Over all the our experience was good. The hotel need a little update it is a little rundown and the breakfast food need improvement the staff was amazing and super friendly the beds were a little to firm for my taste but it wasn’t too bad
I liked the fact that you have a lot of places to eat close by
I was very hard to drive into the property because of strange street arrangement outside. I drove around to block many times

Typical beach town motel
This motel is a pretty typical beach town motel. I would say it’s not as pictured, the property is pretty run down. The pool wasn’t very well kept and the hot tub was closed. The service and breakfast was decent.
The staff at the hotel was very friendly and nice. Our room was clean and comfortable. We did notice noise from the people above us and others going in and out of rooms at night, but it did not bother our children’s sleep. Parking was a little tough because the hotel was full, and the only spaces left were for compact cars. We squeezed in the space, but we think one guest had to crawl out the back of their car. Overall it was very comfortable, especially for the price. We would stay here again.
The front desk gentleman at the lobby was very helpful, very nice when we check in , we need it help with the roll in bed and the tv , he help us right away . We appreciate it alot
My family and I enjoyed our stay. The staff were friendly and nice. And the breakfast had a good selection to choose from waffles, bagels, & cooked potatoes. Have to come back next time to go in the heated pool and hot tub
Nice property despite the slightly inconvenient entrance/exit. Main complaint is the annoying wifi—we had to constantly reconnect and it was down one afternoon. Other complaint that they have no control over is the amount of homeless people in the area. Don’t go to the McDonald’s after dark!!! No drive-through and a serious case of homeless folks all around all the doors.
