Decent for the money. The hotel is a bit dated but we didn't care since we stayed one night. Pool is quaint but small for the amount of guests. We didn't like the people smoking in the breezeways. Overall it was ok. I will say the front desk staff are very nice.

Hotel is a DEAL
I love the location near the bay and close to the beach. The amenities such as a hot breakfast, free kayaks and beautiful views make this a deal. It is also pet friendly! I can’t get over this hotel and its cuteness. I will be back!

Motel with a friendly Staff!
The staff is extremely nice and helpful. This Motel has a lot of potential but could definitely use some TLC / Upgrades. The description definitely needs to read motel not hotel so the expectations are not set for higher standards when you arrive. I was definitely disappointed when I got there. The staff definitely makes this place.

First - Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Room/bed/floor/bathroom within the control of staff are clean and acceptable. Location is right at Bay side and right cross within walkable distance from beautiful whit sand beach and Gulf Pier. Bike, Kayak are free. Free BF is acceptable and similar to regular BF. Price is fair considering with free bike/kayak and at Bay. However, this is a motel facility, and not a hotel so do not have wrong expectations.
