Very small room- but clean!
The room was very small and have to move around with 2 adults and 2 children. Parking was very limited as well which was also a problem. However, the room was clean and the cheapest motel on seawall. The location was nice too as it was right across from the water and within walking distance of some shops.

You pay for what you get
I was there for a cruise so I didnt need much. The one thing that bothered me that the room was “wet” floor was wet due to the heat I guess outside but the room smelt and felt wet. Floor was wet and had an odor of wetness not mildew but wetness

Humidity through the roof!
The location is great. Beach front. The rooms are outdated but they try their best. A lot of moisture in the room. Wet walls and floors. Showers old and moldy. Beds were clean and comfortable. Good place if just to sleep and rest.

Roaches and inoperable equipment
Found a live roach on the table. Microwave turned on but did not heat food. Won’t stay here again.

Room was on the small side so we felt cramped. Shower pressure was minimal. The king sized bed was comfortable. TV was to small for the room so had a hard time seeing it from the bed. Great location though! Price was good for what we got.

On the beach
Everything was good except the TV. You have to injure 2-1 to get to Channel 2. If you enter just two it won't come on. If you don't know this figure out a luck

Not happy
Very rude front desk personally the room was dirty the beds were horrible to sleep on and the bed covers and sheets and pillows had a bad smell. Also found numerous German roaches crawling around had to put a 200.00 dollar pet fee and don't even own any pets great location bad owner and management.
