Nice little hotel. Clean and staff was friendly. They have laundry right there which was convenient as we're scuba divers and needed to dry a couple things for the next day. Right across from mini golf which we love and they have a cool little lounge area on fake turf across from a beautiful fountain.

The motel is undergoing some renovations on some rooms but it was quiet and didnt affect our stay at all. Quick friendly check in, you can play unlimited mini golf across the road and its a short walk to the public park/beach and boardwalk. Convenient location and good value for cost. Room was clean, instant hot water, fridge and microwave which was handy. My only negatives were the beds were a 5/10 for comfort and our room had no smoke detector installed, another suggestion would be a mat inside the door for the pine needles you can't help but track indoors.

We were very surprised at the room given the price we paid. It has more like a two star rating. The air conditioner could not be controlled because the knobs were all broken. The shower was not acceptable as the water barely came out of the tap. Unfortunately, given the price and what we got for the price, we will not be staying here again.

Great room for 5 with good space to get organized. I loved the kitchenette and the fact that we actually had a room and the living area separated. The only thing is that the AC was loud even though very convenient for this time of the year. Breakfast was great! Thank you for providing a good stay for us.
