Property is very old. Rooms have been updated. Pavement near breakfast room is full of potholes and is very unsafe for anyone in a walker/cane or wheelchair. Breakfast was provided but not very good. Property is very convenient to transportation and attractions. Price was reasonable.

Not recommended at all. I made a reservation according to the beautiful pics they have. The motel is in a bad area and the overall look is no way like the pics and much less the smell of mold in their rooms. I had to immediately go back to the front desk and the staff said no problem my manager willl refund you. It was a lie. They didnt and manager never responded to me. They kept my $140 for one night.

Online photos and reviews are grossly minsinformation. This was a very lower class motel. And it’s wrong that it’s presented online as different. It’s a dirty motel. Not a villa. And not 4 star. So much so, we didn’t even stay. We checked out immediately. We got another hotel. We were told we needed to pursue refund through this internet broker … who said they will not refund anything g as we needed to go through the hotel. After multiple attempts to pursue both., realize neither are doing anything. each effectively use each other to hedge responsibility. I advised I would never stay at the hotel, not book with this internet site nor the hotel (motel) again.

warning… they have trolleys and buses that drive-through in front of your door that beep the horn starting at 8:30 in the morning every single day for every 10 minutes they beep their horn in front of an old tree… if you plan on getting away from children and sleeping in this is not the hotel for you.

I brought my woman here to rekindle things and this place was a great choice with beachside dining and delicious drinks. We roasted marshmallows and enjoyed the hot tub after hours. We were able to tan on the balcony before the sun went down. Local shops everywhere to find anything you may need on your trips away. Would recommend this place to any friend or family. The cost of everything was fair.
