In all my years of traveling this has been the worse motel I’ve ever been. The motel and the property looked very unkept. The room was so run down and incredibly dirty!!! I had to ask for another room as the first room the AC filter was black and was hardly working. We had bugs crawling on the carpet and multiple pubic hairs left in the shower. As I was complaining at the office another woman came in to complain that she had just checked in and her room looked like it was never cleaned. The second room was somewhat better but still dirty. The door to the room was barely able to open and close it felt very unsafe. It was also hard to find a parking spot at night. The pool was the only thing we enjoyed it was actually nice but there’s no towel you can use.

Room 18 needs a curtain or blind in the bathroom window. It made me feel unsafe so I put a towel on it to cover it up. I felt it was very tacky and weird there was a window rod but not curtain. Also the lamp on the left side of the bed did not work. Need to fix that.
Very clean and Friendly staff. Close to all the Beaches and Fun

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
If I give worse than a one star I would. Room wasn’t clean women staff was rude. Ac didn’t work tv didn’t work staff living on site was loud. Horrible experience! I asked for my money back and got told no refunds after checking in. They said they would clean the room and half done the job.
Never stayed there, l could not traval because of family emergency, tried to cancel days befor but was told that they didn't care. l still got charged for the room and they save on house keeping.
Small, simple room, immaculately clean, and a terrific value for this area. Nice outside area. . .Bathroom use is very awkward since there is no space for anything. A shelf or two would be a big improvement.
Basic accommodations with affordable price. Exactly what we needed so no complaints really. Facilities could use more updating but it appears they have started. Only there to sleep. Clean and safe is what matters. Housekeeper and her little dog were precious!

Liked: Cleanliness
L’hôtel est propre et abordable. Il y a u e piscine et beaucoup d’arbres qui agrémentent la cours.
Very nice people that work there , room was nice clean the shower worked great, the location was very accessible to the highway, shops and restaurants in walking distance, had really nice time
Older motel with some upgrades. Good price compared to other nearby motels.
Better lighting, shelves in the bathroom and more electric plugs for your electronic devices would be simple inexpensive improvements.
Place was great to sleep! Pool was clean. Room was clean. Grill area was nice and plenty of outside shade and sitting areas. We will stay here again. Housekeeper was really nice and was busy making sure everything was tidy.
