The room was perfect for what we needed: close to the beach & no cooking in. We are breakfast & lunch in the room and dinners were at local restaurants — all within walking distance! Effie & Ana were great hosts & Max the parrot was a cool feature. I thin I used my van twice during the week, since we were able to walk wherever we needed. We would stay here again.

Owners were very helpful and a nice couple. The room had everything we need for our 3 day stay. Only complaint I would have is the tvs werent smart tvs so you couldn't use Netflix or anything like that and the pool closed at 5pm. Overall a nice stay.

Great experience! Some of the reviews I saw scared me but it was totally fine. No it hasn’t been remodeled any time lately, but who cares! You can’t beat it for the price. The owners were so incredibly kind. They let me park my car the morning I got there so I could go to the beach even though check in wasn’t for several more hours and they let me do the same the day I checked out. Everything in the room was clean and the pool was well maintained. I even lost my key at one point and they were so understanding and only charged me a very small fee. Super close to the beach, boardwalk, and convention center. Totally recommend!

Would stay again, easy walk to the beach, the stove in the kitchen did not work, toilet would get clogged for no reason, there was steps to get to our room. It was kept clean, had a nice outdoor balcony, compared to other nearby motels this one is a top favorite
