Do Not Recommend Stay

The room was not condusive for anyone who had health issues. The ceiling had water dripping from it & black stains. My bed linens were damp & the floor was also wet. I arrived late in the evening & left the following morning. Because I have asthma & an autoimmune disease, the room was a toxic & inhabitable. The desk clerk didn't speak English well & I was told that I would be refunded for my charges. A month later, I am having to dispute it.

Good price not a good room

Every time you requested something, they always said they didn’t have it like more coffee not enough outlets in the room we had a flood under the sink, but they fixed it. However, the outlet in the bathroom did not work. They said they fixed it, but it still did not work. We had to go buy a power cord to accommodate our phones, etc.. love the beach and the access and the view

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.
