Think of it as glamping

Just wanted to be on beach and that is the best part of the hotel. Location. Yes it needs some updating. I just look at it as glamping. Electric, ac, bed, shower. Thats all i needed. Oh and we did walk down to Diegos burrito factory and it was very good. Parking really does suck, just unload in their parking lot and go park in the overflow lot. Did the same thing leaving. They did have a frig and microwave which was really helpful. Oh and another thing, the hotel has a vending ice machine. Thats total BS. I understand the hotels problem,but $7 for a bag of ice is ridiculous. I would def stay again.

Liked walking out door right to the beach. Very unhappy with parking mostly due to people eating at sharkeys not staying at motel and others parking in handicapped spaces but not handicapped. Like the motel and area just not the parking.

Manage your expectations

Manage expectations. If you reserve cheapest you can find, cheap is what you get. This stay was about what I expected. Beds were ok. Fairly clean room for a hotel this old and not well taken care of. Was I comfortable enough to trust that the little coffee maker was cleanish? Absolutely not. The balcony hadnt been swept and tracked sand in. The sofa was stained and pretty gross. The exterior was filthy and smelled as bad as it looks. Pros: pool was clean, kids eat free at Sharkey’s, AC worked great, there’s an elevator- although the current inspection expired a year ago, right on the beach, only saw one roach, staff was nice enough. Cons: old and rusty, parking is bad but if you're patient and circle long enough a spot will open, filthy outside, trash everywhere on the grounds and beach, no blankets for sofa bed, linens could use some bleaching. Would I stay here again, maybe if its just a night or two. If you are looking for decent but cheap beachfront this will do but it is NOT a “nice” place to stay. It fills the need when all you need is a place to lay your head and shower.

Great Location, But Needs Maintenance

The hotel has a lot going for it—private beach access, a clean pool, friendly staff, and easy check-in and check-out made for a welcoming start. However, several issues affected the overall experience. There was no breakfast, the toilet was clogged, and no in-room phone made it hard to request help. We also had no towels provided I had to go in person to the lobby to get them, a non-working freezer, and a rusted microwave. Additionally, there was mold in the room and leakage from the ceiling due to water from upstairs. With some attention to maintenance and basic guest needs, this hotel could be a truly great place to stay.

Good luck finding parking at the Reef location it shares a parking lot with shark's and the over flow parking lot is packed with people going to the beach. This location is a little dated, rust holes in the window frame, rusty lamp and ac unit falling off the wall
