Great little spot a couple of streets from beach, across the road from casino and pacific fair.
Fairly quiet. However some construction on the street, I was pleased to see they offered ear plugs.

For an overnight stay, it suited our purposes very well! Only downfall was the roadworks that limited parking spaces, but that really couldn’t be helped.

Construction work going on all around the hotel, noisy until midnight then starts up again at 7am.
We were offered ear plugs upon check-in, now i know why.
Stayed there bc it was cheap but wouldn't stay there again.
Pool is not like it is in pictures.
Very outdated place.

On going tram works out front. Fortunately no real noise. Standard motel of this area, not modernized, but still clean and serves the function.
