Great stay! The only complaint is that you can’t get early check in due to it being a smaller motel and if you want to check out before 11am you have to wait till at least 9am because that’s when the staff gets there. Other than that we loved the location for beach access and couldn’t beat the price for a quick summer beach trip.

It was a nice stay except for the fact that we had a dog with us and they put us on the 3rd floor all the way in the corner, and the room was old and needed updating. There was also a lot of people smoking by the pool so they don’t enforce their no smoking policy.

Hair in the shower and refrigerator along with old food.used towels behind the bathroom door.bugs, only one window air conditioner worked, we had a 2 bedroom and that units hot air dumped into a hall stairway so that part was 100 plus degrees, sure it's a code violation. Funny thing was there was another window it could have been it and would probably work they did clean next day, but only half was done . We will never stay there again.not sure how it's a high rating, also pictures are not same as the room, they didn't look anything like my room! Don't leave valuables in your room, I could easily push the door open, my truck was safer. That's crazy.

Didn’t like climbing 3 flights of stairs with luggage but the view of the ocean was spectacular, so it was honestly worth it. Loved the service where we put out linens and trash outside our door and it was picked up and fresh linens were left in their place. Loved the comfy pillows on the bed. They were so fluffy. Didn’t like the dark stairways. Couldn’t even see how to put the key in the door to unlock it. Needs working lights. Staff was super friendly. Overall, we would stay there again…good experience.

We had a wonderful view of the ocean and pier!!! Our suite was comfortable and quiet at night. My main problem was climbing the stairs to the third floor. I am awaiting surgery to have a complete right knee replacement. I had to go one step at a time.l
