The toilet was leaking from the time we arrived, the room itself was DISGUSTING when we walked in. We weren’t given any additional linen and housekeeping NEVER came. There was a van stationed next to the parking lot watching us every time we came outside, not to mention all the drug addicts surrounding the Inn. I will NEVER STAY HERE AGAIN! I DO NOT RECOMMEND BOOKING! Only good thing is we were walking distance of the beach.

All of the bedding was dirty. Requested clean bedding. They brought me a bag of new bedding and left it at my door. It was still dirty. There was trash all over outside, including a broken down trailer that was overflowing with junk. There were broken chairs and other miscellaneous garbage on the path down to the beach.

I have used that motel for many years, I go with my family every year, I go up to 3 four times in the summer And now it was a very bad experience because I found it very dirty, there were a lot of drugs, dark-skinned people with weapons and for the family, I think which is not very healthy, there was a couple having sex in front of us in the car, it was a very bad experience.
