Children in hot tub.

Would loved to have used the hot tub but couldn't for 3 straight days due to too many kids being in there. They were eating and spitting food in the water. It's a shame that paying adults at the bar and hotel can't enjoy the hot tub .

this is a traditional motel. the cars park right up close to the front doors of the rooms. the rooms are old but clean-ish. the shower is fine as is the A/C. there is no safe in the rooms. the walls are very thin, and there is noise from the neighboring rooms and the street. when we arrived, some plebs in the parking area were unfortunately playing loud music from their cars at midnight, unhindered by the motel staff. the pool is ok, and its a short walk across the street to the beach. the breakfast was unhealthy. the photos of the motel on Expedia make the motel look a lot more attractive than it actually is. I would say that if you plan only to sleep at the motel, then perhaps it's ok. but that might not even be true as it's noisy throughout the night

I thought it would be nice enough given that it is next door to Gaido's Restaurant. This is more of a spring break party vibe hotel, and "nice" is not a proper adjective. It is a place to stay if you are partying, not a place you take your family.

Hot tub and pool restaurant area are IT!!!

Super fun, cool vibes while still being family-friendly. The outdoor, ocean-side is perfection. The rooms and lobby etc. could use some attention however it was still clean, cute, and comfortable. And the outdoor amenities including pool, hot tub right next to the bar, ocean-view, friendly staff, and delicious food at the bar/restaurant make up for anything it lacks PLUS some! For the price, it’s absolutely amazing. I hope to come back and that they’re able to stay open for a long time.
