It's budget and did the job

This hotel did the job. This is a basic motel with car parking and beds and good cable TV. It's old and could use a renovation. Staff was friendly and it was nice to have a morning coffee in the office before heading out, although the coffee wasn't available until 9am. Thankfully the room wasn't too cold overnight as the heater was turned off for the summer. Across the street from a small public beach and a fun tiki bar.

Not what was advertised

I rarely ever cancel a stay, but I had to here. The room was unsanitary, and the condition of the property raised safety concerns. The door didn’t close or lock properly, with visible daylight coming through the large gap. The table fan was bolted to the side of the wall, and overall, the space did not feel secure or comfortable. The parking situation was also VERY tight. I have a small car, but I wouldn't bring a truck anywhere near there. I would caution anyone considering this property—it is not what I would consider a safe, sanitary, or comfortable place to stay.

When checking in it was a smooth process. It’s small but for a weekend get away it makes the most sense. The front desk person was helpful and during check out she was so friendly and personable. The stores are super close by literally walking distance along with food options around. It’s close to a beautiful beach where I had attended a wedding. So convince is what I was looking for. They place out coffee in the morning which was nice instead of us spending a pretty penny on Starbucks. The beds were super comfortable ! So having a good night sleep was needed after traveling 4 hours plus having to do event stuff around town. We enjoyed our stay!
