Best bang for your buck!
This is a budget hotel, but the front desk lady Rena made you feel so welcome and like you were staying with family. We'll be back!

Great little old school hotel.
If you are into cheaper rates, easy access to places, not so uptight and more low-key comfortable hotels then this is the place to stay. This is old school hotel (I personal enjoy hotels more like this). The staff is friendly especially the manager, she was fantastic woman. You are walking distance to liquor store, a coffee shop and one of the better bars in PCB (The Salty Goat). The beach is literally across the street. The only thing I recommend is bring a coffee maker if you are someone that drinks coffee before 7 am.

You get what you pay for. Location and front office lady was the two good things. Other than that you just get a bed to sleep and a bathroom to take showers. That's all

Dissatisfied customer
Small room. No phone, coffee pot, cups, bath cloths in room had to go to front desk and beg for bath cloths and blanket for bed. Bathroom didnt have a door! Front door had a 2 inch gap under it. Tv in 2 of our 3 rooms did not work. Pictures did not match motel, description said cafe and bar in resort, it did have a bar but nobody working it as it was just an abandoned bar and no food offered for sale. Very dissatisfied with rooms and service in general. Will never book at this motel again!

For the price it was exactly what was expected. Older rooms, poor upkeep. It was clean, the outside area behind the fence was super cute. The location was great and the beds were comfortable.

Staff was very nice. Building is very old. Definitely needs remodeling. Requested to stay upstairs due to heavy traffic downstairs in which they were able to accommodate. Stayed for two nights.

No hot water, no hand soap, no hand towels & no working TV.
Room was dirty and had to be cleaned by front desk attendant before I would even consider staying. No amenities. WiFi did not work. Once again Expedia failed. The pictures and description was nowhere near what the property actually was. Never again!

The location was great!! Certain staff members weren’t the friendliest on Sunday morning. The place wasn’t the cleanest but overall the location made it durable.

The air conditioner operated like a fan instaed of air. Room was about 80 degrees the whole time. A gap at the bottom of the door did not help matter. One of the light switches wasn't attached to the wall properly. The room was clean but smelled strongly of the cleaner.

This is where you stay if you are broke and absolutely can't do any better. Online Photos are very misleading. Needs to be renovated and upgrade
