The rooms were clean and had direct access to the beach. I like coming during the off season for the quiet. The staff was extremely helpful in helping my daughter and I add a night to our stay.
This is a nice motel. It's not fancy, but is comfortable, clean, and is oceanfront. The kitchenette enabled us to not have to eat out every meal. It has a nice indoor pool and hot tub for the winter.The staff were great.
Excellent location and ocean view. Property is very dated. Bathroom door wouldn't close and fan very loud. Harsh lighting. Television also dated. No phone in room. If you don't mind these things, it was otherwise comfortable and worth the cost.
Wonderful hotel…except there is no elevator! King bed room is extra large…not much decor..nothing fancy…it is clean!
Top floor has nice views of the ocean but those stairs…
There is a luggage elevator.
