The place was nice and near the beach that was be@utiful.
Pros:

It was comfortable and the beach was beautiful.

Cons:

We had a problem with the TV. It was on when we got there but the volume was too low to hear. We were not able to get the captions working. The remote was probably needing new batteries or replaced. We left and went to a movie. When we returned the sound was very loud and could not be adjusted. No one was available to fix the tv or change our room. I feel that we should be compensated for no adequate TV

Can't wait to go back!
Pros:

Loved the location! So close to the beach and easy access. There were lots of places to rinse the sand off. The staff was amazing, and so kind. Love the café attached. The pools were great. Clean and fresh rooms. The beds were perfect as well.

Cons:

Parking at night. It has nothing to do with the hotel. There is a very popular restaurant attached to the hotel and patrons will park in the hotel parking lot.

So many reasons to stay here.
Pros:

This is a cute motel directly across the street from the beach. Fantastic location, comfortable bed, clean, within walking distance to many restaurants. They left sweet bread in the room for us. There’s warm coffee in the lobby during office hours and they let me borrow a book to read. The beach is gorgeous, too! If you are vacationing, this is a great place to stay.

Cons:

The wifi was not good. I had trouble even using my phone to look at maps or social media. My husband planned on working while there, but the internet was useless for that. So make sure you are going to the beach to get away from it all- not to stay connected.
Probably a fluke, but the water heater went out the last day, so we didn’t get a shower that day before leaving. As we checked out they said they reset the water heater and we could stay longer to shower (which is nice), but we were already packed up because check-out is at 10AM. I feel like that is too early for check-out. Despite these things, I would definitely return because the price was good, location is great, and it was clean and comfortable- especially if I wanted to be completely separated from ordinary life.
