The room was clean and the staff was very courteous. Great option for a pre-cruise or pre-flight stay. Not a great place for family with children though; with little to no accommodations or activities for kids.

The room was clean and convenient. The only issue was the main light in the room didn't turn on. Other than that, it was a nice place for the cost.

Towels still had clumps of hair from previous guest, roaches and other quickly appear when food is present. Beds too small. The front desk was very professional, accommodating, and polite. 5 minute drive from the beach. Still overpriced, if cost was $100 would have been more appropriately priced.

You get what you pay for. In the 50’s I bet this was an adorable little motel. These days, she’s showing her age a bit. The staff was excellent, though, so kudos to them for that. The shower smelled slightly like fish, the water almost got warm, and the stream sprayed in no fewer than 29 distinct directions, which, ironically is exactly
how I prefer my showers.
It was clean-ish. Old. Smelled a little funny and had a burn mark in the comforter.
Other than that, though, the bed was comfortable and I needed a place to sleep. It wasn’t my normal type of choice but it was better than the airport floor. Barely.

The 2-day stay was really good. The only problem was the refrigerator door was a bit broken and it was leaking upon arrival to the room. Thank you for the stay.

Not to bad!
Great over night stay! It’s not the Hilton or the Marriot but it’s clean and the bed was comfortable. Great nights sleep when your husband wants to act a fool on a FRIDAY NIGHT 😜
