The property was nothing like the pictures posted on expedia. The room was nothing like the pictures posted on expefia either. I actually would like ask for a refund. I would never stay there if I know the room was in such poor condition. It's a terrible case of false advertising or bate and switch. Please issue a refund ASAP.

Liked: Amenities
Deck chairs outside every room were nice to watch the ocean. We weren’t too keen on all the wet clothes and towels hanging all over the railings to dry. Ice machine area looked like something from a horror movie, made you wonder if the ice was safe to consume. Smoke detector dangling from a wire in the room. All that aside it was a good stay

Nice pool & location

Great location, walking distance to the pier. Beach access across the street, two minute walk. Motel is run down and old. Furniture is nice but that’s about it. Towels were poor and thin. Pool is big and has a great view of the beach including a Jacuzzi. Has a nice outdoor bar and restaurant. Food at the restaurant was delicious. They have live music Friday evenings during the summer. Bed was not comfortable. They only provide a thin sheet as your comforter. Expensive for the quality of the motel, but you can’t beat the location or the pool compared to other hotels in the area. Free breakfast buffet was absolutely disgusting I would not consider that a breakfast. Plenty of parking available. Overall, I would stay here again only for the location, Pool and Bar. Booked a double queen with pool and ocean front view.

The one thing was the staff was very kind and helpful. The hotel is strongly in need of removing carpets and remodeling rooms. The weather stripping on the door was gone and allowed small insects to come inside. The outside sitting area in front of my window smelled so badly of cigarettes and smoking that I had to cover my nose with my towel as I walked by. Also a police officer was on site telling visitors that the pool was closed and to leave the area which seemed very suspicious. I use to enjoy coming here, but will now never return unless a lot of changes are made.

The room wasn't cleaned very well, the AC needs servicing, and the queen-size bed is really a full-size bed. However, the pool is a very nice touch for the kids. It has a restaurant, so you don't have to worry about getting out. The observation deck was closed, so that sucked. Breakfast food was so good. The kitchen was full of grannies who knew how to cook.
