Great stay! The only complaint is that you can’t get early check in due to it being a smaller motel and if you want to check out before 11am you have to wait till at least 9am because that’s when the staff gets there. Other than that we loved the location for beach access and couldn’t beat the price for a quick summer beach trip.
