I asked the staff repeatedly to get my room clean. The floor was so dirty the rug was stuck to the floor. There was used q tips in the bathroom floor under and around the commode. Sadly we love the motel but it was totally ruined by the lack of cleanilness and the lack of caring that we were unhappy and not making it right.

Terrible Experience - Don't Waste Your Time!

The photos on the website didn't represent what the room looked like in person. The room was not cleaned, towels were old and stained, the chain on the door was not working, the people entering the hotel looked sketchy and the front desk staff was not friendly and appeared annoyed doing her job. I asked for a refund and didn't stay in this hotel. I would not recommend it.

It was a 3 star hotel, so my expectation was not too exaggerated. However, during my 4 days stayed they were no attempt to clean, remove garbage or change the towels by the staff on duties. Eventhough I complained about the removal of the garbages and towel changed to the front desk , but in vain

This place has something for everyone. If you enjoy the resort vibes, just want to park your car and spend a few days on the beach, drinks, food and fun this is the place. If you do not like live beach bands playing after dark and before noon you might feel a little out of place. Staff is always great, plenty of Security
