Basic motel setting, no cook top and there’s an electric cooker provide but in unsafe to use condition ( heavy scratched Teflon pan, lid nob half broken), so I only used the toaster and microwave oven. Reception lady is very nice but the reception room has a strange smell, appears to be the uncleaned hoover exhaust bad smell that lingers. Location is away from town centre right on the main road connected to HWY 1. So frequent traffics including large vehicles at a fast speed with loud noises. Shower pressure was really good and ithe room clean. Next time will choose the beach side near town centre.

The bed was not overly good. It was like trying to sleep on jelly. Every time my wife moved, I felt it, and vice versa. Advertisements said they had Sky of which they had 2 channels and no dedicated box to view more.
