Ok but not great
Room was stuffy smelling when arrived. Got better the ac running. Needs update to bath. Comfy bed. Rather noisy with highway right outside door. Breakfast was ok but not excellent as described by other guests. Very little choices.
When you stay at a motel, the expectations are pretty low. However, the room was nice and clean. The bed was comfortable and the pillows were great! Not a bad stay.
For the price the place was great and the staff was very nice. This was not the first time we stayed there, either. The only thing was the shower didn’t work. Thankfully I only ran 6 miles and didn’t stink too bad.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
OK room, excellent bed, crappy breakfast.
Comfortable bed and pillows. Room heater kept room toasty. Bathroom was just ok: toilet was old style and extremely low, door didn't close and latch. Generally room was clean, but tired and dated.
Breakfast was crappy. Waffle with sugary syrup and margarine, cold cereal/milk, sugary muffins and sugar glazed rolls, and watery orange juice (probably TANG). No hot cereal, no yogurt, no fruit, no eggs, no meat.
The coffee was excellent, though.
Great place and location, right across the street from the ocean. Very clean. Good amenities, great restaurant. Free parking for cruise line customers

Good bed, all else less than favorable
Bed was amazing. However hotel was dirty, baseboards, trim , and walls were dirty, not repaired and ripped materials. If you are looking to sleep only the bed was great. Everything else was not a good experience.
