Rooms appeared to be updated but floors were dirty. Bathroom and shower had patches and mold. There was a smell in the whole room as if there is no air circulation and its just swampy in there. Checking in/out staff was really nice and friendly. Located in front of a shopping area and lots of food options. We were just disappointed in the condition of the room.

Nice central location, close to the beach. The room was smaller than I thought, and it offers zero amenities. Coin laundry is cash only and vending machine prices were super high. If you’re going just to shower and sleep, this motel is fine. Not the cleanest, but not the worst. Lots of pot smoking smell during our stay from other guests.

The toilet in the room was broken. Pillows and sheets were dirty. Ended up going to the Walmart down the road and buying sheets and pillows. The window didn’t have a lock. Just a piece of wood jammed in the window. Lots of noise.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The property itself is not bad having a good location close to shopping better and dining areas but from other side it stand along the road. So the noise from road is awful. It seems the owners have invested in renovations and want to position the hotel as a clean and modern budget-friendly option. However, the lack of cleanliness in the room — and extremely poor housekeeping standards — seriously detracts from the overall experience. It was awful.
