Motel not hotel, but clean and affordable!
Courteous service, great price, close to shopping and not far from the beach. This is a motel like place, not a hotel. So clean but old, no special services you might expect at hotels vs motels.

Inn has a swimming pool. Place is old but still decent and the room has a microwave and a frig. It is decent because it has the basic amenities for a stay.

10/10 Exceptional

Affordable Stay with Room for Improvement
I found this place to be very affordable, and overall, it was a great experience. The only concern I had was a noticeable smell of cigarettes, which could be improved by implementing a no-smoking policy. Aside from that, it felt safe and welcoming. Considering the price, it was definitely a worthwhile stay!

6/10 Good

It was not terrible considering the price. The gentleman that checked us in was very friendly and helpful. Initially the room they gave us was clean and nice. However the lock was broken and we had to move. Second room was pretty gross but my youngest is autistic and likes to run off so the chain lock was a must. While I was not impressed with the room overall it was an ok place.
