We arrived at 315, no staff on site and room wasn’t ready. Came back 2 hours later to check in and got into the room. It was horrible, looked like bad emergency accommodation. Too many things wrong to even explain. The spray painted walls with overspray on the door just one thing. It was so bad that we booked another motel and left as soon as we could. Do not waste your money here, you will live to regret it!

Maintenance of the room was terrible. Paint over spray on the carpet and curtain pelmet. A whole in the screen door to fit the key. Bathroom door was falling apart, no handle on the shower screen. Mattress hadnt been turned and was sinking into one spot that others had left. Etc. Do not recommend, this was 2 star if lucky

Room needs general maintenance, room smelt of stale cigarette smoke, amenities poor (toilet pan not secure, taps extremely tight-shower cold tap unusable, fixtures loose/insecure), furnishings poor & unclean, room uninviting, value for money is a negative. Sadly no compliments.

I believe the management honestly were trying to keep the property clean and respectable and within a price range for locals to seek safe shelter. Not really appropriate for out of towners seeking cheap accommodation. But I congratulate them for their efforts.

Ocean Crest Motel was adequate and you get what you pay for. It was neither a hot nor cold night, but the guests either side had their air conditioning units on, which were noisy. However, the bed was comfortable, but the tv didn't work.

Online, it showed a nice swimming which was misleading because the pool was empty and overgrown. The rooms showed very nice rooms but were different once we got there. Or on average, it was okay wouldn’t rush back

Shabby, in need of a makeover, used soap in the shower, no cups or glasses, no reception, all too hard. If want cheap and no thrills you have your place, recommend staying elsewhere.

Although there was a fridge, microwave, kettle and toaster (and no breakfast), there was only 1 plate, no glasses, no spoons, 1 knife and not even room for a toothbrush in the bathroom, nor bench space anywhere. OK if all you want to do is lie on the bed...
