Holiday Weekend Rate Robbery

I get that it was a Holiday Weekend Rate but $450 for this room was robbery. When we arrived at 12:30am we waited outside to check in for 15mins. Had to call to get someone to come to check in. The room was musty and dusty. Didn’t have the option to choose to have the room serviced in the morning but when we returned it was half cleaned like if they started to clean and changed their mind. Only one bed was made.

Really needs work - or a cop

This is a dive motel. There are seriously nasty skanky people living here in one of the upstairs rooms behind the office and smoking cigarettes on the premises seemingly non-stop (while they’re not in their room taking drugs) and discarding cigarette butts everywhere and management does nothing. Probably afraid of them. To be fair, interior room was clean and comfortable. Chase away the riff-raff and this place would be acceptable for a budget stay.

I was pleasantly surprised in that the property and the room was much better than I expected. The location is ideal as it is close to the beach and to the historic downtown area, which has so much to offer. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Overall, I was very delighted with this day

Do not recommend

I don’t know who’s giving this place alll these great reviews. Our room was not great at all. The shower door didn’t close and there was no fan to absorb the moisture it felt like sleeping in a rainforest all night. Bathroom was dirty and dingy and seem to be fruit flies in the room. Won’t stay again wasn’t the worst ever but won’t stay again

I picked this hotel based on the ratings but it was an ok hotel. The room had a small walk-in shower which was slippery, no iron, no hair dryer, and lumpy pillows. I will not be staying here again.

Black Mold - Stay Elsewhere

The weather was great. The “accessible” room, not so great. Where to start? The bathroom shower was full of black mold. The back of the front door, including around the handle and peep hole, were covered in black mold. The ceiling vent was falling down. The bed was uncomfortable and felt like it had a hole in the middle of it. The pillows felt like they were full of bits and pieces of foam. And the closet was incredibly difficult to access down a narrow side of the bed around a corner. The tv service kept cutting in and out and the sound was bad. The sink shot water everywhere no matter how little you turned the handle on. There was rust on the bottom of the chairs for the “dining area.” I get it, this is a motel. But I grew up saying at Motel 6 and never have I stayed at a property that was this dirty. We paid $240 for 1 night and it was not worth it!

It doesn't look like the motel inside and now has been renovated in 35 years. Dilapidated would be an understatement. They should update the pictures online to show the viewing public what it really looks like. $269 a night for that place is utter insanity. It wasn't even worth half the amount. The dirt strip along the sidewalk and parking lot was nothing but dirt filled with dog excrement. Pretty disgusting!! About the only favorable review is that the TV worked and the water pressure was good.
