The beds were super comfy, but sadly, the sheets had pills on them, and the shower pressure was pathetic. The staff members were amazing and kind, and the price was very affordable, so I would book again despite these two faults.

Front desk staff was pleasant. Breakfast was decent. The room was filthy. Dirty footprints all over bathroom floor, globs of soap in the sink drain, makeup smeared on light switch, MANY hairs on bed sheets, mattress cover filthy and stained, trash on floor, sticky spots on carpet, etc. This hotel is looking very worn outside the room as well, and it’s not even that old. My stay here years ago was great, but unfortunately after this stay, I won’t be back.

It’s just OK.

For the price, it was just OK. Close to the beach. The property has been renovated however the bathrooms are a bit crusty, the shower handles had build up, and the corners of the bathroom floors were dirty with hair, powder, etc. Though the rooms were recently renovated, there was a very strong musty smell in the room. VERY strong. I woke up with a runny nose. There was a constant rattling/windy noise in the room, as if the window did not properly fit in the window sill or needed repair, etc. Additionally, the complimentary breakfast was very lacking. They were completely out of silverware and everything was just very meh. Needless to say, we grabbed a prepackaged yogurt and left. While eating, the overwhelming smell of air freshener downstairs permeated the air which you notice upon checkin as well (it’s as if they’re trying to cover up the musty smell). Overall, it was just OK.

The hotel was nice, don’t get me wrong. Right by the beach and cute little place. Our room just didn’t feel clean. There was a wet spot by the window the whole time also someone’s half drank sprite was in the fridge.. it wasn’t a terrible stay just mildly questionable.

Everything was great. Just some things I didn't like was the swimming pool is very small and only is 4.5 feet deep. With teenagers that is like a kiddie pool. Elevators are slow, hot and take too lonĝ to open once stopped. Breakfast was ok.But the motel was clean, staff friendly and walking distance to beach.

We only stayed for one night but absolutely LOVED this location! We came for the beach and it was so close! There was also a few restaurants very close that had delicious food. Staff was so wonderful upon check in and friendly every time we saw them! Room was bigger than expected and had everything we needed. We only stayed for one night but it was clean and comfortable for that one night.
