We had 3 of us in the room and received one face cloth and 3 hand towel..how to shower? Being own towels. While they state they have A/C they control it. Carpets are sticky. Chain on door has not locking ability and the piece of the door that engages to the strike plate was stuck in the door. Thank goodness for the deadbolt. Wifi is rubbish. Lastly you have to set up the tv and cable yourself.

Disliked: Amenities
The stay was fairly average. I wouldn’t recommend it for families with kids, as there was a noticeable smell of weed. The room had some bugs, and both the room and washroom were quite small. After the gas station closes, there’s no staff available on-site, which can be inconvenient. The security deposit was also relatively high, and the room lacked sufficient lighting. On a positive note, the location is close to a beautiful beach and park, both within walking distance. Parking is available just in front of the building.

The room was small and the bed was a little lumpy. The room was clean and had everything we needed. It was good for a one-night stay for two of us. Breakfast in the restaurant the next morning g was really tasty and well priced.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is very old, and the condition of the room does not justify the price. The most unreasonable part is being required to pay a $200 deposit at check-in. I don’t believe anything in the room is worth over $200, nor are there any additional services that would justify such a charge. Even some five-star hotels only hold a small deposit for services like long-distance calls. I genuinely wonder why Expedia allows such an unreasonable policy for this motel.
