What you expect from a small town motel. Room was clean and beds comfy. A great location across from the beach. I stayed in peak season and the room was expensive for what it was. Out of season I'm sure it's much cheaper. Free wifi and washing facilities was a bonus

I booked for 4 nights recently, after having stayed before. Pleasantly surprised to find it refurbished with all new bedding and furniture and curtains. Lots of pillows and bed coverings.
