I'm not sure why this motel rates so high. The rooms always smell bad from people smoking in them, everything is terribly worn down. It's not very nice at all.

Good area with a great view of the boats and pier. The service was very friendly. The room however is worse for wear. You get what you pay for. The toilet seat was broken, the room smelled of smoke, the bed was dented from the middle. Floors were dirty. House keepers were super nice though. Area is in a safe side of town and as a single female I felt safe.

The rooms are old and smell. The refrigerator didn’t work, The air didn’t work neither did the TV for the little time we were there. Upon check in the staff was extremely nice.. the next day I asked a lady if we could get brochures from the lobby since it’s always locked and she told me NO .. people were loud at all hours .. it seemed more like a hang out spot than a resting place but you get what you pay for..

The staff I met upon arrival was very kind. However, the area surrounding the property made me feel unsafe. I didn’t end up spending the night because of this, but I could tell that they do their best with the property, all things considering.

The room was clean and super basic. NO REFRIGERATOR OR MICROWAVE. NO HAIR DRYER AND NO COFFEE POT. Split AC unit worked but was super loud. The staff was professional but not super friendly. Parking was far from the room and the parking lot was extremely dirty with litter and garbage lying on the ground. Most areas of parkingvlot were dark and did not feel safe. Felt that at $120 a night the room should of come with some basic amenities such as a refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, and haur dryer. There were 2 bars of soap near the sink, but NO shampoo and conditioner. Luckily I had packed my own!! Very very basic room. Good for 1 night. Bed was rock hard. 2 small pillows provided. I will look elsewhere next time for accommodations.
