Expired insurance

The owner is the rudest person I have ever met in my entire life. He talks to people like they dogs. He doesn't even have insurance on the property, it has expired

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very dirty, very disgusting mold smells of cigarettes many broken or missing items. So bad that even though I checked in at mid night I booked and left for another hotel getting there at 1am after a full day of travel. Should of gotten a full refund but didn’t even want to stay any longer than I had to.

The cigarette smoke was very strong in our room until 2am so it was coming in from another room somehow. There were questionable people around the front door asking for money. It was scary!

Terrible Room and Terrible Service

This "non-smoking" room smelled of cigarettes, including the pillows. No top sheet, no phone, no hot water, no soap or shampoo and a carpet that defies description. No view and no coffee pot in the room, no coffee in the foyer or anywhere nearby to purchase. A staff that was rude and scary. I was actually threatened when I asked for assistance with the television.

Ocean puke inn

Im not typically ever a complainer but people should know this place is a bit rough not for the faint of heart. When i got in there was fecies floating in the toilet and it was dirty as hell all over the bathroom. Bugs yerin and dirt and food splatters. Microwave was gross covered in old food.The sheets had dirt on them and stains. I dropped my phone under the bed and there were used syringes. Sticky counter by the bathroom. Shower had who knows what film dirt scum etc.in addition to that super freezing cold night. Right on the water. The heater is too old to work or put out any heat no matter how high you put it. Frozen in the dirty motel is a vibe you will never forget unfortunately and youre sure to shiver a little each time you remember.
