This was a very nice way to get on the beach for a few days. This is a small family owned place that has been around for a long time and a nice quiet get away and the beach is flat and wonderful to walk.

The property is dated, but that adds somewhat to a kind of charm and rusticness. It is on the water and has a very nice and large patio area on the ocean side. I would definitely stay again. Also, I thought the room rates were reasonable for the area.

This was a very relaxing stay. It is right on the beach. There is not a coffeepot in every room or a hairdryer, but they have cable TV. We brought our own coffeepot and hairdryer and we were fine,There is also a kitchen available if you just bring your own coffee, and pots and pans for cooking in the motel section as well. If you are looking for a quiet place, with a clean room, hot shower, and right on a quiet beach, this is it. Very close to major attractions and good food. We will be returning!

Just OK

The rooms were clean but the motel is older and a little run down. The owners were a little cranky at times but overall not bad. Beds were hard and the showers weren't great. I’m 5”9’ and o had to bend down to get my head wet. Overall it was just ok but I doubt I would stay again.

The location is great. It has a private entry to the beach so you don't need to walk a long distance to go to the beach. In addition, you won't find any hotel with breakfast in that area and this hotel has a great option which is a shared kitchen where you can prepare a light breakfast. This is an awesome option. The staff was kind and friendly. I felt like a family. There were two thing I didn't like. There was no recycle bin. On the other hand, rooms had carpet instead of wood floors and those carpets smells a bit. The location close to the beach might cause that smell. I will suggest to change those carpets. If you want to get rest and you don't want to go to the center quite often, this place will fit your needs.
