Room was small, clean, and staff was good. Located in town, walking distance to shops and beach. But the room was very over heated and noisy due to thin door to adjacent rental.

This is such a cute motel! Our room was big and clean and clearly recently remodeled. It felt more like a bedroom in someone’s home than a motel room. Mandy was very helpful when we needed it. It’s an easy walk to downtown. We would go back in a heartbeat!
