Room wasn’t ready at checking time. Things were left in refrigerator and personal items in bathroom. Only old key locks for rooms and some tried to open my door at midnight. They had a key. Luckily I had the chain and doorstop on. Worst hotel through orbits I’ve ever stayed at.

This was the most disgusting place I have ever stayed! It smelled funky and the shower curtain! There was a rusty baking pan being used as a tray under the coffee maker. Some dirty stain on one of the bedspreads, the floor was nice new tile in a dark plank style but it was filthy! I took a dry towel to the floor to get sand and dirt pushed to doorway and wet a bath towel to push around to clean floor which made towel the color of coffee! It looks nothing like the pictures! I can handle old and out dated places, but lack of cleaning, and upkeep on a regular basis is not what I expected to get for $250.00 a night!!!

Didn’t stay here more than 5 mins! Dirty sheets and towels. Air conditioner leaked and had a tray to catch the water that slowed dripped down the wall by the electrical outlet. Oh and there was a dead cockroach on the bathroom floor. Absolutely gross!!

The restroom had a lot of hair in it, very long hairs that wouldn't be hard to miss. The carpet wasn't clean either, I drop an unopened brevege on the ground and when I picked it up; there were many hairs on it from different people.

Close to the beach!

The owners were incredibly nice. Quick check-in, short walk to the beach. We really enjoyed our stay! The ONLY thing that bothered me was the carpet in the room. It was definitely very old and dirty. It didn’t impact our stay, we just wore our shoes inside.

We woke up and decided it was a beach day. Most of our visits are long so we book in advance for a longer stay. This is a perfect place for a night or two and a place to rest your head. Glad we chose it! For an older motel, its just what we needed for a day at the beach. Its a couple of short blocks from the beach (4 minute walk), its clean, very friendly staff, and everything you need for food and fun is in walking distance including a pier. Definitely will use this place again for those random overnight trips.

Got the family room with 3 queen beds. It was very clean and conveniently located. The front desk persons were very friendly. Our only problem was a sleepless night due to a broken ac unit in the room. If they can fix it, I'd definitely recommend this for an easy, economical beach stay.
