At 7:15 am when I went to open the window someone from the maid service was peeping inside my window invading my privacy. I felt violated and made me believe that at that time with no clean-up equipment or identification, something strange was going on. Never again.

Was very disappointed with room. They put us in a room facing the wall with no view. The hotel was pretty empty so I'm still not sure why I was given the room I was given. Also, the refrigerator was unplugged as well as the lights. It took nearly 24 hrs for the fridge to cool off. The bed and floor also appeared to have sand on it which made me concerned that the bedding wasn't cleaned prior to arrival.

Dog friendly, but not dog smelly, clean. Priced well. Right near the beach. In walking distent to restaurants and Ice Cream. This property had some pretty bad reviews. But we believe they were lies from the old management and issues that they made up. We had a great stay.

I would never stay at this property again...$300 for a very basic room with only one light, lumpy beds, no hair dryer or shampoo or extra chair. Very disappointing.

Good for a motel I suppose, was extremely clean but smelled like bleach. The motel only had hot water one of the three times I showered. The rest of the time it was lukewarm. The bath towels provided were ripped. Location wise it’s ideal but the railing height can’t be up to code and are a safety hazard if you have children. Parking is always available. Ice machine and grills on site.

Perfect beach motel

The motel is a cute little place close to the beach that is dog friendly. Pool was nice, rooms were clean but could use some updates. Front desk was super helpful and friendly. We had a partial view of ocean from our room. Will definitely stay again.

When arriving at the property, we were changed a cash only pet fee per pet. This was in addition to the pet fee included in the rooms fees. In the middle of our stay it was claimed that our dog caused damage to the already damaged room. We were told that if we didnt hand over cash immediatley then we would be evicted. The property manage leslie had the police come to our room twice, in addition to charged my credit card $625.00 dollars, without my permission, for a comforter and curtains that were already damaged and from the 70s. This was supposed to be a 4 generation trip filled with good memories We ended up leaving early due to the hostile and uncomfortable environment. Please, dont give this motel your money.
