Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our stay was extremely disappointing. The first room we were given had stains on every layer of the bedding. After requesting a new room, we found the second one wasn’t any better—stains on the sheets, black hair on every towel, and even in the bathtub. The shower had a visible layer of dust on top, which made it clear that cleaning and upkeep are not being taken seriously. This was by far one of the most unpleasant and unsanitary places I’ve ever stayed.

There were some strange characters staying at the motel not sure if it was being used as a half way house. There was a guy turn up in a van and parked in the entrance. i would not stay again, if you just want a cheap over nigher on t\our own as a male i think its doable

Very close to the beach. Minimal amenities. Bring your own soap because there’s melts after just a few uses. Mostly clean. Bed squeaked with minimal movement. Not as nice as I hoped.

Not For Everyone Very Basic No Frills Good Deal

The best part was that they do have a dedicated "front desk" person on staff 24 hours as I had to check in after midnight. Location is very convenient to the beach and at a much cheaper price than surrounding hotels can be. Other than that it is BASIC accommodation at best and the overall condition of the room made me feel like things weren't quite as clean as they could be and I was dubious about actually sleeping under the covers. There was no way I was going to take a shower in that bathroom - tiny and dingy with poor lighting. No issues occurred, so if "basic-basic" is fine by you then you have find your extremely good deal for the area.
