Usually stay in downtown area, but fully booked due to the Shambala Festival happening near by. This hotel was located on the edge of town with beautiful views of the bridge and city lights at night. Short walk to the town's beach right across the bridge. Hotel was older, but super clean and comfortable; with friendly front desk and cleaning staff. Great stay, thank you:)

We were delighted with our stay. The room we rented had a small kitchen, full size fridge, comfy bed and large bathroom. Room was clean, property is well kept. Plenty of parking. Beach access is a short walk just down the hill from the motel. Cafe on site. Property is family owned, lobby has hours. Be sure to call if you will be checking in late.   Water and other beverages for sale in lobby. Located about 5 min drive from downtown. We didn't notice the road noise. Mini split kept the room very comfortable. Overall would definitely recommend.

Rooms were clean, extremely well lit, albeit lacking somewhat for coat hangers, just a couple of hooks and a small chest of drawers. Room small, bed good, bathroom huge and very clean. Easy to check in and out. Coffee machine needed engineering degree but worked fine. Parking plentiful and easy
