Property could have been a bit cleaner, I've know that the trains pass by but did not realize so many late at night, tough to sleep. Location is very nice and convenient
Had a great experience on my 2 night stay this past December 2024. Great staff, easy parking and within walking distance to beach, shopping and restaurants!
Had a great experience on my 2 night stay this past December 2024. Great staff, easy parking and within walking distance to beach, shopping and restaurants!
The rooms feel dated and could use some fresh paint. There are broken tiles on the shower wall, and a train passes nearby every three hours, even in the middle of the night, with its horn blaring. However, considering the price, these issues are manageable.
Check in was interesting but loved the whole motel. The operators are super nice and very helpful. I have already booked 2 more stays there.
The location is amazing!
