The hotel is older but our room was large and very clean. Beds were comfortable and the staff was happy to provide additional toiletries or a bandaid as needed! Only complaint is that the elevator is tiny. Very relaxing weekend

Just an average hotel. What ever they were doing on the beach in front of hotel left very little beach area. The air condition in our room ran constantly and never got below 74 degrees. Very uncomfortable and humid.

Loved the location. The stove top, microwave and restroom could have been cleaner. The outside chairs more comfortable and not dirty/ what seemed to be burnt marks. All in all it was a nice place to stay at,. although for the $ spend a bigger t.v would have been a great addition as well. The accommodations where great and nice staff. I will definitely stay again!

I have waited a few days to let the initial irritation wear off before responding. This is a high dollar motel 6. Our ocean front room looked out over a construction site. Yes, the ocean was beyond it but construction was not mentioned while booking. It has a “kitchenette” with a sink the size of a bathroom basin, no dishwasher and dirty dishes in the cabinet. The coffee condiment package was open, the fridge was rusty and parking was terrible. Couldn’t wait to leave in the morning. Left early at 7:30.

I really loved our stay here. It is the first hotel at the beginning of the strip, but it is still close enough to the strip. The walk is only about 2 to 3 minutes before you hit the busier parts but even still within a minute, there is still food. View is beautiful. The hot tub did its job in the room and you walk straight out onto the beach. The only reason I gave it four stars for the amenities is because the bathroom water barely worked, but the water in the kitchen sink worked great. The shower pressure was decent, and I also only gave it a four because I was bummed that it didn’t have a gym, but I did do a walk from the beginning of strip to the end which totaled out to about 5 miles. The room did have a fridge and a kitchen sink equipped with plates and silverware/cups for your use. The rooms were clean. The staff also kept their rooms clean and kept the sand out as much as possible during our stay for the week! There is laundry available we did two loads throughout our stay very affordable. You pay right on your phone. Make sure you bring your own laundry stuff. I did not see anything for purchase up near the washers. (I also wasn’t looking because I did bring my own though) the pool was kept very clean in the water was very warm throughout our whole stay but keep in mind. The ocean was also very warm and we had an amazing day! I would 100% recommend this hotel. I would also stay here again! The parking lot was a little small, might be an issue during busier times
We were directly in the middle in room 525. This is the view from the hotel room. You can see the edge where the surfers are. It is amazing to wake up to!
The view directly from our room we were on the fifth floor out of six
The Jacuzzi tub easily fit myself and my two small kids probably even one more adult
