The motel is old. I've been staying there for 24 years. The rooms are clean, air conditioner works great, the staff is exceptional. I just spent a week there. I was also there 3 weeks ago. I love it!

I stay here almost every time I’m in Surfside. This isn’t a place for someone wanting fancy accommodations but if you’re wanting a place on/near the beach at an affordable price this place is great. Definitely could use some updating and overall maintenance but the rooms are clean and never seen bugs present in the room. One minute walk to the beach and the vehicle entrance is a block away.

This is an old, not well maintained building. The air-conditioners are window units. This is a last resort, must have a room motel. Avoid if safety and air quality are important to you.

It's a modest place, but it has everything you need to have a good stay, the price per night is very affordable, and the location is very convenient, just a few steps from the beach.

I booked a room for two days. When we got there the front office lady had an attitude with me for no reason. Told me that the previous Tennants messed up the room but her cleaning person did a "bang up job" walked into the room bed sheets were clean and that was it. Ashes on almost every surface. The refrigerator was so dirty the water stunk so bad. Then to top it off charged me extra cause I forgot to leave the key but brought it back an hour later. Absolutely never again they should demolish this place. The lady running it is definitely a drug addict.
