotel.

Worst place to stay

Bed broke when we sat in it, there was black mold everywhere because there was no ventilation. Tv didn’t work, all lamps, air conditioning, tv, microwave and fridge overloaded on ONE outlet! Shower head and handle was tore out of the wall and moved around.

Okay motel, a bit rundown

This motel was a bit more old and run down than some of the other cheap motels in OC we have stayed at. It was sort of clean enough. The towels were old and worn out and scuff marks on the walls. Also it was annoying that there was no outdoor shower, which made our room sandier. Staff was friendly and helpful. If the price is right okay to stay here, but not great. We stayed on a weeknight. Parking was included and we were able to park in the lot a few hours before and after check in, which was nice.

The staff was fine but the room really needed some work. Mold in the bathroom, bugs and spider webs all over the window screen, dirty floor, some lights and the TV didn't turn on, and the walls were warped and stained. Good location but not a pleasant stay.

Convenient to everything so that’s a plus. The only plus. Staff are very friendly.
Flooring for steps and porch look rotted and needs to be replaced. Mold and ants in the bathroom, hair in the drain. Noisy as in you can hear every conversation in the building. Especially outside at all hours of the night. Mattress and box spring were disgustingly filthy under the mattress pad. Will never stay here with these conditions.

This place is good for being close to the beach.We waited 4hours for my toilet to work after asking politely twice. The bathroom is very small. No microwave in the room. The cleanness of the room was okay could be better. The room was very small only big enough for bed an a tiny table for $800.

The room looked nothing like the pictures. It was covered in sand. The bathroom light fixture half worked. The shower head was basically pulled off the wall and the tiles were all cracked with mold growing in them.

On a positive note, the air conditioner worked well and we were able to stream shows on the tv.

You get what you pay for. This place was cheap and in a good location for a 3 night stay.
Lots of sand on the floors, and 10 years of dust on some bathroom ledges. Not cleaned all that well.
Somewhat updated from the 70’s, but not the greatest work. Would I stay there again - probably not.

This Cabana Motel in Ocean City is infested with Bed Bugs. They avoid contact so as to skirt accountability. The accommodations lack and again they are INFESTED WITH BED BUGS! Neither them NOR EXPEDIA will help you get a refund for your troubles. Use Air BNB instead.

This property is very misrepresented online. It is one step up from the street and yet quite expensive. I another’s not to fall for this representation. The shower still had the used soap from the last customer. There is hardly room to walk around the bed. The electrical outlets don’t work. I can go in and in. Don’t stay here!!

This place is a dump. Unclean and very sketchy. Doors were unable to be closed and locked, toilet leaked. Just overall a horrible experience. Management refused to refund anything or even offer a different room.

Basic motel (no food), 2 blocks off the boardwalk. It’s been around a while and it shows but it’s very clean; ac, microwave, and fridge all worked fine, lots of hot water and towels. didn’t need the wifi so can’t say about that, basic antenna tv. Great staff, smoke alarm went south, had a new one in under five minutes
For the price, in-season, definitely worth it.

Mostly it was what we needed until the AC died and they could neither fix it or provide us another room. So we had to leave early

Great area. Very close to everything. The only downside is me and my partner went home with bed bugs bite. When we first came in, the room was not very cleaned. The floor was sandy and seems like it was not even cleaned or swept at all.

The room was in rough condition. Missing shower/tub lever. It was set for shower so we were okay but looked really bad. Missing door knobs on bathroom vanity. Bathroom faucet handles need replacement, they were the clear plastic ones and you can see the dirt or mold within. No hangers, hooks or towel rack to hang dry anything. Suspended ceilings and a number of them were

My stay here was wonderful. Great location, free parking, close to the beach, and fresh hot coffee all day in the lobby. But the best part of it was our gracious host, Anil, he was amazing! He really went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and happy throughout our entire vacation. Very polite and accommodating to our every need, and did it with a smile at all times. I will definitely come back here just because of him and his positive attitude! He truly understands what it means to be in the hospitality industry and make his guests feel welcome, happy and comfortable. Thanks Anil for all you did to make our stay a pleasant one.

I feel like there should be at least coffee pots in room. More towels better maid service. The clientele should be screened. Our last night there was a irate gentleman there. I just feel there should be an age limit to get a room. A lot of teenage to mid twenty year olds there.
