Good space for big family on quick trip on a budget. Great location! Fun that the location is used on a tv show and we love the Chez Jay restaurant and bar next door. Funky vintage original style motel across from the beach and pier. Super convenient.

This is a nice boutique hotel close to the beach. The room was clean. However the bedroom was isolated from the air conditioning and got hot. You can hear traffic from the nearby street very clearly in the room.

The property managers were amazing. They made me feel at home, and are very welcoming. They even let us leave our bags in office the day we were leaving, because we had a late flight. I would definitely stay here again. The room was cozy and inviting. It was very quiet, and about a 10 min walk to the beach. I am handicapped, and I was able to walk to everything.

Cockroach in room

Noticed a cockroach bedside my bed on checkout day during clean up. The man at the front desk acted as if it wasn’t a big deal. There are about 10 max parking spots available and they are extremely tight.
Wish I would’ve noticed this in the very beginning of stay.

We enjoyed our stay at the Ocean Lodge hotel. It is surprisingly charming for an updated motel building. The location was great and the room was clean and nicely decorated. The one issue we had was the noise level -- I'm guessing because it's an older building, the walls and floors are thin, and we could hear people talking and walking around past midnight. An easy solution would be to provide foam ear plugs in the guest rooms. Other than this, we liked the hotel and would stay again.
