Top Ripley's Believe It or Not! Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn Ocean City Boardwalk

10/10 Excellent

"N/A"

The Americana Hotel

8/10 Good

"The only problem I had with this stay was Ac was not that cold but other than that everything was fine."

Grand Hotel Ocean City Oceanfront

8/10 Good

"We found our room to be surprisingly spacious, very clean, and comfortable; however, the kitchenette/bathroom areas were a bit dated. The property location was excellent and there were restaurants and a pool within the property. The common areas inside the hotel and the outdoor space at the front of the hotel were adequate, but guests were somewhat disrespectful, leaving their trash, not replacing chairs after their use, etc... The staff was pleasant enough when checking-in and helpful when we had a question but were ignoring simple tasks like straightening up the common areas when time allowed. Although this was a little off-putting, we would return if the opportunity presented itself."

Park Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice place had great access to the boardwalk and other stores all in walking distance. Staff was nice, was a very good trip to OC. Yes I would stay here again in the future."

Hotel Monte Carlo Ocean City

10/10 Excellent

"Check in was great. The front desk person was awesome. They were helpful and we're able to answer all our questions. The room was small but comfortable. Only suggestion would be to move the TV to a swivel mount but other than that no issues at all."

Cambria Hotel Ocean City - Bayfront

10/10 Excellent

"There was no mention of a $250 deposit. It would have been nice for the amount to have been disclosed in the booking."

Beach Bum Inn

8/10 Good

"Just wanted a place to stay to see corvettes and it worked perfectly at good price if w a new knee didn’t have to walk up 2 flights of stairs w luggage, It would have been a great stay. I had asked for a ground floor room"

Sea Breeze Inn

8/10 Good

"If your going for a room to sleep in, its perfect. Not new or upgraded but served its purpose for a place to rest your head. Front desk was very friendly, close to the inlet and a goof price"
