Eastern Shore of Virginia Vacations from US$ 313

Problem with the ladies at the front desk, they were very matter-of-fact and rude! However, the cleaning staff, were really nice and friendly! I’ve had better breakfast, but it was decent. Your coffee was really good!

The air conditioner had a hose run from it out the wall. A hole had recently been drilled to allow this. Unfortunately they didn't clean it up and I got metal shards in my foot. Furniture was a hazard as well. No air moving in the halls.

Check out time is 11:00 am. It’s posted in the lobby plain and clear. 10:20 am: someone knocked on the door but I thought it was a different room in the hall so I did not say anything. The door gets opened; luckily my indoor slide lock stopped it. Me: who is it??? Unknown person on other side of door:.. I knocked. Were you sleeping? Me: No? (I was so confused I didn’t know how to answer or who was even talking to me). Mystery person: what time do you check out? Me; 11???? Door shuts. What the hell?????? I tell the story to front desk upon check out. Reception: oh. It was probably housekeeping. Me: ok but checkout time is 11. Reception: Sorry This was such a crazy thing, especially the fact there’s only one checkout time; visibly posted in the lobby.

The suite was quite large and makes great use of the space. The half wall between the living area and the beds made it almost seem like a small apartment. While the bathroom overall was great, it has a couple of quirks that detract from it. Because there is a full-length mirror on the inside of the bathroom door, the only place to hang a towel is the single hook right at the shower curtain rod. That's fine while you are using the shower, but to actually hang the towels when not in use, you have to use hooks outside of the bathroom. That's odd and inconvenient. The sink stopper was not attached to the pull up mechanism so shaving meant turning water on and off. The beds were OK. Not too hard or soft, but they had noticeable troughs in the middle. The balcony wrapped around the corner so we could catch a glimpse of the ocean and get a great view of the very attractive town. There was clear breakfast under-staffing on Thursday, to the point that there were no cups, and new ones came out two at a time. The limited staff didn't understand what to prioritize and spent time refilling items which were still half full while empty items lingered. It was much better on Friday, and having both regular and cheesy scrambled eggs was nice, but this breakfast was nothing like the usual Residence Inn. The location right on the boardwalk could not be better, and the hotel is overall really attractive. Yes, it's Bethany, not Ocean City, but this hotel really is overpriced.

The parking is SUPER tight and the beds are extremely firm. Not something I like so made the stay a little uncomfortable for me. The location and the staff were amazing. My kids loved the ice cream social they had! The condo was clean and fully stocked with everything we needed to cook! I would definitely consider staying here again if the beds were not so uncomfortable for me.
