Residence Inn, Ocean City, MD [Master Thread]

Introduction A quick overnight stay for college baseball playoffs.Booked a studio king, given corner 1 BR suite. Hotel opened 5 days prior and still off season, so in learning mode. Check in was rough. Lobby and breakfast area are huge, free business center. Indoor pool on the 8th floor. Outdoor pool not ready yet. Breakfast was plentiful with attentive staff. Check In A little painful. New staff unsure about how to handle elite check in and did not know many of the answers. Room Room was brand spanking new. Nice neutral decor, sectional sofa with outlets and USB plugs built in. 1BR = full kitchen. Wrap around balcony was huge. LR door opened to the bay. BR door faced the ocean which is about 5 blocks across. Word of caution, knowing the area, the LR door faces a local nightclub about 10 blocks downbay. It is a VERY popular place that gets loud at night. ALL rooms have balcony doors facing this facility. Bath was large, spacious, shower only. Paul Mitchell products.LR TV was large and included good channels and netflix. Internet was strong. Bedroom was the only struggle. Obviously the mattress is brand new, but not comfortable AT ALL. Stiff, hard, unbearable. I dont think it is even a pillow top. I slept on the sofa. The TV in the BR never worked. It had a please wait logo for 30+ minutes. Refrigerator ice maker did not work. One design flaw, the under sink cabinet door opens to the left, with the handle firmly slamming onto the glass oven door. Unless these are unbreakable, I predict a rowdy crowd problem.
