The rooms were very very dirty. Mold on the shower curtain. Beds are old very uncomfortable. The drains smelled terrible… made you want to throw up. The town needs an upgrade on hotels! The town is a beautiful place to visit.

179.00 is a little much for this property, but I had no choice. Everything was booked in the surrounding areas. And the smell when you first walk in to check is an overbearing. Lucky the room didn’t smell like that

The hotel needs updating but for the price we paid it was fine. Room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Since it's on the highway we could hear traffic all night along with trains blowing their whistles.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Check in was an utter nightmare. I had paid via expedia and even shown the staff the credit card charge, he was rude and disrespectful demanding payment. I stated that i was going to call expedia to sort out the issue which continued to irritate him and he acted as if i was not within my right to ensure that i didnt pay twice for a reservation . I called expedia and got the issue sorted out and the front desk manager continued to treat me with disrespect and rudeness as if i was a nuisance to be at this hotel. The rooms were not what i was expecting. They were old and janky. Walls painted and apots on the ceiling as if no care was taken. The wifi aignal was very low. The temperature of the room was either freezing or roasting, no in between. After staying two nights, we regretted our decision to stay at this hotel and wished we would have slept in our vehical. We were even locked out of our room at 9 am on check out day. Checl out time is at 11am. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone and tell others to avoid it and stay elsewhere. For the price, there are certain expectations that you expect, ive stayed in nicer motel 6 than his hotel. There is even a random toilet on their property just sitting there. The beds were very uncomfortable additionally. Next time we will be staying at the casino which is not only cheaper but much more updated and had much more respectful staff.

For a cheaper hotel, it was very nice. A little out dated but comfortable. 10 minute walk to a huge beach was a great perk.
