Ocean 1 Hotel & Suites

This year our family decided to try a new hotel for our annual trip. Unfortunately this hotel was not ideal. Mouse droppings in the kitchenette cabinets, cockroaches, broken balcony door knobs, and peeling wallpaper. Parking is horrible. The spaces are super tight and far away from hotel. If you attempt to move your car closer to unload/repack they have rude staff members taking photos of your license plate and turn it into parking authorities. Facility was made aware of issues and nothing was done as a result. DO NOT RECOMMEND!

I stayed in the Ocean 1 condos. It is a great place to stay with bigger groups such as families or friends! The location is very convenient considering it's located on 1st street. All of the popular spots are mainly within walking distance or a short drive away. The place itself is very spacious and perfect for groups. The condo is decorated very nicely and up-to-date. I felt the place was very clean. It has four bedrooms and two bathrooms with a full kitchen along with a kitchen table to sit down and enjoy meals at. The master bedroom is very nice with a walk-in closet and another closet across from it. There's also a master bathroom. The condo has a beautiful view of the ocean and Boardwalk. There is a balcony off of one of the bedrooms and another off of the living room. The balcony is very large so your whole group can gather to see the beautiful views. I would definitely recommend staying here with your friends or family if you're planning on visiting Ocean City, MD!

I can now see why so many reviews of this hotel were complaining about parking!! First of all, there are maybe 6 or 7 parking spaces that are actually next to the hotel. The other parking lot that is for this hotel is about 2 blocks down. When we got there (there were 2 couples, so 2 vehicles), we were told that they only give one parking pass per room!! All the lady said is that we could pay for parking on the street if we wanted to! For 5 days?? No thanks!! Thankfully, we found a free parking lot for the other vehicle that was safe, but that was also 2 blocks down!! They should really specify this before arrival! We finally got up to our room. It was clean for the most part, but each day, we only got 2 towels for 4 people!! When we tried to ask for more, the front desk told us that housekeeping would come by soon with more towels. What if we don't want to wait around for housekeeping to take a shower?! We also had to keep asking for toilet paper! After we got settled into our room, there were cars parked where we were told we were not allowed to park. While we were packing up and getting ready to leave we had parked behind a car that was already parked there because we had to haul all of our luggage and bags outside (there were NO luggage carts left) one of the employees came outside and harassed us repeatedly asking us if we were moving soon!! Like hello!!!!! We are trying! Give us a minute to get our stuff since a lot of the time, our cars could not be close to us, and we had to park blocks away! Maybe if yall had enough parking spaces that are actually close to the hotel, people wouldn't have to pull their vehicles close to the door to get what they need! If you get cold at night, bring your own blanket because theirs are paper thin. I don't think that our floor was ever mopped because all of our feet kept turning black from walking on the floor. We also had to use shopping bags for garbage because they would not give us extra bags for our garbage. The only good things about this hotel were the location on the boardwalk, the view from the balcony, and the mini kitchen area.
