    It was a much older hotel than I thought. There was paint missing from the walls. Fixture in the bathroom was broken. The door lock didn’t work properly.

    The breakfast should be renamed pastry and coffee. There was no breakfast. The location was excellent.

    TV constantly buffering unable to watch anything. Tepid water on shower. Wasn’t told there was coffee but apparently it was awful. Told upon arrival that there was a $100 security deposit !! Was by promised a downstairs room because of my poor mobility near the main office but switched to the corner room, later found out the original room was empty.

    Location staff big mention to Richard

    I don’t have any real complaints

    Location was good, room was okay. It did look a little bit worn but it was clean and the bed was decent. Everyone is trying to weather the financial storm and I am sure the hotel industry is no different.

    Just a little small for a family of 4 but we made due with the space. Low water pressure in shower

    That is was cheap and clean and on the Seawall easy access to everything close by. I would stay again.

    Door to room 223 appeared to be damaged and sometimes had difficulty opening and closing it. There was usually just one person on duty at reception and often a long line of guests with queries or problems built up. Need at least 2 people on duty. Swimming pool didn't open until 11am so no chance of early morning swim!

    Location and swimming pool.

    Staff were not friendly. The hotel advertised having free breakfast with your stay but, they did not have breakfast the only thing they offered was coffee. Some things in the room did not work efficiently.

    Location and cleanliness.

    Parking was full. We didn't get basic information about the possibility of parking on the street. We didn't know we were allowed to park outside and WASTED a lot time trying to park when we came back from eating outside.

    Very good place. Me and my daughters enjoyed the stay.

    There were many sources of noise; the fridge in the room, the other guests above the room and parking right before the building

    Very close to the beach, best price and comfi beds.

    Wish the ice machine was closer to my room. How ever I wouldn't have changed my room to be near an ice machine.

    It was a wonderful stay. Staff was friendly, I felt very safe in my room. And had a nice view. I would recommend it to anyone.

    The parking lot is small but wasn't crowded when we were there.

    The location is fantastic! Within walking distance of Murdoch's, Pleasure Pier and multiple restaurants. And directly across from a beach access on the Seawall. It is an older motel but has been updated and though the rooms are on the small side, they are clean and comfortable. It was perfect for our overnight stay.

    The parking lot was small and tight, very narrow driving lanes. We had no issues, no dents or dings, but still, it was small. Don't get there too late at night, you might not find a parking space for yourself!

    Was a good stay, room was kind of small, but had 2 full size beds, so not a lot of walking room. Had a microwave and a small fridge. The TV was kind of wonky, but it worked well enough. Overall it was a good stay. The room could have been better, but it was not bad at all. Good for the price. And the location was the best! Literally right across the street from the beach! Within walking distance!
