The only thing this Inn has going for it is location. The innkeepers are tired and worn out. Promised icea tea and homemake cookies for afternoon snack. Didn't happen. A cold drink would have been nice. Algae-type mess floating in jacuzzi tub after filling it. While eating breakfast outside in the morning, another couple (who were delightful) were served coffee at breakfast. When I asked for a cup I was told to get it myself in the house. We paid over $300 for an oceanfront room and that is all we got. Nothing more, nothing special. Do not waste your money at this Inn. These owners need to sell to more enthusiastic people. This could be an awesome B&B.

Just returned from our 3rd vacation in as many years at the Inn on the Ocean B&B in Ocean City, MD. My wife and I stayed for 3 days with another couple. We all just LOVE this place. The Inn is clean, comfy with nicely appointed rooms. The breakfasts are positively outstanding and the location is the ultimate. You can spend each morning watching the joggers/bikers on the beach, the dolphins jumping along the shoreline and the beautiful sunrise - all from a rocking chair on the front porch. It just doesn't get much better. In the afternoon you can collect rays from the sun porch or use the beach chairs and towels provided for you and lay on the beach. The Innkeepres, Charlie and Vickie, are lovely hosts. We are soooo glad we found this gem 3 yrs ago. We plan on returning here for many, many years to come !!! Oh, and don't forget to go to Fresco's if you want a memorable dinner in a beautiful setting.

My wife and I and are best friends have stayed here for 3yrs now and would not think of going anywhere else. The food and service is excellent. the location is wonderfull, everything you could want is right here for you, beach chairs, towels, bikes etc.. what else could you ask for. Looking forward to next year, John and Joyce, Tony and Marcia

We stayed in the oceana room, which is undoubtedly the best room in the inn because of the wonderful wonderful balcony. The view is breathtaking!
Highlights of the trip:
1. balcony right above the boardwalk with an un-obstructive view of the ocean; the sunrise is spectacular!
2. bike ride on boardwalk in early morning around sunrise (the inn provides bikes); I imagine jogging would be equally nice;
3. quiet beach in the moonlight.

Now more details about the inn:

The location is good, but not superb. Boardwalk gets nicer after about 15th street, where there is less neon light, less foot traffic and the buildings look a little nicer. The inn is at 10th street, right in the midst of the clouds of neon lights which I hate. The balcony is great, but with the heavy foot traffic on the boardwalk, it also makes it less pleasant when it comes time to sleep. The oceana room is very spacious with pretty nice decoration. There are two extra roller beds in the closets in the bathroom. There is an old AC unit across the stairs on the second floor that makes a lot of noise which kept me awake almost the entire night on the first night. But then I realized there was a door above the stairs, once I closed it, the AC noise was no longer a problem.

The breakfast was bad. There's actually plenty of room on the veranda to provide more private seating, but for some reason the inn keeper only lays out two big tables so you'll have to sit with other guests. The service is extremely slow. When they say breakfast is from 9 to 10 they actually literally meant that breakfast would last from 9 to 10. We found it pretty annoying to sit there with strangers staring at empty dishes. The food is terribly unhealthy. All juice comes from boxes/bottles instead of freshly squeezed. One day we had some scrambled eggs soaked with some kind of cream, bacon, and some very unremarkable quiche. Everything was cooked with so much oil. Besides being unhealthy, they didn't even taste good. The only thing I liked a little bit was the lemon bread, which, again I suspect was not prepared with healthy ingredients. As a B&B place, this is quite disappointing. I've seen better continental breakfast than this.
