Great overall stay

It was a beautiful view. Right on the beach. Lots of space in the room. Loved that we had a full size fridge and a small stove. Comes with dishes, paper towels, cleaning supplors, extra blankets and towels. The only thing i could complain about is the bed and pillows where super hard. Perfect if you like hard bedding, but not for our family. Other that everything is perfect. Also, there is a pier directly beside the hotel.

Its a motel on the beach - location can not be beat. Each room has a full size fridge and are fairly spacious. Yes, the rooms are old and dated but did I mention, IT IS ON THE BEACH! You won't be disappointed.

You could see the ocean from the balcony. It’s was steps away/easy to access. Lovely older building with parking for the residents underneath.

Older hotel, large rooms, affordable, with kitchenette, right on the beach. Friendly and helpful staff, and parking was included. Unfortunately, we had a loud group of fishermen, right above us, who partied til 2 am. We didn’t contact the office, but put in earplugs and stuck it out. Next time would call management because it tainted an otherwise comfortable stay.

Large room. Clean and comfortable. Liked having the kitchenette with full size fridge. That provided the opportunity to eat out less and save money. Good view of ocean from balcony on south side of the building (not oceanfront). Staff on site 7 am - 11 pm. Luckily no problems since response time would.be at least 30 minutes. Didn't like that room number is displayed on parking tag. Convient location with restaurants, bars, and grocery about 5 minutes away.
