Love coming here
Pros:

Friendly people work here. The small size means that room service is fast and very good.

Cons:

It's not directly adjacent to food/shopping places. If you're like me and just want a quiet escape for a few nights, that won't dissuade you. My fridge wasn't very cold, unfortunately, which the owners may want to look into.

Of course I may have just been using it wrong.

A very nice comfortable place to stay with friendly and personable staff.
Pros:

Location is very convenient for restaurants, sightseeing, shopping, walking.

Cons:

Would have liked a second comfortable chair in the room as well as a stool in the sink area to use when putting on makeup at that counter.

Acceptable but won’t be back
Pros:

The location was nice. Close to the beaches, quiet, and not too far from downtown.

Cons:

It needs an update and a good cleaning - old and outdated and not the level of cleanliness I’d expect for the price we paid.

Nice location. Quiet and close to everything.
Pros:

Location is incredible and just a short trip or walking distance to all we needed.

Cons:

Comfort. I hate being in the bed if not sleeping and there was no way to relax in the room without being on the bed. I understand that they couldn’t have added a couch with two queen beds. Probably just uncomfortable for me.

pleasant stay, thank you!
Pros:

The room was clean and nice. The fridge, microwave and table with 2 chairs were nice to have. The bed was comfortable. The fireplace was a nice amenity. The neighborhood is quiet and pretty.

Cons:

There was plenty of hot water in the shower, but for some reason the sink didn't really get hot water, just lukewarm. The wall heater was very loud when it switched on (but you could just use the fireplace, which also gave off heat.) The walls were fairly thin, so you could hear other peoples doors, talking, etc, but luckily it wasn't too bad.

Pros:

The mattress was especially comfortable

Cons:

The wifi password should be noted in printed information in room. We realized we didn't have that information right after the office closed, and we had to wait until morning to find out the password. (Guests need to call the office to obtain the password, and I've never seen this policy anywhere else we've stayed.)

A good value for a mid-size motel. Clean with a comfortable bed. This is not a luxury hotel.
Pros:

It is a clean, comfortable room in a quiet property. Nothing fancy.

Cons:

The decor is a bit dated.
