We actually didn't get to stay here for our schedules stay due to Expedia not booking this correctly for us. So when we arrived they did not have a room for my family, even though I booked months out. The staff here was nothing but amazing. Sherry from the front office was on the phone with multiple people trying to resolve this for us. We are sad we didn't stay because she was supportive of our needs and tried so hard to find a place to stay, even though everything was booked out. If they treat people who don't even stay there with respect like this, I'd recommend staying here. Expedia is another answer and hoping this doesn't happen to anyone else because it is not fun
The room was clean and the location is excellent. The advertised food nearby is independent of the motel and varies widely. The motel office hours are very limited and was unstaffed even during times it was supposed to be open. More than once guests were searching for staff to check in, out, or get assistance.
Wonderful location. Easy check-in, very friendly front desk staff. Our room was spotless! Very nice assortment of all the necessary toiletries. Would definitely stay here again.

Cute room, friendly staff, close to the beech, clean.
Wonderful location! So close to the pier and we loved the cocktails and food at Chez Jay’s next door! Our room was spacious and clean. I will stay here and again!
The perfect place for our stay. Warm, comfy, had everything we needed, staff very accommodating and great location! Thank you, it was just what we needed!
Lovely clean motel just across the road from the pier and many eateries. Great location, lovely staff, freshly decorated rooms which felt light and airy

Good space for big family on quick trip on a budget. Great location! Fun that the location is used on a tv show and we love the Chez Jay restaurant and bar next door. Funky vintage original style motel across from the beach and pier. Super convenient.
