For a budget hotel, the rooms are very clean, spacious, and updated! The walls are a little thin, but we did not have an issue with any excessive noise. This was our second time staying, and we will be back!

Good location across the street from sunset beach. QUIET. Decent rooms but build up of dust and dirt on floors and baseboards. Did not like the overhead shower. Not a nice shower.Room service came and replenished towels daily which was nice. I also had to burn a scented candle because room smelled like pine sol.

We took the kids and grandkids on trip here and stayed 3 nights. Was an inexpensive room for a. Cost conscious trip. Upon arriving at the hotel I was not impressed as the hotel looked older but upon going up the stairs the rooms were beautiful. The staff was super helpful and polite during our stay. The walk to the ocean is just over a quarter mile but could be seen from the 3rd floor balcony. Would definitely stay here again!

The rooms are nice, very clean. Comes with microwave, refrigerator and coffee pot. Down part about this motel. No elevator. So my elderly 81yr old mother had to climb 4 flights of stairs. Also its in front of Highway 1, which is busy. So to walk to beach its only min walk.
