Overall, the hotel was fine! The shower was a bit gross, because it looked moldy around the edges. My guess is it’s just old and not actually moldy but grossed me out. The bathroom was also very small and you couldn’t even open the door all the way cause it would hit the toilet. The owner or maybe manager, was super friendly and kind. He let us check in hours early, which was amazing with two young kids. This made everything else tolerable for us. The beds were clean and fairly comfy. The only complaint I have is more pillows in the room would have been nice! Overall I was satisfied with out stay and it was great to be that close to the ocean!!

LOCATION IS 5...BUT... its a 2 star at best. Dirty floors and walls.If you dont smoke this is a terrible place to stay. We were unable to enjoy the private porch and the front porch due to excessive smoking. I have asthma and have quit smoking 15 years ago so this was a definate discust to me. The smoke rolls up from the entry porch up to ur private area. Also our ajoining neighbors smoked all day so its all u smell. Just couldnt breath or enjoy it at all. Staff were friendly and did get us extra pillows and towels right away. Needs a firm cleaning as there was old food in floors.
