The accommodations were exactly what we expected and wanted. With the exception of a large Roach that came out on my second day, that I had to kill. The stay was perfect. We were on a fishing excursion and it was the right place at the right time for the right price. Really appreciated the stay, and would consider staying again under the same circumstances.

This was a super cheap room on a beautiful beach, close by restaurants. For a one night stay great! I was nervous about leaving my suitcases in the car so brought them in. It's a little seedy, but it's a cheap room. That's what you get. All and All, I would stay here again. Your just a few steps from the beach!
