Check in was fast. Staff was very helpful and even provided beach tags for our stay. And answered any questions we had. I'd recommend to anyone. Very close to me and my families favorite pizza spot too. Manco manco, you won't regret it!. Also the beds were very comfortable and the ac worked great too. The bathroom was very roomy too, nice after a day at the beach. Looking forward to our next stay

The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. The cleaning staff was also very friendly. The motel and room are basic (no pool, no real amenities). However, the room was clean, quiet, and perfect for our stay. The bed was VERY creaky, but comfortable. Be aware that there is a $35 cash or venmo deposit for each beach tag. All in all, we were happy with the motel's proximity the beach, the quietness of the property and the friendliness of the staff.

This hotel works great for me, i am out birding very early & really just need a place to refuel and rest each night. I liked the smaller pillows on the bed vs most hotels have overstuffed big pillows. The room maid service was great ( please remember to tip these folks, they work hard) & the office is always very friendly & helpful.

Room was clean, furniture had seen some better days but everything was clean. Staff was more than accommodating and kind. We had to check in super late and they got up with us and got us checked in and settled with smiles on their faces. Super close to the boardwalk and perfect for a place to shower and sleep.
