Cheap Stay, get what ya pay for, would go again

Cheap little place for a couple nights. Company contact was in touch before your stay with check in info. Uses electronic door locks with codes, no keys to worry about I like that. It was my wife, 2 kids and myself. Room was good for just a couple nights. Not sure when trash day is, but all the barrels were full, even the "recycling barrels" were full of trash instead of recyclables. We were in unit 4, could use some new flooring/updating but it was serviceable. Had everything we needed for a couple nights. We would stay again, the price was what I expected for value and what you get. There is a dollar general down the road if you forget something, as well as a Walgreens. Mile walk to Pier or drive down, we drove and paid for parking. Biggest thing I didn't like, which others mentioned in reviews was the mandatory $35 fee for verification. It's just an added fee on top of the price, which I have never seen when booking hotels. It was still cheapest with the fee for our trip in the area.

The motel needs a large amount of updating, the bathroom shower had tape in the corners, tile floors were cracked, radiator was missing the front shield and full of dust and cobwebs, some blankets had stains and rips in them.

Small but cute property a quick walk to the beach. Upon arrival at 4 pm we met the owner ann who was very nice. The space was a great size but the shower was to dirty to use without sandles and the ac was not encased in the window fully which let bugs into the room.

Location was quiet and room was great. It was close to the pier but far enough away for a relaxed night.

The room looked exactly like it was pictured. We were sent our unit number and key code before we arrived. So when we arrived, we just went in. We had one problem with our key code after we had used it. We sent a text message and it was fixed immediately. Will definitely be going back!

Our stay went very well overall, and everything listed in the description was present upon arrival. The location is convenient and the hotel is pleasantly quiet, which we greatly appreciated. However, the room could have been cleaner — there was still toilet paper in the bowl when we arrived, which suggests a lack of attention to detail during housekeeping. Additionally, several features in the room are outdated and in need of maintenance, such as the main window blind, which was broken and let in too much light. For these reasons, I unfortunately cannot give a 5-star rating — or even 4 stars — despite the good aspects of our stay.
