10/10 Excellent
"The room served it's purpose for our two night stay. It was clean, just a bit noisy by the freeway entrance, but no fault of the motel. This is our second time we stayed. My only complaint is they charge $20 a night for guest parking. That's ridiculous. As much as they charge, parking should be free for guests."

"The proximity to the beach is excellent and using two e-bikes for up to two hours free allowed us to scoot down to the beach bike path and back up easily. The pool is lovely but was busy on the Labour Day long weekend. The rooms are well appointed and the staff very attentive. The fridge was not very cold but ok for waters. I’d stay here again."
