The location was good, only a short walk to the beach

The ranch slider door makde an awful screeching noise when opened or closed. TV didn't work properly and the internet was very spotty.

The location

The owner was dreadful, very grumpy , and would not address the non working fridge or microwave. Cabin was poorly sticked, had to buy a decent knife, and the opener was broken. TV didn't work. Cockroaches in room, room was ok, but the matresses and beds are about a hundred years old. Was told to turn out the light whilst in the toilet at night. Very , depressing, it ruined my 9 nights , I could not get any money back, so I could not leave as apparently no refunds no matter what it's like. Also, there was no milk in the fridge, and I was told by the owner that this only happens in motels No one approached me to do any cleaning the whole time. Don't go there with the current owner
