4/10 Fair

3 night stay. No maid service. Good beds at least. Air conditioning was minimal. Thank goodness for ceiling fans. If I go back will stay somewhere else

6/10 Good

Surprised by ratings on here

I felt like I was in Schitt's Creek. Very old, nit updated at all, but close to the beach.
Michelle, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Nasty

The staff was very nice; however, the hotel is very old and dirty. Gross, actually! Great location for the beach though.
William, 1-night trip

Love the retro style and the proximity to both the beach and the Vilano pier.
Tedd, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very clean, steps to the beach. Great value, wonderful staff
Denise, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Even though it's a little outdated the rooms were clean and functional. It's a shame that places like this are few and far between. Hopefully I can plan a stay here next year.
Nigel, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Cute but not well kept

Very cute 1950's retro motel but not well kept. Pool was dirty. Blackout curtains blocked window AC unit so had to keep them open, even at night. Range vent and light not operational. Bed was fairly comfortable. They could really do better - remove the table and chairs with the ashtray outside every room and go non-smoking. Put umbrellas on the tables at the pool.

The room was outdated…. however, if I was traveling with my family &/or wanted to be super close to the beach I would definitely recommend this hotel for the price point!

Tabreshia, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I was told we would get a kings size and queen size bed but only got 2 full size bed. They lie and it seemed for shady people staying there. It was dirty.
Abygail, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

A step back in time! Great motel! Very close to the beach! Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was pretty good. However it was not as clean as some other guests had rated. Still had a great time!
