Basic motel needs were met. It’s dated but you can’t beat the property being right on the bay. Sit and enjoy the views.

The room was spacious and clean. Furniture is outdated, but sturdy. The beds were comfortable. The owner is so pleasant and helpful with recommendations. It was a perfect stop for an overnight visit to the area and you can't beat the view!

Cleanliness is the most important thing to me and it was definitely very clean. However, the property needs a lot of work and it is seriously outdated.
The staff is very friendly and accommodating and I know they try hard to keep everything up

The motel is right on the bay with a nice grassy area and seating, great views of bay. The room itself could definitely be updated but the bed was very comfortable and the shower was good
