O.K.

Retro motel. Loved the check-in clerk. He was very friendly and professional. Room was O.K. It's a motel. Not expecting much. Cute fridge and toaster oven and artwork. Bed was more of a big cot. Not comfortable. Floor was very stained. I think it was terrazo. We kept our shoes on. Bathroom rusty. I know it went through storms, so trying not to judge too much. Had to leave early due to an injury, but kinda glad to get back home and avoid another night in the cot anyway. Did not get a chance to use the pool or visit the beach, so can't comment on that.
