The motel is basic but clean. Comfortable beds. If you're looking for a place to stay overnight, it's fine
Bruce, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Everything was really good and the staff was kind and friendly. The pool area was incredible as well as quiet. The one thing I would say was there were a fair amount of insects in the room
Brian, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Good location off main road. Traffic noise and train whistle was loud. Pool was nice, and check in staff friendly. Lots of restaurants nearby. Beaches close by too
William, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The staff was friendly and accommodating to our requests. The rooms are very dated. The rooms need updating.
Lee, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The owner is very dedicated to the upkeep of the property and maintains
Richard, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Overall, the property is clean and maintained. The rooms are typical of an older style motel. The bathrooms are very cramped and have little place to set things down. Other than that, it is an excellent value.

Run down very basic no personal other then cleaning staff
marjorie, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Good basic accommodation for a short stay. There were a number of flies and mosquitos in the room, because there was a noticeable gap under the door to the room and no screen on the bathroom window which was left slightly open. The A/C worked well, overall fine if you just need a place to sleep for the night.
Rebecca, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

We had issues with the TV the first night. NO refrigerator. Trains pass by ( noisy at night).
Mercedes, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Clean enough. Toilet area too small, cramped. No shelves, towel rods or hooks to hang towels and face cloths to dry. No shelf to put a toilet kit cup of water, nothing. Terribly inconvenient
Buck, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Our TV didn’t work although staff eventually fixed it, very small room, fridge froze everything, there were no free outlets for us to charge phones etc
Barbara, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Not worth the money
Gustavo, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Check in was easy. Staff are very friendly and helpful. After checking in, I pulled back the bedding to check the sheets (it’s a habit) and found that the fitted sheet was covered in hair and dirt. I asked for a new sheet and the office attendant moved us into the room next door. She was super helpful and genuine. Those sheets were clean. The floor, however, was filthy so my boyfriend and I walked around the room in our sandals. The hotel is very outdated and worn, with minimal amenities. It was fine for us because it was just for the weekend and we weren’t planning to stay inside much. Air conditioning worked, plenty of hot water and the mattress was old but comfortable. The price is too high, of course, but it’s competitive to the surrounding properties. The location is great, just down the road from the beach and plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby.
Susan, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

LIghting in room was poor. There were only 8 electrical outlets in the room - 2 for the TV, 2 for the fridge and a/c, and 2 for the lamps. The other two were in the bathroom and unusable to charge phone (wet environment) There was a microwave that was unusable because the electrical cord was too short to reach the outlet unless you put it on the floor and unplugged something else. I asked you to fix our TV the 2nd day and I meant before we left, not after. I wold rate the the worst motel/ I have ever stayed in.
Maribeth A., 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Let’s start with Cons…. It’s July 4th weekend and the pool was not available although it’s listed an available amenity. I only came here because the pool was said to be open. Imagine my surprise when they tell me it is not. 🙄 The TVs in the room did not work. There was no cable, no direct tv, nothing. Pros: Rooms were clean, although there were the one or two bugs. Bathrooms were clean and fresh clean towels were provided. The train did the scare us a few times but it was fine. For the future, you should list on your site or send a message to guests when they reserve that the pool is not working.
Victoria, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

this was the worst hotel I've ever stayed at so much so me and my husband end up cutting our trip early and went home due to how dirty this place was. Everywhere you looked In the room you'd find either a dead bug or alive one. Hair from whoever stayed previous was still in the bed (as well as on the pillows ) when we arrived. Luckily I had an extra comforter in my car so we slept on top of the motels blankets and covered up with our own. The ac was old and didn't even cool anything down at one point the room got to 85 degrees try sleeping in that while 8 months pregnant. And to top it off we attempted to use the pool, as soon as my husband put himself on the stairs the whole structure let go from the wall and began to float in the pool while he's still standing on the stairs we then had to use the ladder at the other end of the pool to get in because the main stairs were so unsafe. We tried to avoid the motel as long as we could the following day because of how nasty it was but we eventually had to go back after being in the sun all day we wanted to rest but looking around the room we both knew that wasn't gonna happen and we agreed to pack our bags and drive the 2 hours home.
Samantha, 2-night trip

Awesome place to stay very enjoyable
