I've stayed here three different times. Very clean and the staff are very friendly. I usually go to DB every month and try to stay away from the chain motels. This place is very clean. I recently took my one year old grandson over for the weekend. Wasn't concerned about a thing. The staff was extremely nice. I will certainly be back.

Vintage 60's motel

Its an adorable 60's retro motel with some upgrades (renovated bathrooms and locks), a nice size pool, and right on the beach. Sound does carry, so bring earplugs.
