The motel is very convenient. Two blocks from public beach access. And four or five blocks from the Circle. It's old, but clean. And was very quiet.

I love the location of this property but for the price we paid, next time I will pay a little extra and drive a little farther to go to a place that I know is newer and will be clean. The bathroom was a repair mess of slapping lipstick on a pig, exposed seams buckling at the edges of some wall repairs (I took pictures if you want them). The place still had carpet which is probably why the musty moldy smell was so strong. I checked the filter in the AC and that was clean (small bonus) With all the other conditions I was actually worried about bed bugs so we slept on top of the comforter in hopes that, if they were there, they might not get us through all the fabric. The smell was a little better when we left the door open but we could not sleep exposed like that. I'm still having sneezing fits a week later. Sorry will not return

Blessed because you can’t put a price tag on a pie

Greatest staff I have ever encountered. I travel a lot for work & I stay in places all across this country. Not the newest place but we were here for the Beach. We will be coming back see you next year.

There is not a good hand hold for the stairs in one area. I was holding onto a piece of wood and it came off in my hand. I almost fell down the stairs.

Room wasn’t ready at checking time. Things were left in refrigerator and personal items in bathroom. Only old key locks for rooms and some tried to open my door at midnight. They had a key. Luckily I had the chain and doorstop on. Worst hotel through orbits I’ve ever stayed at.
