Marina Beach Motel
3.0 star property
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (1001)
"Overall, the Marina Beach Motel is a very nice facility. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It is a short quarter block walk to the beach, from there you can be at the marina or pier in just a hand full of blocks (either right or left respectively). Our only complaint is that the sound isolation between the motel room is poor. If you have a noisy child in the next door room, or is the guest plays the TV at listening levels; you will hear it (we had both next to us)."

"Place was clean and pictures represented the home accurately. Plenty of space for our group of 8. Property managers were responsive and check in and out was easy. Night time noise from the street was rather loud and the bedrooms did not have sound machines or tvs to drown it out. TVs in bedrooms would be a nice addition for visitors who would like to decompress in their rooms. Even with this, we would recommend and would stay here again!"
