Was not a 5 star hotel, Inn, or motel...BUT it was clean, staff was friendly and parking was safe! It was a nice place for a beach weekend! I will do again!
The lady that checked us in was very friendly. The room smelled of cigarette smoke. The floors were sandy,the toliet had not been flushed. When about to brush our teeth we realized that there was still toothpaste on the faucet. I am beging to think the room wasn't even cleaned.This place needs a major overhaul.
The property manager, Jamie was very sweet and accommodating. Apparently housekeeping had missed most of cleanup in our room.
Jamie had somebody come in as soon as we let her know and the job was taken care of. She was very apologetic but took care of the problem.
Was decently clean for sandy beachfront. Could use the fineries, trim here and there, better curtains. Great acess to beach waking. Good proximity to restraunts/stores. Didn't appreciate the neighbors hanging just out thier door to smoke going right into our ac.
The management team were very friendly and nice. The motel was nice and clean the a/c didn’t cool good but the manager is is in the process of replacing them with new ones. They don’t offer ice but they do have an outdoor shower so you can rinse off from the beach which is in walking distance from the motel. There’s a picnic area and a pet relief area. Other than minor issues it was nice and I would stay there again.

The lady at the front desk was so sweet and kind. I asked her where the nearest shop to buy my son a boogie board was and she gave him one of her own. She saved this Mom time so I got to spend more time with my family instead of shopping. It was less than a one minute walk to the beach. The beds were clean and decently comfortable, we will definitely be back.
It's a modest place, but it has everything you need to have a good stay, the price per night is very affordable, and the location is very convenient, just a few steps from the beach.

I hate to leave bad reviews but I cannot recommend this hotel. The few towels that were there all had bad stains on them. Same with the sheets. The blankets were filthy and looked like they had never been washed. The toilet seat had feces on it, the towel bar was broken and hanging down and they did not even provide toilet paper. I would have left but was too tired. I had a sheet in the car so I put it on top of the bed and slept on it. I would not chance sleeping in between the sheets. Will never go back.
