March get away

We have been staying here for 5 yrs now , the owners are friendly. I love the location, the rooms are clean, great parking. The only thing that needs attention is the towels, they are not white, they are old and grey looking, come on owners replace them. I started bringing my own towels from home. Maybe get new pillows they are flat and you only get 3.

Management personal are constantly watching what you’re doing. It’s a no smoking property yet management smoking outside and the smoke was going right into our room. My room was for up to 6 people, which we had 6 people yet charged an extra $100 for an extra person. Only given 4 towels for 6 people and 1 small garage can in the bathroom. It is close enough to walk to shops, pier and beach.

It’s fine; nothing special

Beware; this is a very old Motel. It has been upgraded very nicely; however, the walls are paper thin. So thin in fact, that my wife heard the man next door fart at 6 am! Additionally, the TV in our room did not work. Overall, not horrible, and not great. It’s fine; nothing special.

I really don’t leave any negative reviews because all I have to do is never go back again but maybe this review will make them keep up the place clean. I paid $238 total for one night and when I checked into the room it was so dusty (top of microwave , night stand and night lamp filled with layers of dust, back of hair dryer ) I’m just glad it was just my husband and I. If I had my kids I would’ve definitely left . And most nasty thing was that towels we so old that it was not even white (nasty yellow with stains) I asked for new fresh towels and all them were same condition.

Would stay again!

We really enjoyed the stay. It was not our intended place but we stayed for the first time due to few vacancies around town and we are very happy. The room and grounds were very clean and the staff was very friendly and accomodating.

Weekend getaway

It was nice. We have stayed here before and did not have any problems so decided to book again. The only thing I can suggest is replacing your towels. They were clean but no longer look white. We did not use them, instead we bought some beach towels and used them.
