Decided to visit the ocean on a whim (and on a budget). Picked this place because it was one of the few that offered king-sized beds at a reasonable rate. Check in was a breeze, the staff was very pleasant and helpful.
Was kind of worried when we saw the one review about bed bugs, but when we got there none were to be found. Yes, they do use flat sheets instead of fitted, but I've found most two-star hotels/motels do the same. The room was quite large for just a king size bed. It came with a sofa (I suspect a sleeper), table, two chairs, microwave, fridge and coffee maker. The only (personal) complaint I have is that the shower heads are very low. Someone over 6 ft. tall would have a tough time using it.
Breakfast was about what you would expect for a motel of this rating. Waffles (make your own) a few pastries, some fresh fruit, cereal, milk, juice and coffee available. Nothing fancy, just filling. However since it is served in their tiny lobby, seating was extremely limited so I took ours back to our room. Housekeeping was nice enough to assist me opening my door when she saw how full my hands were.
Overall, the cleanliness of the room, helpfulness and friendliness of the staff would make me feel comfortable staying there again.
