Place is a bit tired but is right adjacent to the beach so that makes up for it. Had a full kitchen including full size fridge. We’d stay here again.

The property is old. Has been updated. But still needs more. Maid service never made both beds. Only one. Had to get coffee cups and toilet paper. No instructions on how to operate tv. Needs smart tvs added. Bathroom shower redone. But shower head and faucet just stuck in wall. Our beds were comfortable.

TV was confusing to use - should have had instructions that matched the remote. Desk clerk was helpful but it took him almost a half hour to get it to work. Toilet lid and seat would not stay up without being held. (Room 305). Comfortable and clean! Would stay again.

Good hotel, wish the front desk was better.

Great location and nice hotel. Not the best front desk service. They charge a “resort fee” when you show up (after you’ve paid the full price). Very slow and received a finger from the attendant telling me to wait as he answered the phone to book someone for about 10 minutes after I had been waiting in line behind another group for 10 minutes. Overall, good experience. Just some slightly unimpressive customer service.

Nice that it was oceanfront. It is an older property and it looks like they try to keep as clean as best as they can. There was (dog?) poop outside of our door two mornings. Most likely will never stay here again.

Check-in staff was NOT friendly. She did not share times the pool was open, where to get ice, or the fact that there was NO ELEVATOR and we were in the 4th floor!! The room was fine. Beds were comfortable & shower was decent. AC worked well. Location is excellent. But, the ice machine did not work the ENTIRE time we were there in a July heat wave. There was a cockroach in the pool area & on our balcony the last night. And someone let their dog poop on the second story landing & did not clean it up the day we were checking out. I DO NOT recommend this motel at all, unless you have absolutely no other options.
