Ocean Crest Motel is the cleanest motel I have ever stayed in. The attention to small details is wonderful. You will find yourself noticing these details throughout your stay. The girl at check-in was professional and friendly. I would highly recommend.

Stay here was okay - clean room and well equipped (microwave, mini fridge). Friends stayed down the road a bit and had ocean views at a less expensive price so unless the kitchen is important to you, would recommend a stay elsewhere closer to the beach and restaurants.

My room was right at the end of the building. Quiet, private, and I could park right outside my door. Super convenient! The young man at the front desk was delightful. Very friendly and helpful.

Nice surprise for a motel. Renovated bathroom counter. Had everything we needed. A nice beach across the road. Good value. Quirky switches for lights and the bathroom fan.

The motel is clean and staff and management are friendly. Good location, close to beach and town. Beds are small and a bit hard. We have stayed several times in the past and has been several years since last time. For the price it is lacking and will likely look for different accomadations next time. It is a good second choice but pricy for what is offered.

We were disappointed in the plastic feeling sheets. Why not use plastic over mattress, but with 100% cotton layers over that? Also, we were disappointed there was no pool, which we expected for the price of the stay.
