Its a basic motel. The front staff initially messed up my reservation as I had booked a room with 2 beds and they put us in a single queen room. I brought it to their attention and they were super helpful, offering a new room to fix their error. The location is ok, right on the hwy and easy to find. Rooms are brick walls, so poor cell reception in them. Bathroom has a stall shower which was small.

The rooms were basic but recently updated. Bed was comfy and clean and the room had ammenities such as fridge and coffee maker. It is located close enough to the ferry to be convenient and the price was reasonable. It is along a busy street though, so a bit noisy.
