Be warned

Be careful when staying there. There was a roach in the bathroom. The lights kept flickering as if there was going to be a blackout. The Air conditioner wasn’t cold as it should be for a summer day. They charged $5 cash to upgrade the room to a king bed and still processed it on the internet when it was booked for a full-size. Very shady business practice.

This was amazing for the price. It was literally a 4 minute walk to the beach. You cannot beat the price and I can't recommend it enough, especially for families on a budget.

Disliked: Amenities
Staff was pleasant and helpful, but not the best at listening the first time. There are a few good restaurants in walking distance, with only a short drive to convenience stores. The pool is open 24 hours, but is not lit up well. Using the pool at nighttime all to ourselves was wonderful, but being lit up better would be nice. Beware that the photos show the front office and reception building rather than a view of the rooms, and we were not aware it was a motel until arrival. The power strips and TV were also a toss up on if they were working. Recommended on a budget, and nothing that would make me advise avoiding it, but nothing special.

Beds were comfortable and clean. It looks like they are trying too fix up the place. Dresser draws were full of comforters so you couldn’t but things in them. Had a kitchenette but didn’t use it. No silverware, only a butter knife stuck to a mouse trap tape.bathroom light flickered and shower stall was dark. It was an experience with very comfortable beds.

Just don't.

Just no. run down with some very low budget "improvements", like abandoned wall ac replaced with a tiny, leaky window unit. Holes is dresser from previously bolted down tv's, high step into shower tripping hazard (and dark), Quilted blankets hung on window and all around the room (for "soundproofing" I was told, fire hazard I think) Only positive notes amazing location across from beach, reasonably clean bathrooms but funky carpet and bedcovers. Owner is a friendly guy.

Diamond in the rough

Great price, barebones accommodations, but perfectly adequate and clean with great beach access and pool. Really charming in its spare authenticity. Bring your own towels and toiletries. And cash for the owner who sells anything you need for a $1 or 2.

This was surprisingly a nice a comfortable place to spend the night. Felt like home. Nice people at the front desk. They charge only $10 for a 2pm late checkout option which is paid at the front desk (pay the night before) also if I’m not mistaken, you can upgrade your room for one with a stove for $20 a night. The kitchen upgrade option is cheaper in person than selecting on Expedia. The only issue might be availability.

Never go to this hotel, the conditions were beyond horrible. I had went there late at night to check in and it was super sketchy and felt very unsafe. The main lobby was super messy things all over the place. They first gave us a room, which was soo bad. It smelled horrible, and there was some issue with electricity the light would fully go off and so would the A.C. Then I has called them again to get us a better room and I had gone to the lobby once again. It was so unprofessional, they had handed me a wire to fix the air conditioner myself in the new room. We went to that room and again the air conditioner was not working, the room was super dirty, and the smell was unbearable. I had to leave an hour after i checked in. Never book this hotel, horrible condition, horrible service!

A poorly maintained, budget friendly motel. You get what you pay for which is the lowest possible quality experience one can reasonably offer before people stop coming entirely. Beautiful beach view though

This is a cute little place. I imagine that, years ago, this beachfront motel was a great place to stay, just because there was probably a lot of fun stuff around to do back then. I still absolutely enjoyed my stay though, because the staff was wonderful, and the rooms we're clean and quite nice for the age of the motel. I'd probably consider going here again, just to check out the haunted house next door in October.

Huge List of inconveniences and problems: Flickering lights, both in main room and by the basin. All outlets keep having power surges. TV did not have any working channels. Wifi was awful, less than 8kb/s average. Got stuck in the bathroom for an hour because the door handle was broken it just turned.
