The property is showing its age but the room was clean and functional. Staff were friendly and it was only a quick walk into town, to the beach, or to tourist spots and hikes. Good value for the money.

What an excellent find! Clean, and pretty decor. The room was so big and spacious, with big bench spaces, both in room and bathroom. Great bed and shower! Pool area looked nice but didnt get to use it. Two min walk to the main shopping and restaurants, so no need to look for parking and parking fees!

Small old school drive up to room motel. It suited our needs as we really only needed a bed at night. We were out during the days and dinner times. Budget property, close to main shopping, walking distance to most amenities, beach & shops.
