We had higher expectations based on the reviews. We were checked in by a virtual assistant and my room card envelope said room 109 and we tried getting in that room for like 20 minutes and we couldn’t and there was no real staff available at around 10 PM. Then I got a text message that said my room was 121. It was very frustrating. Ok stay overall.

Great Place to stay.

Our stay was really good. The motor lodge is very well kept and you can tell it has been updated. They have done an amazing job with the updates too, but what shines most about this place is the service. The staff is amazing. So friendly and so accommodating. They go out of there way to say hello and carry on conversations with you, showing that they really care. I don’t have anything negative at all to say and the only reason for a good rating and not excellent is that the beach access is so great and convenient, however it is a struggle to climb over the dunes. I wish they had a walkway but I do understand that they are doing the best they can with Mother Nature. My rating is only for travelers that may have a hard time with mobility. Other than that I highly recommend this place. Thank you to Linda for her hospitality and all the staff.
