I think we were visiting early in the season for them. A couple lightbulbs were out, but they changed them while we went to dinner. Grab and go breakfast is pretty basic, but fine. Pull out bed was ok for kids, but adults probably would be uncomfortable. Main beds were great.

Awesome view. Room was clean, comfortable, and spacious. Facility is showing its age and needs TLC. Breakfast was minimal - enough if you want to grab and go, but not a meal.

The hotel is from the 1950's and feels like it. If you want something quaint from that era this is your place but old comes with little space to move around. Barely any room to walk around the bed or walk to shower. Couch, tables are maybe decades old. The portable ac is extremely loud. There was fried egg still on stove knob.

The view of the bay from our room was AMAZING!!! Our room was also very clean. We had the room with a balcony and a king-sized bed. The mini-fridge was bigger than I expected. The coffee pot was a four-cup drip-style. The microwave was small but worked well. As a motel, it is nice; it needs a little updating, but nothing that prevented us from enjoying our stay. They are dog-friendly... which is a huge plus for us. The common area had a lawn with nice grass, public charcoal grills, chairs, tables, and free ice. If you are noise-sensitive, be aware that there is a commercial facility down the road that you can hear the low hum of the machinery.
