Our stay at the Sea Shell was nice and accommodating. The only complaint that I would have is that my parents have trouble climbing to the third floor, and the steps are uneven and treacherous. I asked for different more accessible rooms on a lower floor to no avail. The room was clean, quiet, and had a beautiful view. Thank you.

Short Trip
We took a quick family trip in June. This was the cheaper option near the Aquarium, USS Lexington and walkable to the beach. The water was way too choppy when we went to get in, not the motels fault. However, the pictures of the motel are really deceiving. I understand when paying lower price you get what you pay for, but this was awful. Rusty, dirty rooms, stuff from the people before you on the floor (hair, gum wrappers, etc) the table tops were dirty, the headboard was broke, ceiling was disgusting, kitchen was dirty, bathroom was okay. It’s one thing when you see pictures of so so rooms and then you expect it, but when you expect what the listing reflects then actually arrive, it’s awful. Stairs, stairs and stairs. I don’t mind but when you have a 2 year old it was cumbersome. We swam in the pool one night, it wasn’t the cleanest and people were just out there smoking cigarettes while I have an 2 year old out there and they had their own kids. Shame. Only positive was the view from our room.

A lot of construction. It made driving confusing. No ice and no coffee. Had to go buy it. Closeness of the beach was great.
