“What this vintage motel lacks in modern polish, it more than makes up for with its warm staff and unbeatable location, steps from the beach and close to dining; sea-themed decor adds a quirky touch, fitting for a seaside getaway.
Though some furnishings show their age, the rooms are clean and equipped with practical amenities like a good-sized fridge and a smart TV, while leaving budget travelers pleasantly surprised. For unfussy beach lovers, it's a solid, affordable base.”
