Moldy bathroom
Manager was very nice at check in. Room wasn’t horrible but bathroom was disgusting. There was mold on the ceiling and all over the bottom of the shower curtain which makes me think that it doesn’t get changed between guests. The bathroom had no ventilation (which is most likely the cause of the mold) other than a small window that had no screen. I’ve stayed at blue seal before (a different room) and it was not nasty like this one was. I doubt I’ll stay there again.

not the worst but its okay for a night
the staff at checkin and check out were super amazing friendly and nice. the room we were in #15 its a super basic room PROS: the bed was comfortable. there was a microwave, mini fridge and table with two chairs also a tv. The towels seemed pretty new. The parking lot is easy to park in. CONS: the mini fridge door dragged on the ground making it hard to open and close. the room needs a deep clean and maintenance. the walls need painting as you can see were repairs were done and instead of using wall color its now a hige spot of white paint. the faucet in the bathroom is super loose to the point of needing repair. all the walls and door jams are horribly dirty. the floor was however super clean as well as the shower. This hotel was great for a night at 145.00 in mid oct.

Terrible customer service. Completely unresponsive and lies. They said there was a room available and no one was there when I arrived with a No Vacancy sign on the door. I traveled 200 miles for lies. Don't know how they are in business!

A few sachets of shampoo but no soap or body wash. No cups or glasses in the room and no coffee maker. Plus no TV guide on the channel numbers. And no way to work out how to turn on the AC. Overall a very basic and sterile room lacking in the usual amenities. We will not be staying here again.

Très petite chambre, lit inconfortable, pas de place pour poser les bagages de façon pratique, aucun verre pour boire même en plastique, serviettes qui laissent à désirer, piscine vide, pas de machine à glace etc. La seule bonne chose est l’emplacement de l’hôtel, très près de la plage et du pier. Secteur tranquille et sécuritaire. Dommage pour le reste.

Location was excellent. Staff very friendly. Upon entry to room, it smelt dank. We went to local store and got cleaning stuff and cleaned the bathroom and entire floor of hotel, fortunately it was a tile floor. I am positive those floors haven't been mopped in a long time. Bathroom door hinges were loose and had to lift door to get to close. The toilet seat was loose and moved around when you sat on it. Once properly cleaned, our stay was nice and being so local to beach, food and stores was excellent. I think the cleaning part should be more thorough.

Only if desperate
Check in was supposed to be at 3. When I got there he said he doesn’t have maids and it won’t be until probably 5pm. My confirmation showed 2 queen beds he said his only shows 1 queen bed. Was not accommodating at all. He had me go tell the maid to clean my room after she got done with the one she was currently working. The room was supposed to have a mini fridge. The fridge was broken down outside our room. We had no place to store our drinks or food we brought. Door handles on dresser were broke. Faucet in sink was broken. Bed bugs bit me. Walls are super thin and you can hear everything. The bed is on a metal frame that moves as you move. Not sturdy at all.

Cons: The pool is under repair, the motel was noisy. It was hard to sleep with the light shining in the window, shutters would not close all the way. The air conditioner is a wall unit, it did not cool off the room. The bathroom was clean but old. The beds were lumpy. The beds had sheets and bedspreads, no actual blankets. The neighborhood was sketchy. The price was high. Located on an extremely busy street with no crosswalks for a few blocks. A lot of people park their trailers or RVs on the street so it is hard to see traffic if you are walking around. Pros: walking distance to the beach. Management was helpful. Parking was included. Parking was not strict. Pets are allowed. If you can get this place for a deal it would be worth it. For 300 a night? Look elsewhere.

There were no lamps on the nightstands. Only light in the bedrooms provided by one bulb in the ceiling. Sink area had no countertop no place for women replace their cosmetic bags or anything else. No tissues in the room no toilet paper holder in the bathroom. Only two towels available. Combination shampoo and conditioner packets were extremely difficult to tear open. It was a large gap under the front door which allowed cold air to stream in at night. Booked a queen bed but was given a full size. Way overpriced it more than $330. Probably deserved some credit on my bill as a result. Swimming pool was drained needed work.

We had no other option, so we had to suck it up. The property is run down but has potential to look so much better. We got the 3 beds that had a little kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen cabinet doors were hanging off, one bathroom had no toilet seat and was clogged, the carpets were horrendous, only one small trash can provided for the entire room(not even for the bathrooms), possible mold spotted in bathrooms, and our room was not ready till 7:30PM! Pros: walking distance to the beach, having 3 beds and kitchen. With the right management in place, this location can improve greatly. Until then, we plan to stay elsewhere.
