The outside of this hotel is adorable. The room itself was doable for what we paid, but the thing that was not okay was having a streamline of ants in the bathroom, and bed bugs. We tried to talk to the front desk once we saw the bedbugs to potentially get a different room but they were already closed, so we immediately booked a different hotel and got out of there. The next morning we went back to check out early and explain what we found and they just didn’t seem apologetic or even cared. Such a shame cause it is a cute place just infested.

It is an old and outdated property. Not even a TP holder. The night stand was filthy. Towels were really rough and not really clean. The only good thing was the location to beaches. Would not stay again or even recommend.

The property did not have much space for my dog to go potty, but it is totally pet friendly, otherwise. The room was the tiniest I'd ever been in but it had everything we needed! King bed, microwave, fridge and a teeny bathroom with a nice shower. To top it off a great price to be so close to the beach.

I like the old hotel feel- room was clean and very comfortable- close to walking to get food or beverages- what I didn't like is the owners has puppy dogs barking and whining in the middle of the night- one night it was 4am!!!! The traffic noise during the night on the highway was ridiculous-all night long- They should put up sound proof curtains

Way too sketchy of a place. Heard something that sounded like a gunshot close by. The door was not sealed, and there was no hot water. Didn’t look at all like the pictures online. Seriously, unless you’re a kung fu master, avoid this place at all cost.

You get what you pay for. This place is adequate and does have some downsides, like the sheets are pretty itchy and everything is a little old and rundown. However with the price it’s clean and in a good part of town. The cleaning lady (we didn’t get her name) is AMAZING and really helped us out when we were in a bind. Overall friendly and decent for the price.

Had a couple bugs in the room, but you get what you pay for. Staff were attentive and very nice. Close to 7-eleven, a gym (day passes are $20), and a couple restaurants. Walkable, and the room was decent.

Functional

It’s super cute on the outside. The room was cheap and it was functional (for sleeping and showering, not enjoying) and that’s about it. If you get back to your room too late at night, you might not get a parking spot. There are some people who might have extended stays at the hotel… And you might not want to have your room next to theirs because they stand outside smoking cigarettes and they keep their TV really loud. Just saying. But if you don’t need any luxury in your life, then this motel is for you!
