    Would not recommend this place. I requested for a different room since the door handle were broken prior to checking in. Property owner and his wife were rude and unprofessional about fixing the door handle and wanted to charge me extra for this.

    My only issue was waiting a while to check in even though it wasnt late, and no one there in the morning to vheck out with a sign saying "please dont ring bell to check out", which of course lags the return of the depost (took 6 days).

    This was a good place to stay for a simple nights stay based on value. The room was nice and clean. You could hear the nearby road but the air conditioner dulled the noise. There were only 2 outlets so we had to unplug the microwave to charge our phones. Overall, worth the stay and would stay here again.

    This place was dirty in every corner and crevice, front office smells terrible like it hasnt been cleaned in decades, very difficult to get to, check in was very slow and i was charged unexpected and unexplained fees, bed didnt have full size pillows, only mini pillows, i had to use my own batteries for the tv remote as none were provided, no lock on door, dirty bathroom, very few amenities, no do not disturb sign, paper thin walls and ceilings with very loud neighbors drinking all night, bad area of town felt very unsafe, would not recommend.

    Although the property has been upgraded it still needs a bit more work. The doors are run down and the bathroom windows were moldy. Otherwise, vary clean. Good value for the money

    Room for money totally. Management's lack of courtesy and professionalism was a big drawback. Firstly, we asked for an additional pillow and was told there must be another one in the room. There was not, and he proceeded to enter room and verify we were missing a pillow. Next morning, we checked out only to be told our cash deposit could not be returned until housekeeping arrived to verify condition of room. I explained police would be notified if my deposit wasn't returned immediately. Magically $100 was pushed through the open portion of the window. Crazy.

    It's a basic clean motel, suitable for a one night stay, the unfortunate thing were the ants in the bathroom and in the sink outside the bathroom, when I told the desk they said we're close the the beach, that happens.

    Room is updated and looks nice, but there was hair from a previous guest in my shower, direct tv box only worked if you positioned it in specific way so the cables connected correctly, AC was very noisy and the fan wouldn’t stay on even when programmed to. My room smelled like smoke because even though the property says non smoking, the guy a couple doors down was chain smoking and looked like he stayed there long term. Another guy was working on his car in the parking lot like it was his garage… overall the room looked nice but everything still felt like motel 6.

    Let me tell you about this woman at the front desk. Absolutely rude and inconsiderate. Based on the review I read AFTER THE FACT, I probably won’t get my $100 deposit back. We did NOT get the room we booked. The room we got was comparable with a room at a motel 6. The cleaning staff was constantly asking when we were leaving when we had multiple days left. The lighting consists of individual switches for individual lights to provide ambience in the room. For example, if there are 6 lights in the room, there are 6 light switches in the room in the most inconvenient spots imaginable. Flicking some actually caused back pain because they were so low to the ground. The only outlets we could use to charge our phones were by the sink, and whatever we could salvage on our own, ie, unplugging the microwave. Book anywhere but here. I wouldn’t trust her as far as I could throw her. Did I mention we were also given a room that reeked of drugs and Marlboro short cigarettes? -10/10. If that wasn’t enough, our room keys were on a timer. We went thru 4 room keys throughout our stay. We had 3 guests total and we were given 1 room key. Not 3. 1. If you book after reading this, I’m gonna have to assume that comfort isn’t what you’re looking for.

    So it was cool they moved us from the second floor to the first since it was just stairs and we had just gotten back from all day at Disney . The room looked “ newly renovated “ but it had no storage and the bed was on some type of metal contraption that you can hear sitting on the bed or just moving around . There was a huge Blackwidow spider in the bathroom window that the property owner came and killed but made it seem like it was no problem. The shower head wasn’t seated correctly so it sprayed everywhere and al the soap and towels were in the sink area away from the shower area… oh and the tv was busted… we should have just stayed in the hotel were were previously in and extended our stay there
