Everything was lovely in terms of the service, location, clean room and nice relaxed motel. We loved the food at the restaurant it was next level. It was so close to walk to the main beach and we caught the tram for .50c outside the motel to Cavil Ave which was so easy. Highly recommend this place for a cheap comfortable stay.
