First time here , the “ contactless “ check in process seemed almost harassing Nothing on the ******* website said you had to pay for parking yet I seem to recall the motel saying I had to pay extra for parking , which I did not . The room is nice but the 5 messages seemed excessive

The property does have a great location and the staff was responsive and would answer all question at a moments notice.what i disliked about the room was the bed sheets were dirty , stained and also had blood stains on the mattress. Aswell as the towels were stained and the shower was not properly cleaned

The room itself was great, very clean. We had some trouble with our code to get in and the room doesn’t lock from the inside so I had to put the coffee table in front of the door so my toddler wouldn’t try to open it.

Overall wonderful! Right off the beach being between wonderful restaurants and only a couple mins from the pier, a lovely location, the coffee is included! There is blemishes on the walls and corners of the room but nothing that alarms me, just the wear and tear. Overall when I’m in the mood to come back to IB I’ll try to book for here! :)

Not worth it. Good location, but not worth it. I don’t want to just hate on this place, but I left two nights into my three night stay because it was really bad. No garbage, no soap, about 1/4 roll of toilet paper. No air controls. No maid service in my room while I was there. Bed caved in. Humidity was so high that my towels never dried.

Across the street is a 5 star hotel for 30$ more a night. The finishing touches were left out. No ice bucket. Wood on the door was not painted. Hardware in the tub was jankey and not connected to a stud. There are no drink glasses, only coffee cups if im paying 300 a night this is unsat!

My stay was….. The stay wasn’t too bad. When I went into the room there was an open drink container on the counter. So maybe a bit more housekeeping and also cleaning of the fans would be good because there is a bunch of dirt on them, but the value for price is there not anything that can’t be dealt with
