Surfside Motel

Surfside Motel

8/10 Good
"Overall our stay was good. I went with my sister and stayed 1 night. The room was very nicely air-conditioned which was wonderful because it was very hot. We showed up a little early before check in and was able to speak with the front desk and get a parking pass which I was completely grateful for. The location was nice. It is one block off the boardwalk and right near the beach access. I would stay again. The pool was crystal clear and looked well maintained."
