Older property, but pretty well taken care of. Right on the beach. Everything you need is less than 2 blocks away.

I love that it’s right on the beach and every room has an unobstructed beach view. The kitchen was well stocked and the bed was very comfortable. It was very clean. The WiFi connection was poor and I ended up using a personal hotspot. Not adequate for working or streaming programs. Otherwise it was fine. I will stay here again. Good value for the money.
Walked in and looked like it hadn’t been cleaned or vacuumed. Stains on sofa, burnt grime on stove top, back door leading to beach was not locked. Went to check for bed bugs and pulled the sheets back only to find nasty stains on both sides of the bed. I mean stains that had not been thru the laundry. Disgusting. We had reservations for 2 nights. Could not stay in that room. They gave us a different room for 1 night which was better but not much. No fitted sheets on any beds. They did give us a full refund with the 1 night at no cost since there was nowhere for us to go. They put 0 into maintenance. The place is falling apart. What a shame to have a place in such a great location with no upkeep and falling apart and filthy
Really excellent location… door to the beach. Fantastic views.
The town had some really good restaurants…Sand Dollar, Los tres locos Mexican and a really good Indian food truck.
Look like pelican brewing will be opening a place there too, very shortly.
The two best things were the easy beach access and the bed. The room I had could have used some serious refreshing; the toilet seat had well worn markings that looked pretty gross; the sink was cracked; most of the furniture was prominently scratched; one of the comforters and one of the towels were torn; there was only one overhead light in the main room (aside from nightstand lamps) and the entry way was dark at night; and the room and bathroom could have been cleaned better. The front office staff, however was very nice! I am happy to email pictures.
We had a little porch and a walkway down to the beach. It was secluded and felt so wonderful. The bed was soooo comfortable! I felt safe the whole time. If we ever come back we are staying here again.
This motel is in a great location and the staff was nice but the facility is very old and ran down. It could be very nice but sadly it wasn't on this visit. Our room was overlooking the end of the street at the beach and cars were continually turning around. The facility has no AC and we had to leave the windows open the entire time we were there making the traffic and people noise very irritating.
Nice people to check you in, but definitely outdated and needs lots of TLC. It served its purpose of providing a bed to sleep, but would not stay here again.
Nice hotel right on the beach, walk out my back door and right on the beach. Basic room but very clean and looks to be recently updated and remodeled. Nice fridge with separate freezer that will actually freeze water and keep stuff frozen. I will be back someday!

Great view and proximity to beach. Great price. Older property pretty clean but curtains in rags, dirt in corners of bath, and no fitted sheet on bed so the bottom sheet came undone so was sleeping on bare mattress. But I would come again for price and location
