Great place.
The motel is “quaint” in the middle of downtown area & close to the pier. It is quiet,warm, clean & comfortable. We were provided a coffee pot by the front desk which was great! There is a small fridge ( no freezer). Over all, for the price & availability to restaurants etc it was great. “Jack” is practically in the parking lot😉
