Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This was a last minute, last resort situation to book this motel, and it was a waste of money. The facilities were dirty (ash trays full of butts, yet there’s supposed to be no smoking outside of rooms, cat food on the ground), the beds were incredibly uncomfortable we could feel the metal through them, and the walls are paper thin (we could hear the neighbor, which seemed like a long-term tenant, using metal utensils in their dishes and their tv on all night that’s how thin the walls were). It was a horrible nights sleep and so not worth the price. Maybe things are different during the summer season, but I can’t see how they could improve that much. Would never, ever stay here again; I’d rather sleep in my car.

The area is unique. Its beginning to get built up and renovated. This property is an original, and I must say, its in better condition, is clean inside rooms, and the managers office is friendly, co.pared to others in the area. Its only March and it is the off season but when ithe town opens up soon, this place will definitely be happening.

The efficiency room was very clean. The two fullsize beds were comfortable. Room could use some updating. Bathroom was small. Could’ve used some shelves to put toiletries on. Loved the dog bathing station outside. Came in handy after taking our dogto the beach. Parking spaces were a little tight. Staff was friendly and helpful!
