Horrible service and rooms.
This was our second time booking this hotel. The first time we checkout same day and stayed at another hotel because the room we booked online for our anniversary was misleading description. It was a horrible suite. On this stay we got checked in and were giving room keys and when we got to the room, the door was wide open and the room yet was cleaned from last guest. We got new a new room and explained my last vist just a couple yesrs prior and manager didn't seem to care. The new room was clean but the tv furniture was in terrible shape. The room has no closet to hang clothes, no iron, and only 2 pillows. The room smelt like an somebody stayed there for a long stay. Stains were everywhere on the carpeting. All i could imagine is that there were probably bed bugs but obviously couldnt tell. I just felt gross out. The outside of the property looks very nice and bathroom was decent. I will never stay here again.

Room was clean but small and nothing special. Their "garden" wasn't very well kept. Continental breakfast made me go straight to McDonald's for a breakfast burrito.

Beautiful little town!
This was a nice place. Our room was on the backside where it looked like repairs were being done. There was a mattress leaned against the wall. The reception was nice at check in and there was a key drop for check out. The room was clean and nice but the bed was too firm for me. Overall a nice place really close to the beach etc.

This is an older motel but was surprisingly clean and conveniently located right on the main road. The staff was nice and brought extra pillows right away. Our only complaint was there was a sewer smell coming from the bathroom. We kept the fan on all night and the door closed, which helped to keep it from the rest of the room. Breakfast was very basic. Overall it was fine for an overnight stay.

Excellent location and customer service. The gardens on the property were beautiful and the parking and dog area were convenient. The room was small but decent. The bathroom and shower were spotless but the carpets were pretty filthy and stained. We stayed here for a couple of days of hiking and beach time and we would definitely stay here again.

Loved it was a dog friendly motel. Basic breakfast options are also great to have along with parking right in front of your room. Wish the rooms were a bit cleaner.
