Surprisingly not as bad as I thought it might be!
The motel is older, and definitely "no-frills" but the rooms are very large and relatively affordable. Though decor is dated, room/bathroom/sheets were all very clean. I would consider it a good "crash-pad" for those focused on other activities and just need a spot for the night.

The owner was really helpful and accommodating to an early check in. Rooms were clean. The building is old but overall it was great at the price point.

Need to work on (upgrade) this property.
The picture in the add is deceiving It may have looked like that when it was first built. The room was tidy but dingy. The bed linens were clean but mismatched. The toilet wobbled and the toilet seat was worn. The shower pan was filthy. The baseboards and caulking around the sink looks like it was applied by someone inexperienced. I didn’t/wouldn’t use the kitchen area. It just did not not look sanitary. There was an old sponge on the back of the sink and the coffeemaker was stained. The place did not look like it had been upgraded since the 1950’s. I would not stay here again.

Really nice location, walking distance to a public beach only about 2000 yards! I remember staying here 30 years ago. Great memories.
