Cute little room

We had a family emergency so we didnt get to stay at the hotel but it was a cute litte room.
Nicole, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The rooms were so cute! So clean. Love the Monopoly names! I could use a little more parking because it’s hard when you have more than one car for your party. The lady that stayed on the property was so nice and checked with us to see if we needed anything and that we had everything we needed. Not a long walk to the beach. Would definitely stay again!
Amanda, 2-night trip

Loved it and will stay there again!

2/10 Poor

Didn’t end up staying here I found something else

Would give no stars if I could. Horrible experience with these guys!!!! They refused to give me a refund after saying they would fully refund me I still have the text messages. Getting in contact with a person to help us was hard they have no office. We went to check in the door was open, the sheets for the kids beds were missing, not to mention the mattress have no covers protectors they were dirty and gross and had black hairs all over them. we had no towels, the floors were dirty and my truck was bigger than the building. The other people checking also were saying how unhappy they were and the doors were open and I heard a lady say “did they even clean the room!?” So I’m not the only one upset. I watched them drive away to find another place to stay as well. I did not stay here I stayed somewhere else that was much better and luckily had openings.

It was a bit run down, but it was clean and quiet, and easy walking distance to the beach.

On get away

Very clean very friendly only thing is the bed is not very comfortable
David, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved the fenced in backyard to the cabin with private hot tub and fire pit and grill, we enjoyed being close to the pool, and just a short walk to the beach so we were far enough from the noise. The bed was not very comfortable, but otherwise the cabin decor and amenities were great. We will definitely be back!

too expensive for what you get and not in walking distance to the beach. Parking near the beach is $25.00 additional.
Richard, 1-night trip

Pleasant stopover

Pleasant stopover, staff were accommodating and helpful. As for accommodations, think simple cabin that's been nicely painted. Has fridge, microwave, table - all the basics. Lower comfort rating because the beds were well past their expiration date (creaky "box spring", thin, worn out mattresses). Still, I'd stop here again for a quick stopover.

The pool is the highlight

The pool was really nice. Off-street, free parking. 15-Minute walk to the Pier. Those are the highlights. The room was pretty smelly and dirty, and the beds were wildly uncomfortable. Rooms had different appliances available, some have coffee makers, some have microwaves. Will look elsewhere for the next trip.

4/10 Fair

While it is clear that some thought was put into the decor of the rooms, the room we stayed in was very small with no curtains on the windows in either the bathroom or bedroom leaving us feeling like we had little privacy. The shower also ran lukewarm. While it met our basic needs for the night, it was a pricey room for the experience
Casey, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Room or Hobbit Hole?

They said that we had an Ecno Room, and that's what it was. A bed and a shower. There was no Closets, and no Burrows. We had to put our cloths on the floor, and then there was not enough room to move around the room. To be honest, this was not the room for us.

Needs a deep clean

Very dirty. Layer of grime across all the blinds and the bathroom had not been cleaned. Mould on the panels on the ceiling and extremely noisy area.

Close to beach

The room I was given (room 4) was pretty dated. The bathroom was especially out of date. There's a lot of noise here from the busy road outside. I got a really good price, so I didn't complain. The bed was comfy, and the mini fridge worked well. The pool was nice and seemed to be well maintained. The beach is about a 3/4 mile walk, so you can walk to the beach from here to avoid paying for parking. Overall, I was happy with this stay for what I paid (less than $100 a night). If the price was higher, I probably would've went somewhere else.

Dissapointed

The check in process was perfect and the owners were great very personable. We did not use the pool but was clean. Unfortuneately the room was not. *No hot water *bathroom door would not close *no trash barrell in room *no blinds or curtains to close on windows *lots of fruit flys or nats came in through the bathroom window even when closed. I would not suggest for a week stay we were in town for quick visit one night but still was not were I would stay again. I would suggest only if in a pinch and need some place to stay for the night I dont usually write a review but stay was not pleasant. Again the owners were great the room was just not for us.

6/10 Good

Our cabin was not ready at check-in time; the manager stated she couldn't remember cleaning it in the AM and would clean it in 20 minutes so come back then. She had NOTHING in-hand (cleaning supplies, linen, etc.) and when we got back, it did not smell nor look clean (the floor was dirty and there was half eaten chicken in the fridge). She also tried to get us to pay twice for the 1st half of our stay, saying Ortbitz didn't send payment. Overall, probably wouldn't recommend as it's clear she's only out for money... but a pretty cute motel with a nice pool and nearby everything for what we paid.
