Do not bother spending more money on a sea view vs regular room as the standard rooms get the same view as you do just a little further back. Both rooms you have to step outside to see the ocean. The shower flooded the bathroom floor everytime we showered. Only thing good about this motel was that it was right on the ocean. Would also be nice if they told you that you had to pay to park in their lot at the time of booking. Front desk people were not friendly at all.

Not pleased with the stay at all. The hotel is lit up like the 4th of July which is fine until its time to sleep. The blinds did not block out the light at all so I had put towels up so we could sleep. The bathroom door would not close nor would it lock. Toilet paper holder was non existent and towel holder was falling off the wall. I had to fix the toilet at least 5 times because the chain came off and it either wouldn't flush or would constantly run because the chain got under the flapper. Taking a shower while the curtain was stuck to my body was rather annoying because curtain rod is curved into the shower and theres no place to put anything in the shower other than the floor. The water would pool in the corner behind the toilet. The only mirror is in the bathroom. Would be nice if there was a mirror outside the bathroom so more than 1 person can get ready to go out at a time. There's only 1 small trash can in the bathroom and there's not enough room to put toiletries so they're more convenient. No place to sit other than the beds. The beds had hair all on and in them. There was a small bench behind the door but had to put bags on it to get them out of the way. And one last thing, the elevator was out of order for a day because someone had decided to doo doo in there one night. They did have it up and running by the next day. Still had a lingering odor tho. It is convenient to the beach but I would not ever stay here again nor would I recommend it to anyone.
Bathroom with no counter space.
This is where the water would pool
Curtain rod curved inward
A little nasty

Such a great location and cool hotel. Small but such a fun island vibe. Hotel needs major updates. I understand being older and that’s fine but a few things look likes people just see it and over look it. Just fix it. Would be such a better location with better reviews if someone just took the time to fix a few things. If you do not keep room super cool then the humidity will have your pillows feeling soaking wet. When we came in pillows were wet. Was still some sand on a beach where we were sleeping putting our bags. I think housekeeping just needs to be a little better. Not sure if they are lazy or rushing.

This property is in a stellar location, but it has been worn hard and hung up wet. The bathroom sink would not drain, and the shower curtain kept zero water inside shower. Mostly the bathrooms need to be gutted. The beds were decent and I would add a blackout curtain.
