"I found this place to be very affordable, and overall, it was a great experience. The only concern I had was a noticeable smell of cigarettes, which could be improved by implementing a no-smoking policy. Aside from that, it felt safe and welcoming. Considering the price, it was definitely a worthwhile stay!"

"This is overall a great place to stay right at the beach and across from the Boardwalk. Staff is friendly. I downgraded my rating for two reasons. 1) Parking is an additional $15 per night, which for a non-urban motel seems quite steep and mostly unadvertised. 2) There is basically no maid service. They came in an emptied trash once during our 4 night stay. That’s it. I really did not mind that, although again this was mentioned at check in. Did not leave the maid a tip. "

"Our stay was exactly what we were looking for. The unit was clean, modern, comfortable and had everything we could need while away from home. The location is idyllic. Steps from a beautiful, natural beach that is never crowded, always clean and mesmerizing any time of day or night. Easy drive to popular destinations like Monterey, Santa Cruz, Big Sur. The area is very rural with local agriculture fields and an average working class town with convenient shopping and amenities. Nearby we highly...
