Had a great stay at this motel. Room is clean, my only complaint was the shower can be slippery, but that's why they provide the anti slip mat to use.

The property was very clean, and the area seemed safe. It's close to shopping, and the beach. Excellent Japanese Fusion restaurant just across the street. Very friendly staff, i was pleasantly surprised when the hostess remembered my name at checkout, despite only meeting her for several minutes at check-in.

The room was good for the price. Bed was comfortable. There was some spider webs in the corners of the bathroom and an issues with the draining of the tub but the staff was friendly. Only recommendation would be an 11am check out time like most other hotels.
