Fairly quiet aside from thin walls, felt safe, great parking and walkability to beach and restaurants. Nice front desk folks. Variable cleaning of rooms. Decent TV and nice hot shower. Thank you for the good, affordable stay.

Property could have been a bit cleaner, I've know that the trains pass by but did not realize so many late at night, tough to sleep. Location is very nice and convenient

Found a roach and bugs in the bathroom and someone elses lingerie in the bed in their deluxe suite. And charged me an additional $200 for no reason.

Ok motel for the price.
The rooms feel dated and could use some fresh paint. There are broken tiles on the shower wall, and a train passes nearby every three hours, even in the middle of the night, with its horn blaring. However, considering the price, these issues are manageable.
