Parking was not great, but luckily there is street parking - be mindful of the time though. The AC works well but doesn't stay on long because the thermostat is so close to the unit. So when the AC was off, the room was always too warm. Great location though!

Standard motel

We wanted a family weekend at the aquarium! We were on the ground floor and motorcycles revved their engines every morning and afternoon. The front desk was nice. The bathroom was super small. If you are paying $150, great price and place. We were not paying $150 and will likely not go back.

Just OK. Pray to not have anyone in nearby room

This is a very basic hotel. It’s clean, it has parking, it is walking distance to down town and pier. But basic. Walls are so thin I could hear the person in the room next to us sneeze. I ordered a queen size bed but it looked more like a full size, was told at reception that this is indeed a standard queen, not an American queen, but last I checked we are still in America and most places that advertise a queen bed advertise a normal queen bed not the small one. I had to ask for a room with two beds because I couldn’t fit with my son in that little bed. I felt that they could’ve given me that courtesy without extra charging me for a room with two beds, but they didn’t- that is the reason I can’t say that their customer service was exceptional.
