Ocean City is located on the northeast coast of Maryland, approximately 120 miles west of the state capital at Annapolis. Due to its temperate climate and sprawling white-sand beaches, the city has been a renowned resort destination since the late 19th century, when it was known as "The Ladies Resort to the Ocean." A wooden boardwalk was originally constructed in 1902. Destroyed by a storm in 1962, the boardwalk was rebuilt to its present day form, and remains one of Maryland's most popular tourist destinations.
The seasonal outdoor pool at the Comfort Inn on Atlantic Avenue looks right out onto the city's famous boardwalk. Rooms range from double-queen-bed to single-king-bed efficiency suites with kitchen facilities. Many rooms at the establishment offer walk-out patios that provide panoramic views of the Ocean City beach and Atlantic Ocean. An indoor heated pool is also available for guests. The hotel is also minutes away from the Ocean Downs Racetrack and Jolly Roger Amusement Park.
