    great walks to the boardwalk and local eateries nearby

    My stay here was enjoyable thanks to being just a few steps from the boardwalk and a short walk to fantastic restaurants, which made my weekend city strolls memorable and effortless. the staff were friendly and made check-in a breeze, enhancing my time at the hotel.

    great location
    clean swimming pool
    kitchenette
    poor internet

    We loved our stay! The location was perfect, just a couple of blocks from the beach and boardwalk. Plus, having a kitchenette was a lifesaver with my kids and fiancé. The clean swimming pool was a hit with everyone.

    In my children's opinion, having better Wi-Fi would be awesome.

    kitchenette utensils
    outdoor pool
    beach tags
    uncomfortable beds

    The kitchenette provided some useful utensils, making snacks a breeze, while the complimentary beach tags were a nice perk for enjoying the local coastline. The seasonal outdoor pool offered a refreshing escape when the beach got too crowded.

    The beds, particularly the queen size, left a lot to be desired, especially for two plus-size adults who found it cramped. The WiFi connection was spotty, far from ideal in today's tech-driven world, while the fridge needed attention with a broken hinge and a generally small size. Lastly, the cleanliness left something to be desired, as I noticed a half gallon of milk left in the fridge and traces of sand on the floor.

    designated smoking area

    i really enjoyed my stay at sifting sands motel. the location was perfect, just a short walk from the beach and boardwalk. they have a nice designated vaping/smoking area which keeps things tidy. the staff was super helpful, even allowing us to stay parked after checkout. plus, i loved being able to relax by the seasonal pool!

    the room could use some updates, but overall, it was a good experience.

    The room was clean and had a well-functioning kitchenette, which made our stay very convenient. The location was excellent, just a short walk to the boardwalk and beach. Although the room itself could use some updating, the friendly service and quiet atmosphere made for a pleasant experience. The heated pool was an added bonus, perfect for a relaxing evening.

    clean room
    great location
    handy amenities
    cramped room
    small couch

    The room was cozy, but definitely on the smaller side. Had a queen bed tucked into a nook. A couch and small dining table. It felt a bit cramped for one person, but it worked out fine. The fridge and coffee pot were useful, and the AC helped with noise at night. Basic but clean and had everything I needed for my stay. The location was perfect for grabbing food and hitting the beach!

    It was just a good match for a two-day stay in Ocean City with best value. The people were friendly, which made us feel welcome. If you're okay with outdated features, you might still find it satisfactory.

    friendly staff

    Family vacation that kinda hit all the right notes!

    We booked this place at the last minute, and it turned out to be a win! Super clean and the front desk lady, Phyllis, was a gem. The room had a sofa, kitchenette AND a coffee pot, which was huge!

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but you get what you pay for and it was still acceptable.

    Nice location close to the beach, and rooms are clean. The shower rack was partially broken, which was a hassle.

    We had a wonderful honeymoon stay here, much better than our last visit to another motel in ocean city. The room was perfectly clean, and the kitchenette was a great addition for quick meals. The location can't be beat-just a short walk to the beach and provided free beach tags too.
