Little cottage type rental. Was cozy and cute. If we were staying again, would request a room in the back door to traffic noise. Was a good place for a one night stay prior to surgery. Parking free.

Really cool little place. It's a good "value" place to stay for a short vacation or a long weekend! It's quite a bit cheaper than most places nearby, and it shows when compared to much more expensive hotel chains. But that's OK...it's clean and well stocked with everything I needed for a 3 night stay. The room is pretty small, but we only slept here...we spent the rest of the day time doing something fun, somewhere outside! The property is also clean, and always plenty of ice and a well stocked soda machine too. The pool area was clean and had plenty of grilling areas and pool games too. The location is minutes away (driving) to the beaches, restaurants and local shopping. There's a new-looking Waffle House right next door for awesome breakfasts. We really had a great time and this was a cool little place to stay. Although you may run into some really shady places trying to save money, this one was good for us and we liked the laid back, small town vibe!

Room was clean and in good condition. The AC was kind of loud and disturbing, but that was the only point to mention. No breakfast but lots of options to eat close by. Overall a good motel for a reasonable price.
