The room had mold near and in vent, the shower wall had a long black hair. Our beds were extremely hard and uncomfortable, the ac and heating wasn’t working properly. I’ve always brought my grandchildren here and loved it, but this last experience wasn’t pleasant.

Great place.

Just as a matter of common courtesy, it would have been nice to be informed that the ice hokey events would be the last night and day. I would have changed our reservations to a few days before or later as we were there to rest and reflect on our 60th. The front desk was the most helpful in giving us information about the restaurants in the area and any other questions we had. Thank you so much, Harold Bussell

Room 462 was not good. Had mold in the shower ceiling. Our fridge was broken and smelled terrible. The staff did respond and swap it out quickly. There was a scent of urine in the room that we couldn’t figure out or pin down. But beach front view is always great. Staff was friendly. Not sure if all rooms are as bad but I wouldn’t stay in that one again.

I was down at Salisbury University for my 50th College Graduation reunion this past weekend. As an extra special treat for the event, my wife and I decided to stay at the Carousel Hotel on Friday evening, October 10, 2025. Part of the reason for the stay was that we had stayed there 47 years earlier on October 7, 1978, and we have always regarded the Carousel as special. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case, we had a terrible experience on our Friday evening stay. Because of the reunion we checked in around 8 p.m. The check-in was easy and parking was easy. When we went to our room the temperature was 57 degrees with the air conditioning pumping away. I immediately set the thermostat to 72 but the AC continued to blow cold air. My wife and I then went to the front desk and we literally begged to be changed to another room. We were informed that all rooms were under central air and our only option was to turn off the air blower and use a heater that was in the room. My wife and I went back up and indeed there were two radiator heaters in the closet which we immediately plugged in after turning off the fan. We instantly blew a circuit and the room was plunged into darkness. We went back down and reported this new problem and we were told we should only have used one heater. I am not sure how we were to know this since there were two heaters in the room, and the room was very cold. It was a terrible experience
