Unfortunately our room was directly Next to the rooster bar and we heard the people In there and the music well into 3am every night - made for very poor sleeping conditions. Also when showering the hot and cold handles did not work, made for very cold Showers which was really too bad, wouldn’t recommend or stay here again

The exterior door of the room was a hollow wood door. Hollow wood doors are intended for interior use such as closets, bathrooms, etc., not exterior. For proper security, an exterior door should be either metal or solid wood. Even though the door on the room I stayed in had two locks, including a dead bolt, a hollow wood door can be broken open in minutes, if not seconds, with ordinary common hand tools or it can be kicked apart. This is a serious security lapse. Additionally, there was a gap between the bottom of the door panel and the threshold that likely permitted a large cockroach that I found in the room on my third night there to gain access to the room. Someone at the front desk told me that the roaches live in the trees outside so it probably got in under the door. It would seem that if they knew about the roaches, measures should have been taken (such as better fitting doors with barriers along the bottoms) to keep them out of the rooms. Other possible intruders, such as mice, could probably squeeze through too. Other issues that I noticed didn't seem well thought out such as the location of the wall mounted TV; most of the screen could not be seen from the bed if the outward swinging bathroom door was open by more than about a foot. It could have been mounted elsewhere. Overall, the room was clean, the bed was comfortable and the air conditioner worked well. Everything worked well in the bathroom though the sink faucet was a bit loose and moved slightly.

Not fancy but good
This hotel is in such a great location. You can walk to everything in the historic part of town or rent a bike and go everywhere! It was a small room but clean and very comfortable bed. There is a beach nearby and also a nice pool. Breakfast was better than I expected and the coffee was really good. We have been here before and will probably be back.

Quaint but needs repairs
The motel grounds are very well kept and are quiet and clean. The front office is cute and clean. The room we were given in the back of the lot was large but was in need of some simple repairs. For the cost of the room the quality of the room was not inline. Good location and easy access. They just need to make simple repairs that make a big difference. Our phone did not work, the tv did not work but they did come mess with it and it finally worked. We plugged in a hairdryer and it blew a breaker - they did come fix that as well. The service was good, the room was so so.

Beware that there is a bar at the property with live music in the evening that goes til 1:30 a.m. This bar was right beside my window. I was told at checkin that the music only went til 11 p.m., which I didn't think was unreasonable. However when it was still going strong at 12:30, I called reception and was told, "No, it doesn't end til 1:30 a.m." I find it hard to believe that they didn't know that when I checked in. At first the manager was not willing to allow me to cancel my second night and get a refund. It was only after I got Expedia involved (thanks to the helpful folks at Expedia) that he was willing to do so. He remainded unwilling to discount my first night. So I paid $350 CAD for 3 1/2 hours sleep. He assured me that he would let all staff know how late the music actually goes, so if you are told otherwise, let my lesson be your guide. Otherwise the property is fine and the bed was comfortable. It will work if you don't mind live music literally outside your room (Room 19) til 1:30 a.m.
