Was cheaper than other motel/hotel stays and clean

It was noisy outside of my room at night and early in the morning. If anyone decided to stay do not get a room at the back of the building too noisy.

This is a older but lovely little spot. The rooms are small but comfy. Very close to the beach, maybe a 5 min. walk. The staff were wonderful. There is a place to eat and they even had live entertainment, which was excellent. Your about a 10 min walk from the downtiwn area. It was a perfect spot for me and my friend.
