Decent short-stay more-affordable option in...
Liked: Excellent location walking distance to the beach, boardwalk, and restaurants. Room was clean and an ample size. Nice to have a pool, seems family-friendly if you have kids. Great TV options. Nice to have windows that open and good ceiling fans. Decent budget-conscious option. I might return again for a short-stay.
Disliked: Junk fees! For early check-in (before 4pm, which is late) they wanted to charge me $33 even though the room was ready. Also, they charge a "credit card fee" not itemized in Booking.com summary of charges (did not change total price however). Also: there was poor water pressure in shower and it was difficult to find the sweet spot between hot and cold in the shower. Noise of Mission Boulevard was somewhat annoying during the day. Lumpy foam pillows.

Great location at a reasonable...
Liked: Check in process was smooth. Locked gates and lighting surrounding the building add a nice security feature. Parking was close and convenient. We stayed on the ground floor, so it was reasonably easy to roll our luggage through the property. There isn't a lot of space to keep large suitcases in the room, at least ours was a bit crowded. There was a desk, a dresser, a renovated bathroom, functional tv, remote controlled ceiling fan over each bed, good lighting options, fully carpeted floor except tile in the bathroom. We had no issues with noise. We slept well and found the beds comfortable. Pool is the centerpiece with rooms surrounding. We swam in the pool (in December) and it was fine, too cool in the shade, but kids had fun and the availability of beach towels and loungers was great. Walking distance to the Pacific shore boardwalk and plenty of restaurants. A short drive to Sea World. Great location and very reasonable price.

Great value for the location.
Liked: Great location! Lots of great restaurants within walking distance and the walk to the beach is just a few short minutes. The room was clean and the area was quiet, which I was surprised by, so it was perfect for our needs as a place to rest our heads at night. We weren't really looking for any onsite amenities, but there is a pool and a hot tub. I would definitely stay again.
Disliked: The water in the shower never got hot, but at best it was a luke warm shower, which felt chilly since we were there at a time when it was mildly cold and damp outside. The front desk didn't seem to be staffed at all times, as we had to call upon arrival, but they did show up before the phone finished ringing. And in fairness, they did call us that day to ask what time we thought we were coming, which was nice, given we were going to be there moreso in the evening. Then, when I went to check out, no one was there, although they showed up a few minutes later.

It served our needs, but...
Liked: The room configuration was good for her purpose. There was a nice pool that my grandson enjoyed greatly and the location was good.
Disliked: The motel has a nonstandard deposit requirement of $250 and makes you sign a contract that basically threatens to keep your deposit in a number of places. They say it’s for incidentals but there are virtually no amenities in this hotel. There’s no continental breakfast there’s no room service, there is essentially nothing there that you could spend extra money on that would be considered an incidental cost.The only thing they have is coffee which they don’t serve until 8 o’clock in the morning which for early risers is pointless.

Great, updated and clean spacious...
Liked: Updated, clean and spacious suite. Great location.
Disliked: The only drawback is that the rooms are not insulated very well and i could hear the occupants on both sides and above ....walking, snoring, talking, and their tv.
