I just joined a colleague at this hotel after his selection, but it was a great experience, and this was a first-time, three night stay. First, for a budget hotel, they have an acceptable gym with one ea. tread, elliptical, bike plus a multi-station; they also advertise (though I didn't get to it) an agreement with a local regular gym should you be interested. Well located for fast foods, and perfect for quick access to NAS Pax Gate 2. Rooms were large, internet worked, breakfast was pretty huge...

I usually stay in Solomons but when I found this hotel I will never go back to Solomons. What a beautiful location. All the rooms are water front and super clean. The restaurant bar next door offers a good variety of choices that are reasonably priced. I had the crab cake, it was the best I have ever had. I was worried about the distance but it actually took me less time to get to the hotel than it usually does Solomons. I understand why the call it Maryland's best kept secret. Service was...
