Disliked: Cleanliness
Staff was nice, property was near beach. Shower was nice and hot. The beds were noisy as the box springs were audible from outside. The blanket had what may have been cigarette burns. All towels and bed sheets looked like it had been used to detail a Mac truck engine. We can hear the adjacent room guest breathing.

Room was clean although extremely small. Train horn was startling as it blew directly behind the motel. Online reservations does not allow motel to choose guests so many younger guests returning after the bars. All in all, a decent stay.
