The property was nothing outstanding. It was adequate and clean. Parking was convenient as it's a small lot. What made it alright was it's location on moonstone beach. It's an older motel property that was upgraded and rooms remodeled, and I think $700+ for two nights was overpriced. They did serve a continental breakfast that was ok, if you wanted something light. It was quiet and the room was very clean. Close to the downtown area that if you wanted to walk to, you could. The ocean view was beautiful but you had to open your drapes to face the walkway and parking, so not much privacy if you wanted to take in the view from your room. We did not interact with the staff as we were gone during the day.

Our room was very clean & comfortable. Just wish an Ocean View room could have been handicap assessible. Climbing stairs to the 2nd level was not easy due to back surgery. If I had known there was no elevator...I would have selected a different room... Breakfast was very good and lots of options. Great place to meet fellow travelers.
