The place advertised a pool. The pool was closed. Did not state this fact on website. No refunds allowed. Got no discount. Was not allowed to have a visitor. It was ridiculous. A lot was tore up in the room. I would never recommend this motel.

The staff made staying there the best experience. Lots of personal touches. It’s not the big fancy places nearby, but the easy access to the beach and the friendly atmosphere makes the stay so enjoyable. Close to so much. Property is older, but well maintained and comfortable.

First room we got had a mouse and the outlets in bathroom didn't have covers, we told front desk so they moved us. He said they were under new management. We figured since a lot of building supplies in parking lot. Next room sheets were stained and looked like codee grounds or dirt in bed. Then bugs. We didn't say anything because we were so tired got up early next morning and left. This place needs a lot of attention

There was hair on the pillow cases, on the mirror, towels, and in the shower drain, clogging it up. Long human hairs. Roaches get through cracks around the door. The parking is a nightmare and the lot is completely full after 10pm. Don't bring a big truck. Pool is full of brown water. The area reeks of smoke and people are out and about from dusk until dawn. Should not be available through Expedia. More like a local motel.

This place was terrible all around. When we first entered the room, several things were visible. The bathroom had 1 roll of toilet paper, 2 towels, & 2 bar soaps (that broke on first use). The shower drain was rusted with visible hair clumps just sitting there. The sheets had small spots on them, bed & pillows were hard as rocks. The mini fridge had a cup on the bottom with what looked like fungus in it and the smell of vinegar was enough to make a person vomit. We didn’t even open the microwave. The tv was a giant paper weight. No channels were available, and had cords just hanging off the front of the cabinet for hdmi port. Half of the wall outlets didn’t work. There was a t shirt left behind a chair. The staff were barely available/helpful. When asked for towel exchange, we were handed 1 towel (which also looked unclean). While we were out of the room, someone came in a vacuumed, but didn’t do anything else. Not once was the beds made or towels that were left on the floor exchanged. We observed a lady with a rag and spray bottle coming in and out of rooms & assuming she was the cleaner. Several times we would see suspicious activity such as a man and woman pull up, get out, drop a syringe & needle on the ground & pick it up, enter a room for 20 minutes and leave. Payment is non refundable, and now I know why.

There was no pool even though it is proudly displayed on their website. The TV didn't work. The toilet wouldn't flush. And an empty box of condoms was in the trash. I would tell everyone to stay away from this property.

Sleep in the car instead!
Took a day trip to celebrating my husband and I anniversary. I understand that you get what you pay for but the room rate should have been $29/NT instead of $129. Unfortunately, there was very slim rooms available for July 4th weekend but there was a door to the outside with a deadbolt only no way to secure it for safety. Then the amount of German Roaches in the room we couldn’t sleep not knowing if they were going to crawl all over us while we slept. Safety & Security is not what they make a priority. The front window was cracked and an actual key (house) to be used. It’s 2023, I have been in hotel service for 20+ years this is overall the worst I’ve ever stayed at.

No
Not recommended. Looks like long-term low rent tenants living there who were yelling across the pking lot to each other in a threatening way. Not a beach motel. Felt unsafe. Avoid.

Nice little place but no check-i n after 10pm
Nice little place directly on the beach. Flew in late & needed a place for a short nite. WARNING: No check in after 10pm which you don't find out until after you book. No refunds! After a few texts & phone calls they let us pick up a key in a drop box. Whew! Nice people & very cozy. Pool closed. What else is new as that seems to be a common occurance at many of the smaller places.

pool and entrance to the beach is closed. One bed was comfortable and one bed squeaked. I was charged a $5 fee for putting the $50 room deposit on a credit card. Shower has NO pressure at all. Took 45 minutes to wet my hair to be able to wash it.

It was $100, but the pool was closed (not stated on the website), there was construction, so there was no direct beach access. There were little bugs on the window in the bathroom. A dirty napkin was left in the room (after cleaning and it wasnt mine). The morning i left i was in the bathroom getting ready and there was a construction worker right at my bathroom window. It was overpriced for what it was. Would not stay there again.
