Who travels without a camera? Not Tripadvisor members. My family and I were in Crisfield (on the eastern shore) for a funeral. We searched motels in the area before leaving the Grand Strand. Only 3 motels in this quaint town. The Paddlewheel is now known as The Captain Tyler. It's a 2 story motel without elevators, breakfast, or a pool. It is however clean. Comfy beds. Room 10 upstairs (on the end) had a flatscreen, mini frig, microwave, and an ole crushed velvet couch. The ac/heat unit was like a window unit in the wall and it blew constantly. The office which also serves as a place to purchase Tangier cruise tixs is NOT manned 24/7. The downstairs King rooms are upgraded with pillowtop mattresses and flatscreens. Can't wait for the doubles to be upgraded!

**TIP: ask for better towels (we got them with no problem)

My husband and I spent a weekend in Crisfield, Maryland and stayed at the Paddlewheel Motel. It was very clean and neat which I look for in a place to stay when I am traveling. The price was right and the bed was out of this world. It was also close to everything. I would recommend this Motel to anyone who is looking to vacation in Crisfield, Maryland.

We drove to Crisfield to celebrate our 21st wedding anniversary. We stopped at a hotel we saw there before it was called The Pines, We looked at a room and asked the price. The place was really run down. We decided not to stay there. We drove to the place we stayed at before which was the Somers Cove Motel and is now a Best Value Inn. This hotel was worse than the first one we looked at. There was a woman screaming from the upstairs down to her 5 year old daughter downstairs. It was a sorry situation. We only had one other hotel to try. We went to the Paddlewheel Inn. I spoke with the gentleman, he was cordial. I asked him if we could see a room, he handed me his master key and say go and find one you like. So we found a room with a king size bed. The room smelled very clean.
The bed was very clean. It was a diamond in the rough. We were so happy that we weren't going to have to drive to Princess Ann or Salisbury. There were only two negatives. There was a loveseat to sit in and it had crumbs under the cushions. The seat was stained and looked worn. The second thing was that there was no shampoo in the room. We had to go and buy our own shampoo. I would stay there again.
