Motel overall review

Overall the stay was fine for my wife and myself for one night. It’s actually a motel. The location is good and close to the beach at various access points. The room was comfortable, beds are good, A/C is good, there’s a TV, microwave and refrigerator. That’s good for a motel. The bathroom is expectedly small, being a motel, so that’s ok, but it could use a bit of upgrade and more lighting for sure. I think the whole motel including the outside appearance needs an uplift. The people/family running the hotel were very friendly and kind and welcoming.

RUN…… DONT book this hotel

The room was disgusting. Dead bugs on the ceiling in several places. The beds had 1 sheet and a thin blanket. The air conditioner was full of mold. Overall the room was gross and wayyyyyyy over priced. We had to listen to the people in the next room all night. We left after one night and checked out as we could not bear to stay another night.

The one bed hadn’t been changed. There was someone else’s hair and an old blood stain on the sheet. It was found when we went to go to bed like 10pm. They gave us new sheets and just said sorry. When we asked what they we’re going to do about it, the manager said nothing we said sorry. The second night kids were running on top of us til 1am and we’re back at it at 6am. Nothing done about that either.
