Awesome view. Room was clean, comfortable, and spacious. Facility is showing its age and needs TLC. Breakfast was minimal - enough if you want to grab and go, but not a meal.

The view of the bay from our room was AMAZING!!! Our room was also very clean. We had the room with a balcony and a king-sized bed. The mini-fridge was bigger than I expected. The coffee pot was a four-cup drip-style. The microwave was small but worked well. As a motel, it is nice; it needs a little updating, but nothing that prevented us from enjoying our stay. They are dog-friendly... which is a huge plus for us. The common area had a lawn with nice grass, public charcoal grills, chairs, tables, and free ice. If you are noise-sensitive, be aware that there is a commercial facility down the road that you can hear the low hum of the machinery.

Clean room, but oddly crowded. Narrow spaces to navigate in room (2 beds) and in shower area. It was comfortable, but many noises throughout the night, included the sound of water dripping (slow to rapid, then stop for a bit, then repeat) coming from ceiling it seemed. Maybe refrigerator noise? who knows. But it kept one of us up a bit. Some loud clunks as well -- may have been screen doors from other units, but it seemed odd.
