This quaint beach hotel was everything the doctor ordered. Reasonably priced, right on the ocean. The room was comfortable, good shower. My only drawback was the mattress was a hard sleep. We could feel the springs and all woke up a little sore. The room was very clean and modern. Nice having the pier so close. The restaurant was good but quite pricey, better meals can be found inland .

The room was smaller than I expected, but we weren’t in it except to sleep! We did find the mattress to be very firm & actually uncomfortable for both of us, but it was just for one night, so it was ok. The ladies at the front desk were kind and very helpful! Conveniently located - we enjoyed dinner at Tranquil Harbor nearby, got groceries at the Food Lion. Will definitely visit again!!

8/10 Very good

The room was cleaned and smelled good/ clean, bed was very comfortable sheets and blankets and pillows all in good shape towels also. This room was more than adequate and very convenient to the beach and the fishing pier next-door. I’m not sure it’s the right term to use, but this is an old school motel that is properly maintained and cleaned. The staff were available and friendly, price was a fair market offering.
