It just seems this place was washed out a bit. I know its a motel and all, but small things make the trip better. For example, the bathrooms do not have fans. Small things like seeing the ceiling dirty, almost like it had mold that was painted over wasn't great.
The room was newly rennovated, but apparenty by a non-professional as the flooring did not meet up with the bedding and you could see the green underlay. The air conditioner does not look like it was cleaned in a while. So just small things like that in the room were slight annoyances. To be fair, we had just come from a 3* model to this 2* motel and perhaps were expecting too much as the previous place was immaculate.
The good is that this model does in fact sit right on the beach. The bedding was clean and the room got the job done. I just would not advise this room as a "romantic" get away lol, but more a beach bum paradise.
The area around the model wasn't that nice though. It looked like the main building was falling into dis-repair and the model had the whole main building sealed off, curtained all the windows. It just looked ugly.
There were other small things like old used cars in the back of the parking lot, an old looking defunct ice cream truck completely packed with bags of empty pop cans and the such, looked almost like a exceptionally efficient homeless person was hoarding pop cans in an old truck.
I took a small walk over to the Coast hotel like 2 doors down and wished I had booked there.
