Property great location great random people pulling in and out of parking lot and making noise all night other than that staff great rooms clean and close to beach
This was my 3rd time staying here for the Mountains 2 Beach Marathon. Great staff and conveniently located near finish line area.

Parking was an issue. The guest were a bit loud but its basically a party area. Great location! Beach two blocks away. The hotel was a bit run down but had it's charm. My only comlaint was parking and a not so great running toilet, a plugged tub and no A/C. Otherwise friendly staff and great location. don't expect the Marriot, it has an old beach charm to it.

You get what you pay for I guess. Much cheaper than other hotels in the area. Some exterior photos were of other buildings closer to the beach. Minimal amenities.
Good things were: very close to the beach, grocery store and restaurants.
This is a horrible property and the owners overcharged for booking on a third party site. In the middle of the night, the battery for fire alarm went dead and caused the unit to trip with ear piercing shrills. The ice machine is dead and seems they have no urgency in providing ice. The room was dirty with sand on the floor. The TP ran out. All the front office gave was lip service. The parking worked. The location wasn't bad.
Lovely vintage motel by the beach within walking distance to different dining options. Motel was clean, staff kind & courteous. Loved the fluffy pillows and soft bedding. Pleased with our stay. Would definitely come back.
