First thing I want to do is thank my wife for not killing me for booking a room here. I don't know what happened since the last folks reviewed this place, but I guarantee if you were driving by and saw it, you would keep going. We drove up and there was furniture in the parking stalls, a mobile home... More

My friends almost killed me (I made the reservations) when we arrived. From the outside this place seems like Bates Motel..yes, the place is a million years old.! BUT, our stay was great! Many other harbor area hotels are noisy and parking is a hassle. Not here, the interiors are clean, recently upgraded, and great for a night on your... More

My friends and I had such a great time here. The room was clean, smelled nice, spacious and the Room came standard with mini-fridge and microwave. Employee I encountered was helpful and nice. I would definitely recommend anyone to stay here if they're on a budget because the location could not be more ideal.

The hotel has free wi-fi, the rooms have a kitchenette with fridge and microwave, the bathroom and bedrooms are spacious. For the rest, the place is very run-down. Despite the several amenities, what I didn't like about this hotel is that it is very poorly kept, everything is old and, being cheap in the first place, it looks very shabby.... More

It was quiet and it is close to the ocean front (by car) and many restaurants, stores, etc. When I called about booking the reservation the woman was very abrupt w/me on the phone but when I stayed the woman who worked there was extremely pleasant and helpful about directions, etc. It is definitely a $50/night motel, nothing spectacular. But... More

We have stayed at this simple spot before when we just need a spot to sleep over night. The hotel is spartan at best, but will do in a pinch and is cheap. This time the hotel was the same. BUT, I left a bottle of wine, a bag with 4 huge home grown cucumbers and a whole flat of... More

The room was spacious and clean, definitely a great deal for the price. Although the bathroom was a bit tight, the shower was newly tiled and the water pressure just fine. Management was very friendly. Location-wise, it only took minutes to drive to (and get free parking) in the downtown area where all the nice restaurants are.
