It's not fancy, but it's a great location, fantastic beach access, nice staff, and affordable. We loved our time here. The kitchen was great and I loved sitting on the shared back deck/porch. And indoor and outdoor pools. Will definitely return.

This was a old 3 story motel, with a luggage elevator. I loved this place the minute I got in my room. I was right on the beach, it's old in a reto way. I would stay here again. The view from the third floor rooms was breath taking. Stay if you can.

I love how close it is to the beach and how every room has an ocean side. Sometimes you can hear street noise from the main drag in our room, however to be fair there was a car show in the park two blocks away. Really love staying here.
