Very Good

Great reasonably priced place to stay. Clean and so close to everything. Staff was great. Loved how quiet it was and such a beautiful spot to watch the sunsets and sunrises. Worth the money.
Very clean rooms, great staff, beautiful property and reasonable prices. If you’re looking for fancy, this is not it. The vibe is more retro and I loved it! Will definitely be back
This is an older place but was comfortable. My husband and I both had a great nights sleep. The gentleman that checked us in was very friendly, helpful and responsive. It was very close to the tidal bore viewing and near plenty of restaurants.
Located right off a main highway. It’s an old motel. Rooms were clean, but everything needs updated. Tried to get coffee at 8 o’clock in the morning. But the office said it was closed. They have refrigerators and microwaves in the room, which is nice. They should add a coffee pot.

No coffee maker in the room. A kettle and instant coffee was available at the front desk. Our room was by the outside stairs and it was very noisy.

Bathroom floor is as wet as I think toilet seal needs to be replaced. I do however think I got value for my motel rate

If you need a last minute place to crash then great. Some lamps didn’t work, the room was an oven and the portable ac was very loud and didn’t cool down the room enough - shut it off in the middle of the night.
Was a great stay, and would visit again. Although harmless, as we were about to leave a knock came to the door to remind us that check out was at 11 AM. It was 11:01 and there was no one around. Not sure why they felt this was necessary. (it just made us feel a little less appreciated) We dropped the Key at the office @ 11:05
