Die Nähe zum Strand und zu interessanten Ausflugszielen.
Doch leider war baden aufgrund verschmutztem Wasser nicht empfohlen, außer man riskiert es krank zu werden.
Bei der Buchung war nicht unmittelbar ersichtlich, dass es ein reines Self-Check-In Hotel ist.
Und leider gab es auch keinen Hinweis auf das verschmutzte Meereswasser.

The mattress needs update… tv needs update, I couldn’t watch soccer games… the roof fan was making broken noises and my gf was scared that it was going to fall on us at night

Großartige Lage. Bequeme Betten. Gute Dusche. Charmantes Design unter Beibehaltung alter Bausubstanz.
Der Online-Check-In lief nicht optimal. Fragen per eMail wurden nicht beantwortet. Vor Ort war niemand verfügbar außer dem Reinigungsteam.
Die Zimmer sind Recht hellhörig, und leider wären auch einige kleinere Reparaturen nötig (Jalousie kaputt, Waschtisch im Bad nicht fachmännisch installiert).

Property canceled my trip and left me standard. Then did nothing to help me get into a hotel. I have stayed here multiple times and they DID NOTHING TO HELP ME. Be warned don’t book here you will be stranded.
They do not man the property so I was just out of luck. NO ONE CARED.
Nothing they offer horrible customer service and do not help you when you drive from another state to check in!

Appreciated the location. Easy to walk around.
The person on the other side of the wall who had the TV on really loudly all night. No way to reach someone to contact the person. I was traveling with my elderly mother, not too excited about just knocking on the door.

Ceiling fan
Comfy bed
Fridge/freezer, microwave in room
Water filling station inside the lobby
Friendly staff
Easy keyless entry
Parking right outside room door
Nice sitting area in between buildings
So very close to beach, right across street.
There was a public outdoor workout area across street
Short walking distance to restaurants
Construction was happening next property over (my stay was in August 2023), so waking up on Wednesday and Thursday morning to construction noise by 8am. Looks like construction will be going strong for another month or two.
No AC, so windows needed to be open to cool room, which also means you can hear everyone (people at motel, people walking the street, cars driving by) around you.
If you are sensitive to noise when you sleep, consider these situations. Ear plugs will help if you are a person who can sleep with them.

The proximity to the beach and the walk ability to shops, pier and restaurants.The rooms were clean. Grounds very clean.
The bed was terrible for my back.
Could have used more towels (2 small towels and 1 wash rag ) for a 3 days stay.. No towels or rags in kitchen for dishes.
The rooms got pretty hot since they only supply fans NO AC.

Kitchen was poorly equipped, information about WiFi and cleaning did not match reality.

Nothing.
The property was dirty and all the facilities were very old. There were cockroach traps hidden behind the furniture. A property to the rear of the hotel had a dog that kept barking late into the night & music played until late at night. It was that bad I chose to leave the property and give up the $150 paid. The hotel only offered a $50 refund which I objected to and they just ignored me and ceased responding. Do not stop here. The place is not nice at all.

nice easy location before travelling to CBX the following morning. A few bars and restaurants close by.
absolutely filthy!! the bathroom, windows, floors , surfaces etc hasn’t been cleaned at all. It smelled musty & even the bedding was smelly. The shampoo has been refilled and there were hairs in it. there was a big mound in the middle of my bed where it must have been fixed, not comfortable. The bedding was old and bobbly, wirh some extras just flung in the wardrobe, also smelly. It was a big room for 2 people, little kitchenette area, so it’s a shame. needs cleaning properly, a lick of paint and some new furniture that isn’t battered.

The room and view were outstanding. Clean, well-maintained and stylish.
The floor is cobble tile, this is very attractive but a bit wobbly to walk on, at least for me. It's not a deal-breaker, tho. I'd love to see it at another point in time.

this is one of my favorite places to stay!! great location and friendly staff.
we did only get one towel in the bathroom and it was a bit of a bummer, since there was two of us. I wish we would have known before they closed up the lobby for the night. but we managed 😎

It's a bit close to the sea
The staff is not waiting in the front lobby and just wrote down the phone number. I had to wait a long time and it was very inconvenient to use the television and curtains. irritation and disappointment
