Walking up the stairs to your room just screams for attention. Outside our room we have wires hanging from the soffit with wire nuts on the end. The walls need another coat of paint because you can see where the contractor wrote (full kitchen and an arrow sign). The mini fridge is cute but not useful. You are pretty much getting a hotel room. The biggest issue with this place and the nail in the coffin for us never to return is the non-existing parking. We drove around for an 1 hour and had to park 3 blocks away. Also turn the hot water on in the shower and go for a walk. It takes forever to heat up.

Pros: - The location of the Inn is wonderful with a less than 2 minute walk to the beach and boardwalk. - The Inn provided us with parking and beach tags. - The Inn and rooms are very well maintained and clean. - We had our own private bath, TV, and refrigerator. - Restaurants are located within a 5-15 minute walk depending on what you feel like eating. - On the day of checkout, we were allowed to keep our parking spots and beach badges for the duration of the day until we left. And there are even outside showers, you could use to clean up before sadly bidding adieu to Ocean City. Cons: - For the small room we had, the rate we paid seemed steep. But given that it is peak tourist season, it seemed to be the going rate at the other smaller motels in the area as well. - They accept check or cash only and a 50% deposit by check prior to arrival. - It's been a long time since I wrote out a check for anything, but I gladly obliged and mailed the check. Unfortunately, I made the check out to "Osborne's Inn" (which would be the obvious choice) and once we arrived, I was told the check needed to be made out to Peggy Ann Osborne. I found it strange they could not cash a check made out to the Inn. In any rate, we had to hunt down a bank and withdraw the funds to cover the deposit.

Our first visit to Inn the Gardens was outstanding! My husband and I plus our adorable bunny,…read moreBuddy Love, were guests at the Inn. Jennifer, the Innkeeper, was so welcoming and she had never had a bunny stay but I must say she warmed up to him right away. Our bunny frolicked to his hearts content in the yard attached to our apartment. Our bed was fantastic...we slept better than ever. Then we had an awesome breakfast and, of course, we ate too much! We ended up staying an extra night and might have stayed another night but the Inn was booked for the weekend. Too bad for us. We are planning on a week stay this fall. To sum up, we consider this our home away from home! (As does Buddy Love!)

The room had a musty smell upon arrival. Later that day my clothing was very damp. I noticed an…read moreunplugged dehumidifier in the corner of the room and when plugged in, it did not work. I notified the front desk and was told the reason the room was damp was due to the outdoor humidly being so high along with the fact that I was by the ocean. That is completely wrong. The AC is made to condition the air coming in and keep any moisture out. The owner was very nice and arranged an HVAC guy to figure out the problem. He removed the filter from the AC unit and it was so filthy, he had to clean it. He confirmed the dehumidifier wasn't working and went to get a working one. I had to dump the container holding the water 4 times in the 3 nights spent there. Before leaving I spoke to the owner and she apologized but said the problem was due to the high humidity. I wasn't about to argue with her. I did ask if all the rooms were having the same problem and I was told only 2 rooms were having the problem but mine was the worst. I believe this room should not have been available until everything was repaired. I have never stayed anyplace that required a dehumidifier to be running along with a guest having to keep dumping the water. Since returning home, I experienced respiratory symptoms which leads me to believe the moisture from the AC may have caused mold to form behind the wall. I had to see my dr after not getting better after 1 week and I'm now being treated for a bacterial infection which, according to my dr may be from an allergic reaction to mold. I will never stay at this place again and anybody else should think twice above doing so.

Not as it appears; go elsewhere. Booked 5 days/4 nights for…read morea 2 bedroom/2 bath efficiency Floor was sandy Sheets were old, thin, dingy and had pilling (tiny fuzz balls) all over them. (see pics) and top sheet was too small for the queen bed. Towels, also old, thin, strings hanging and grey/dingy. (see pics) Master bedroom-no dresser rather plywood cubbies to store clothes. Nightstands were flakeboard with screws sticking out and gouges in them. (see pics) Had a make-shift closet "box" but it smelled bad inside, did not use it as I did not want my clothes to pick up that smell. Master bath shower-paint peeling, no exhaust fan/vent and no light in shower stall, so dark with shower curtain closed, you could not see. Two separate faucets in shower so you had to fiddle with both hot & cold-water faucets to get warm water. (see pics) Kitchen area - TV hung high on the wall with cable box freely hanging down in the air (wires and all...is that even safe?) Gouges & dings in walls in areas. (see pics) Second bathroom - no exhaust fan/vent. It had a small awning window, but the hinges were broken so it would not stay open Second bedroom with bunk beds - had an old, stained chair in it (see pics). Next to the top bunk was a glass block window (doesn't open, just let's light in). This room is next to an alley where there is a garage with a motion activated security light installed. Every time a bird, car, person, leaf or piece of trash moved in front of the security light it went on. This light shines right into this bedroom through those cubes. It's on and off all night long. They should have curtains to use on these glass blocks at night. Pool - there is a small pool, but the water in it was cloudy each day. Never saw it a nice clean blue. A/C provided by separate units in each room, the a/c went out early evening (along with electric to refrigerator) the day before we were to leave. My husband missed out on spending time with us because he was dealing with the hotel and the no a/c situation. It came back on but then stopped again late that evening. No one in the office to assist, I left a voice message as well, no one called me back. It was during a heat wave, too hot to stay without the a/c. Packed up at midnight and left for a long drive home. Overall - this was not a cheap hotel. From the outside it looks very nice but looks are deceiving. It needs a lot of work inside. Photos online show one specific part of a room that is good, the rest of the room is not, as we found out. It is overpriced and the cleaning and service is subpar, you can do much better for the price elsewhere.

This is our first time at a Bed and Breakfast- we don't want to book at a regular hotel again after being in a place like this. The reason for the four stars is that when we got to our room we were told upon arrival that the AC was broken in our room. I get it that things happen, but it would have been helpful to call us before we arrived to update us on important matters. We are simple people and we just dealt with it, but the weather that weekend was hot and humid. The fan is also old and got noisy when we cranked it a few notches so that didn't really help us much. Everything is beautiful, but we just did not appreciate any accomodations when we were told that the AC is broken. This won't deter us from coming back. We'll give them another shot.

The only negative thing is the sometimes lack of parking if you stay in-season.

For the price (400 a night), I was expecting a little more luxury. It's across the street from a High School Warning: If you are 6 feet or taller, you might bump your head on the ceiling.

Kitchen: Fridge slides out of place(uneven ) Rooms: TV's are super small, DVD players outdated). Queen room ceiling looks like it might have had a water leak at one point in time. Window shades don't fit the windows. Can hear others walking above on balcony.
