This place was nothing like we expected. Dirty & old. I was with my 2 kids and they weren’t even happy. We have stayed right by the beach before and -trust me- you can find much better than this dingy dirty motel - to stay at. There was hair in the bathroom that obviously wasn’t cleaned. The bedsheets are like 100 years old and we picked a non smoking room- and the smell as soon as you entered the room - DID NOT smell clean. Moldy. And the so called “manager” Rob that I tried getting a hold of for DAYS calling at first and then actually going to the front desk never ever was available. Even after I decided to leave the motel. We ended up arriving and staying the night and checked out at 11:00. Expedia called because I wanted a refund for the other nights that I DID not stay and of course “Rob” didn’t approve it . He only approved one night. —- so Expedia did not want to refund me my money for the rest of the nights I had paid for because they needed the approval from him.

I attempted to call and email in advance to reschedule due to unforeseen circumstances. Nobody answered the phone. Nobody returned my messages that were left on their answering machine. Nobody emailed me back. Worst customer service ever!

Too many room parties, housekeeping came into the room while we were on the balcony. Hotel could use some major upgrades. Desk clerk clearly doesn’t like her job!
