This place was wonderful! My son and his children stayed in a bigger unit with a kitchenette and a table in the room. It also had a gated patio area outside the door with another table and chairs. I had a smaller standard motel room that was just right for me. There is a grilling area, a nice pool and plenty of parking. The ocean is at the back of the property. Highly recommend this place.

Would like more personal service. Checking in was kind of clunky using a screen. The floor and sheets felt like there was sand.

The stay was good. My only complaint was that the staff was non existent. I never saw a single staff member from check-in to check- out. Not one. My check in material was on the desk at check in. When we left… no one. I went to the office to get more coffee on the second day. No one. Very strange.

Could have used one chair in the room. Maid didn’t knock before entering in the morning. Made for an awkward moment. And then 5 minutes later another maid walked in on us! We didn’t have a do not disturb sign on the handle. But I still think they should have knocked before entering. Check in staff and kiosk. Staff were excellent.

What a great stay especially for the price! Everyone was super friendly at check in. They are right on the beach and there is an amazing restaurant right across the street. No need to spend money on the big chain hotels this is the place to stay!!! The room was nice, quaint and clean. There want much water pressure in the shower but it was enough to do its job. They have a new Kiosk thing for check and out. It was super awkward coming up on zoom at check out but other than that a really nice place.

Comfy beds, ample room. Basic all you need kitchenette. Friendly front desk. No carpet which I think is a plus.
