Beds are as hard as rocks, looks as though they did a remodel not that long ago but done by someone inexperienced. Rooms were however clean and stuff helpful.

Stayed here to rest our eyes on our drive and loved it. It’s very quiet and comfortable and reasonably clean. The bathrooms could be a little cleaner though but other than that we would stay here again.

Great location for visiting the sites we wanted to see in the area. The pool is clean and large and was great after a hot day of touring. Very close to the beach and the staff kindly provided a pass so we didn’t have to pay for beach parking.

visiting family in town

Perfectly located for our family trip. The pool was clean with lots of shaded and comfortable areas to sit. The beach pass was an added bonus. My only complaint is there is no fan in the bathroom and it fogged up so much that the toilet paper becomes so wet you can't use it.

Decent basic motel

Friendly staff, great outdoor pool, comfortable bed, powerful shower water pressure, reasonably close to concert venue. Our room had a small refrigerator but no microwave. Blackout shades were nice but once opened there is zero privacy curtains to let in light. We would probably stay here again, maybe in an upgraded room. My only major complaint is our room had a strange off putting odor. My husband said it was smoke, I thought it smelled like a wet dog. We don’t smoke and didn’t bring our dogs. Left the door open and let the room air out a bit.

The hotel was nice. Rooms were clean and well maintained. Pool was nice but could use a few more lounges and umbrellas (that do t blow over in the wind).
