Bathroom door was off the hinges. Bed spreads were stained and had holes. There were no towels. The room was a bit scary but the staff was very helpful. Honestly it seemed like 2 random helpful dudes were trying to run a hotel that had be closed down. Super cheap so you get what you pay for.

The property is very convenient and the price is very reasonable compared to all the other places to stay. The check-on attendant is very helpful and excellent customer service.

There were no towels in the room. The bathroom door had been scratched up by an animal. There was something that looked like road on the ceiling. And even on our second day when I asked for them just to change out the towels they never did. But the staff was nice and friendly. Which is why it has a three-star rating instead of a 2.

The room was good,although they had stained box springs, rusted doors, warped floors, the building is surrounded by mess,broken down vehicles, and trash. But It was quiet and the restroom was clean.

Holes in walls, unpainted walls, smoke detector missing, transition strip missing from floor, room was very dirty, no towels, toilet paper and soap- this motel should be no higher than 50 dollars, one of the worst stays ive ever encounter, location is good

When we got there the guy at the door was nice, but that was the best part lol no but fr. The room we had we basically had to force the door open because it was messed up like someone kicked it in, there were loose screws in multiple spots around the room like half screwed into the wall or not screwed in at all, the refrigerator wasnt plugged in and still had the sale sticker on it, and i had to fix the tv myself because it didnt work at first. It had 2 remotes 1 was missing the back and the universal remote wasnt programmed to the tv. The pool was the upside. It was descent but next to the pool there was a dog in a room that barked at people passing and there were 2 bottles filled with old cigarette buds sitting outside the room. Not to mention multiple people in the hotel were smoking Marijuana inside and outside there room bc the smell was so strong. Its sad when the best thing in your hotel room is the vanity mirror where you wash your hands at. But you get what you pay for and it was descently close to the beach.

The room was fine for one night. Staff was friendly. Had to go to the front desk to request towels and there was a sketchy person staying there that called me inappropriate names and threw things at our car when we were leaving.

This place was nasty dirty. There were hairs in the sink and shower. Some kind of streak marks on the headboard. My husband and I both slept on top of the covers on towels because it was the only hotel that had an opening we checked around after we saw this.

I was very disappointed. The floors were extremely dirty and the pillow cases too! Plus, the room wasn't properly painted. The door could barely open and close. Not worth staying here at all!

WORST place I've ever stayed! Disgusting! They don't mop the floors, they put blankets on with burn holes in them, the pillows are horrible and the sheets have black stuff all over them. Honestly, THE WORST place I've ever stayed. DO NOT stay here... EVER
