The motel has rooms facing the dining patio which can be busy, noisy, and a challenge for privacy. Parking is a challenge as well. The kitchen offers average fried fare. The bar staff is efficient and friendly. The bar has live music which is a plus, although what we heard was less than excellent. The room has drab decor, very low-rent finishes and the bed is comfortable.

Lovely, clean room with tile floors and a functional kitchen. There's a balcony with lounge chairs where you can sit and look at the ocean, and the beach is steps away.

Good budget hotel, great location

Freshly painted, quiet very clean, good value hotel right on the beach. Not fancy, but practical for a family on a budget - kitchen with microwave and refrigerator, two double beds, fluffy white towels. Very pleasant staff on the desk and a handy beach bar on the premises.
