This is one of the cleanest motels I have ever been in. It was newly remodeled in late 2024 and remains spotless. It is walking distance, with stairs, to the beach with a longer walk to main part of town. The policies of early and late arrival are rigid. We arrived at 3:10 and although our room was ready we would be charged $20 for the 20min. prior to check in. Never have I encountered this before. The locks on the door quit working at 10:58 before the11am check out. I highly advise an upstairs room as the noise from our rude upstairs "neighbors" kept us up two nights. The floor has minimal noise reduction properties. But with all that said it was a nice room, in a beautiful area and I would stay there again.

We enjoyed this hotel and would stay here again. However, our room, Room 108, was next door to the laundry facility so was intermittently noisy and the was no view due to it being tucked away in a corner. But, that said, the room was very clean, they take pets (Yea!), and we enjoyed the fire pit.

For a quaint remodeled property they did a nice job. The rooms are small but adequate. Not all rooms have an ocean view and we did not see any paths that led to the beach below. The beds are medium hard. So if you're used to a pillow topper mattress, these aren't for you. No closet. Walking distance to nice restaurants in the area.

Very quiet and clean. No riff-raff. Worth the money! AC worked great and the king bed was awesome! The bathroom shower was beautiful, and the full-size shampoos, conditioner, body wash, handsoap, and lotion were a nice touch! Even the free makeup remover wipes were a very nice detail. I have not seen that at any other hotel before. Well done!
