Older property but very convenient to the beach. At a comparably good price point to other options when we compared. We go to the beach for the beach and not necessarily for the amenities of the motel.

I loved that it was just walking distance to the beach and the place was not very expensive. The rooms were kept clean and the people were very nice. One of the best motels I’ve stayed at. Only issue was WiFi was not very good but overall. Very good
