Great value

The room is great for the price! Ac was cold sheets were clean. Only problems I had was I stepped in glass that was in the carpet and the bed felt like it was on a slant. For one or two days and being right by the beach I have no complaints.

Room was very small, no place to hang clothing or wet bathing suits. Just small details could have made a big difference in our stay. They had an ice station but no ice bucket. Staff was very friendly & brought us extra towels when needed. I gave it just an ok.

The room was very small. Bathroom was so small we couldn’t sit on the toilet correctly. Had to sit sideways on it. It was very close to the wall in front of it. We didn’t care much because we weren’t going to be in the room a lot. But wouldn’t want to be there a long time. We spent 3 nights.

Well, if your looking for " ECONOMY", and just somewhere to lay your head, then this is absolutely the place for you. Our ROOM was literally just a room and a tiny bathroom that has been updated at some point. Good luck using the toilet for you sit down needs. You knees will be AGAINST the wall. No proper exhaust vent in the bathroom, and two lights that worked occasionally. No hair dryer,no phone,no clock, and spotty free wi-fi. Ready for my favorite? The HOT WATER for the shower takes about 5-10 minutes to get to the room. Why? Because the circulation pump is on the other side oc the building. WHAT??? Oh, and lets not forgot about the $10/day parking fee on the next block away from the hotel,AND the fees & taxes. For the life of me i cant understand why when i asked the agent at the desk (Ava?) if we could switch to a different room,she said they were 'sold out' ,but the 'VACANCY' light on the road sign stayed illuminated. One other thing, the bathroom window was broken ( security latch, bottom handle). When i mentioned it,they said "oh yeah we know about it, but cant afford to fix windows". We survived it,as it wasn't completely awful,but for cost of nearly $800,and the tiny,tiny size of the room,we felt like they price gouged for the weekend music festival we attended.

It is a motel in an ocean town. Our room was small and clean, albeit the bedding was outdated. As someone who takes lava hot showers, it really sucked to wait over 20 minutes of running water to get to lukewarm. It was a festival weekend so paid premium to not be able to get an appropriate shower.

The property was good. The stay was good but had to call to get towels and wash rags for the day. But from Expedia setting up my stay,I had to pay for my visit when I got there And had to pay 10 dollar a day extra to park a day .. that wasn't cool at all. If I paid directly to hotel , i wouldn't had to pay that extra $70.
