10/10 Excellent
"Everything was well maintained. Staff was friendly. I left an expensive item in the room. I received a phone call. I was very glad for that phone call. I got my property. It could have been really bad. Very pleased."

8/10 Good
"This is a beautiful and charming hotel. The inside of the hotel smells wonderful, and the atmosphere is very inviting. The only thing I didn’t like was that there is no pool. However, the garden is very relaxing and beautifully decorated, which makes it a lovely place to unwind. I can't wait to go back during the holidays."

8/10 Good
"Older property showing its age outside but interior of room was clean and well appointed. Outside asthetics were a bit disappointing as the Front building of property was under renovation but not disclosed at the time the reservation was made. Motel is in a good location on Shell Beach. FIREPITS by the bluffs were a BIG plus and are available on first come first serve basis."
