This is a nice motel. It's not fancy, but is comfortable, clean, and is oceanfront. The kitchenette enabled us to not have to eat out every meal. It has a nice indoor pool and hot tub for the winter.The staff were great.

Excellent location and ocean view. Property is very dated. Bathroom door wouldn't close and fan very loud. Harsh lighting. Television also dated. No phone in room. If you don't mind these things, it was otherwise comfortable and worth the cost.

We were not expecting to not have an ocean front room. The steps up to the room were uncovered and it was very uncomfortable for my wife who had recently had an injection in her knee. We ha e been happy with our room before when we have stayed there but we were very disappointed with our room this time.
