Simone

Highly recommend! I was surprise at our room! So spacious, updated. We had a free upgrade to a king bed. Loved that! Perfect for families. Mini golf right next door. Pub a few hundred feet away. Grocery store 5 minute drive. Walk to the water front - 3-4 minute walk. Can’t wait to come back in warmer weather. Staff super friendly. We stay at a lot of hotels and I can sometimes be a little picky. I can’t say enough good things about this motel. Wish we could have stayed longer ♥️
