The property is old. It reminded me of the motels one would see on the roads back in the 60s.

Each room has two chairs and a table in front of them for smoking, there even was a cigarette bucket. Room was very spacious and clean. Beds were a little hard and the only major issue I had was the AC unit in the wall did not keep the room super cold.

The room was spotless! Mattresses were okay; we're spoiled by ours at home. The AC would cut off for several minutes at a time and then come back on. The room was nice and cool while the AC ran, but it would become quite warm during the stopped period of time. Not sure why it was programmed to run that way. Other than that, the room was perfect, with all the amenities you could need--apartment sized refrigerator, small microwave, ironing board and iron, even a small stovetop!

Our stay was fine at this property. Nothing fancy but met our expectations of a non-chain beach hotel. Room was good sized and clean. Shower and sink did drain slow but not a deal breaker. Staff was friendly at check-in. Would stay here again.

Older lodge that was remodeled a couple of years ago. Perfect for a stay close to the beach without the beachfront prices. The bathtub in our room could use a little tlc. Other than that the place was great for the price. Will definitely stay here again.
