Room was so old and in modern. Although I was in a non smoking room, smokers on the balcony made the whole air stink. The only perk was proximity to the beach.

The motel was cheaper than most other places that I had checked. There was no cold water in the bathroom sink but realized it had been turned off under the sink. Had issues with the shower but maintenance did come and fix things. Overall, good for the price.
