Great stay!
The hotel is old, but I have stayed here many times and never had any issues at all. Staff are friendly. Love the proximity to the beach and the free parking, it is quiet, has a full kitchen, clean beds and towels, could use a remodel and interior updates but that doesn’t deter me from staying there in off season.

The location is ideal, offering great convenience due to its adjacency to the pier for a fishing day.

Location is perfect
Cute little ocean front motel. I was attending a conference nearby at another oceanfront hotel and it was lovely to be able to walk along the beach each morning and evening as my “commute.”

Great place to stay for pier fishing
This is a great little place to stay. It is an older property but our room was very clean. They have covered parking and it is right next to a great fishing pier. We also walked over to Sharks Bar and Grill for dinner.

Nice, quaint little hotel on the beach.
Staff was friendly and helpful, our room was clean and had a view of the ocean and the pier. Covered parking was a plus, keeping car out of hot sun. Would definitely stay again in the future.
