The room was clean, the staff helpful. The TV would not work. The front desk came and tried. Nothing helped. Tried multiple remotes. Nope. No TV. Lights next to the beds would not work. The overhead light in room was also the switch for the bathroom. So if you wanted light in the bathroom in the middle of the night then the whole room would light up. The restaurant downstairs was delicious. Parking in a small lot across the street was extra. Or you could find parking on the street for free.

Well, I guess you get what you pay for. It was a low price and now I know why. We just needed a place to sleep before our cruise. It wasn't dirty, but it wasn't comfortable. It was like an old hotel that needs a lot of help. Tile floors, small bathroom, not so nice beds. So, i wouldn't recommend it to anyone. But if you just need a place to sleep for a few hours and don't mind very budget, then maybe it would work for you. It was about 1/2 the price of the hampton inn next door.

Don’t waste your time or money trying to stay at this roach motel. Took 1 step into the room and immediately walked out. And if you’re curious about the room anyways, make sure you pay the five dollars extra for a reservation insurance because they will not give you your money back.

It was ok for the 12h that I needed to wait for my early morning flight after a cruise. But I more than likely would not stay any longer than that. Plus was the location was great as far as the beach and food.
