Room was ok. There was a layer of dust on the vent in the bathroom and what looked like caulk in the toilet seat. The hallway reeked of pot, was poorly lit and dingy. A $50.00 cash deposited was required at check in

Liked: Cleanliness

It was alright

We stayed 1 night so we could go to the dunes. The check in was good and quick. You do have to put a $50 deposit down which was fine but not mentioned until we got to the hotel. The surrounding area was pretty sketchy, the A/C was broken felt like it was about 75 in the room so it was pretty warm, the maids clean at night and you can hear the vacuum and everything thru the door. Wasn’t a bad room was very clean but bring a fan if you like to sleep in a cool room!

I asked for Absolutely no smoke room and I got it. Room was splendidly clean utilities in there in perfect working order. Lobby is clean. The Third party operable soft drinks dispenser, needs to be better supervised. It sucked up my bills gave me change but no drinks. In totality the motel has my thumb up 👍

Rosalia

Liked: Staff & service
The one thing I really liked is that there were no bed bugs. However, there is a pool, an outside pool. Our stay was well received and had great encounters with the staff. They were accommodating and our stay wasn't too bad. The room could have used some maintenance, the water pressure was a bit low. There was some fixtures missing and the bath tub was painted, therefore making it a bit slippery and while taking a shower, the paint would fall off. If just staying for an overnight trip, depending on your choice of bells and whistles, it's a good stay. If you plan on staying longer and are picky, it's not for you. It's in a great location for shopping and restaurants.

Number of issues. Very dirty smells like dog and cat piss everywhere.The tvs might or might not work, that also includes the refrigerators. The lock on the doors might or might not work. Someone’s kid was playing behind the desk so the attendant had to tend to that instead of checking me in at a convenient time. Never a good experience after times of trying to give it a chance.
