Not worth the cost
The walls were thin and we could hear noises until late in the evening. The beds were also sloppily made, with the bedspread not even being fully tucked under. I was really underwhelmed given the price we paid! Convenient location by the beach though.

Convenient but in need of update
Only bathrooms have been updated. Rest of room and beds are tired and need updated. Noise level was a bit problematic but likely due to festival going on. Breakfast was very good and staff friendly. Motel is really what this is and is conveniently located to shopping, restaurants and bay. All are within easy walking distance
