We arrived at about 3pm and was told the room would not be available until 4pm. We went to get a bite to eat and came back. The room was hot and the AC was npt working. I put a call into regarding their msg service and was told the AC tech wasn't a available but someone would come and check it. The temp in the room was 80 degrees, because the blower on the AC unit wasn't blowing at all. We decided to tey the pool while waiting. The pool was murky and and need of repair. When the hotel representative finally showed up we were given the option to either stay with no AC or vacate the room. No other choices. It took us nearly an hour to find another place to stay, and the entire time I being bombarded with texts wanting to know if we're out. The pics for the rooms are staged and filtered the rooms in person are dirty and worn. The patio furniture in the photos is non existent. What staff you will see are rude and completely unhelpful. Lesson learned.

Cute motel

Very cute motel located a short walk from the beach. Upon arrival noticed hair in shower but house keeping were there and quickly remedied the situation. The young lady was kind and professional and let us know about other services available, such as extra towels or bedding. It would be nice to have more than one trash can available as there was only one in the bathroom and at the coffee bar, nowhere to put your trash. Great balcony area which was very much used even with tropical storm rolling in.

Everything was clean, and staff communication was excellent. Location is perfect, a block away from the boardwalk. Parking is a little tight, but everything else was great! Would recommend!

It was a great stay. Clean but small rooms. Dog friendly. The biggest complaint was the pool was gross to the point where the water was greenish and not clear.

Sweet newly renovated two-story motel. Has a pool, lots of lounge chairs and one parking spot per room. Self check-in, no front desk, but quick response via text for everything. Great concept. Walk to everything.

If you are looking for relaxing, don't stay here. The room next to us had 12 tenants and kept us up all night until after 2:00 am. We could smell weed in our room as well. The worst part was I called the front desk""" and she said ma'm its Caroline Beach in the summer. Pitiful comment since we spent over $250.00 to stay! No resolve either just deal with it kind of attitude. When I woke up for work I made sure the neighbors that kept us up all night were up and ready to start their day as well!
