We usually book this hotel every summer. The location is wonderful. You are within walking distance to restaurants, the beach, and other points of interest. However, it's far up the boardwalk, so you don't have deal with the amount of crowds that you would if you stayed closer to the inlet. The rooms are spacious and have the necessary appliances....

I've been coming to the Sahara for 20 years now. It's not the best and it's not the worst. It's a good deal for the price - clean, convenient and always accommodating. We stay in the West building because it is a little less expensive, we have breakfast most always at the Sahara Cafe and we have two pools. The... More

The ocean front location was wonderful! Really enjoyed watching the sites of the ocean and boardwalk. The only things unenjoyable were the tiny space in the bathroom and the air conditioning unit that was behind a wall partition. The bathroom area was way too cold and the wall blocked the air from circulating throughout the room. The temperature outside was... More

My wife are in Ocean City at least 2-3 times a year and always prefer to stay on the north end of the Boardwalk for the convenience without the crowds. This was our first stay at the Sahara and we'll certainly consider staying again. It's obviously an older beach motel with multiple buildings on both sides of the street, but... More

Stayed at this hotel with my fiance for the H2oi event in Ocean City. The best thing about this hotel was the location. Location was superb, right on the boardwalk at 19th st. An easy walk to many bars and restaurants, like brass balls and shenanigans. And a modest walk to everything first street has to offer. The hotel itself... More
