It was sketchy at first but when you walk into the rooms Honestly everything be clean and i could not have searched for more i highly recommend people to come and stay here close to the beach and the pool was also clean and was heated
Very unfriendly staff. Too expensive for a room with no AC.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Room was clean, but the property is obviously old and in need of updating. Mattress very hard and pillows very flat. No A/C, only a very noisy fan. Front desk staff were friendly.
I have pictures but unable to post on this review. There was 5 cars in the parking lot, they must have given me the smallest room in the room in the motel.
There was just enough space for the double size bed and there was not a right angle to be seen with its odd configuration.
The two windows had bars on them and it abuts a street in a residential area.
The heater did not work
Do NOT book here! They are a scam. My husband and I booked, called to ask about checking in late, and they refused to honor or booking. They were rude when trying to check in.

The tv was not working and, he told me will fix it later on, but he didn’t.
The bathroom even doesn’t have a fan to put the Air ventilator.
