I have no complaints at all about this property. It’s beach front. It’s affordable. It’s not a resort so don’t expect that. But we stayed in a room next door to my sister with her 3 kids and we never heard a peep out her or her 3 rambunctious boys. If you’re bougie keep scrolling and searching. If your are looking for a place to stay that’s decent, affordable and serves its purpose…this is it. Even has a cute lil kitchenette. We would stay again. ❤️ My biggest “issue” (if you can even call it that - and I can’t because it’s been a trend this trip) is the water pressure in the shower. All in all I rather pay this and stay here pleased than pay $200-$400 to sleep and get sandy and salty with a bunch of kids. Was safe, quiet, comfy….would pick it again no doubt.

Vintage 60's motel

Its an adorable 60's retro motel with some upgrades (renovated bathrooms and locks), a nice size pool, and right on the beach. Sound does carry, so bring earplugs.

This a very old property and it shows it. The rooms are clean but because of age they do not feel it. there was a ever present smell of mildew and the ventilation fan in the bathroom did not work. access to the beach is very convenient.

It's a old model hotel but I love it it's like staying at my grandmother's house but it's clean it's not dirty no bugs no hair everywhere clean sheets clean towels bed is wonderful it is really thick and fluffy and comfortable and they also have recliner chairs in the room not just the chairs that you sit in it's like a studio apartment it's legit like a studio apartment and I love the scenery I love how they set this hotel up. Also there's no smells at all I know some people may complain cuz when we was checking out there was a man that was complaining about his room so I guess it's some that's cleaning some that's may not be but the one I stayed in was clean from the door to the back of the room it was clean I inspect every room I stay in sheets and all mattress at all and it was clean very quiet no noise just the sound of the waves
