Decent, but needs to charge less.
Pros:

The front desk staff were friendly, the place was clean, and we loved the mini golf course

Cons:

The mattresses are hard, I require plush beds, it would be who of them to get some 2 inch memory foam mattress toppers so that they are available upon request. The sheets felt like a low thread count. I don't like that they also don't offer shuttle to the port. I feel like they should be charging a little above Mothel 6 prices, not Holliday Inn prices. The exterior would also benefit from refurbishing

Good to stay but keep in mind to complimentary breakfast is kind of cheating.
Pros:

Room cleaning or house keeping staff were excellent there is no question about that.

Cons:

Complimentary breakfast was kind of cheating for everyone. They had just serials and juices. Sometime cup cakes and banana with apple.

Wish I would’ve gone somewhere else. Not worth it for the price.
Pros:

Close to the beach

Cons:

It was dirty and the room keys repeatedly stopped working. The walls were very, very thin. The pool was dirty, and the mini-golf course was not maintained

Very good value
Pros:

We didn't expect much for an inexpensive motel near a tourist attraction. We were pleasantly surprised at the helpfulness of the staff, the facilities, and the room.

Cons:

The so called breakfast was not good. They had cold muffins and if lucky they had orange juice and apple juice. We found a roach in our room and our key card kept deactivating so went back to front desk several times to get it fixed. You would think between what they charge and the money they get from the nursing home they are running out of the 3rd floor they would be able to have better food, equipment and amenities.
