The motel rooms we stayed in were clean and comfortable but very dated. Great price!! Person working the desk spoke 5 languages!

I think this motel is underrated. Its location is convenient. The owner was very nice, the room was clean and the beds were comfortable for us. We stayed for two nights and really enjoyed the sleep. The building is a bit old but all facilities are well maintained. With the price I will give it a 5 star.

Simple, clean, friendly. Nice view of the water - you can hear the wind in the trees and the waves at night. Decent bed. Love the retro lamps. Floors and paint recently redone. Good location. Good value. I usually stay in upscale B&Bs but ended up here due to unforeseen circumstances and I am glad it worked out that way. Nothing fancy about it but I would absolutely stay here again.
