Location is perfect
Cute little ocean front motel. I was attending a conference nearby at another oceanfront hotel and it was lovely to be able to walk along the beach each morning and evening as my “commute.”

Great place to stay for pier fishing
This is a great little place to stay. It is an older property but our room was very clean. They have covered parking and it is right next to a great fishing pier. We also walked over to Sharks Bar and Grill for dinner.

Nice, quaint little hotel on the beach.
Staff was friendly and helpful, our room was clean and had a view of the ocean and the pier. Covered parking was a plus, keeping car out of hot sun. Would definitely stay again in the future.

Great motel with tight parking garage.
We had a great stay and will definitely return. We luckily didn't have a problem with parking, because the motel was not at full capacity, but it is extremely tight quarters to park onsite, so I would not bring a large vehicle there.

You could see the ocean from the balcony. It’s was steps away/easy to access. Lovely older building with parking for the residents underneath.

For being on the beach in a central location you cant beat the price. Overall stay was good. It is an older hotel that needs updated but again a good price. The second shift manager was friendly. The first shift manager appeared to really not care. The room coffee pot was gross with scum floating in water. I informed the male first shift manager and he had no reaction or response. Finally i found a very helpful cleaning staff that removed the coffee pot from the room.

Great overall stay
It was a beautiful view. Right on the beach. Lots of space in the room. Loved that we had a full size fridge and a small stove. Comes with dishes, paper towels, cleaning supplors, extra blankets and towels. The only thing i could complain about is the bed and pillows where super hard. Perfect if you like hard bedding, but not for our family. Other that everything is perfect. Also, there is a pier directly beside the hotel.
