FIRST, I have now read multiple reviews, we NEVER saw management on the grounds, perhaps they were there and we did not see them or figure out how to access them! The room was fairly inexpensive. The second night of our stay at this VACASA property in Rockaway Beach, when again, there was NO PARKING in the parking lot, we called VACASA and asked for direction. The person took our information and we received a call back (manager?) telling us where we were allowed to park. Two nights of the five we stayed there, we were able to park in front of the rental. The other three we had to walk. We did find out we could park on a side road, but not across from it, as those rentals were owned by someone else. SO the first night, we parked somewhere we could have been towed or ticketed!
NOT that we are intolerant of noise, as we have had children in the and have been teenagers. There was so much noise from other rentals (we believe that the entire "motel" is vacation rentals) was so noisy, from crying babies and children to loud young adults. FYI, there is a fan in the room and no airconditioning, we brought a fan with us as two previous guests said the air conditioner did not work, there was no air conditioner. The fan worked fine. AN FYI for the property owner, it could have been cleaned a bit better. There was an inhaler under the bed, we found when making sure we got all of our items, and against the wall. behind the bed frame, were several dead bugs. The worse was not knowing if we would have a place to park after returning from a day of visiting nearby beaches. There is quick access to the beach from this unit, just no view, which we were aware of. It is less than a two-minute walk to the beach and there are steps built into the sand. The townspeople are very nice and tolerant of a town swarming with tourists. The parking was an issue. Perhaps one of the two parking spots could be marked for the occupants of unit #115. In reading other posts many compliment the management and the coffee. We missed both of these. Certainly not an unaffordable place to stay, and it is close to the beach. Probably the most affordable rooms on the coast. The bed was noisy, probably the plastic-type mattress cover that was in use. It was a bit hard for our liking, and we would consider spending a little money on a bed topper. The shower was clean and had great shower pressure. We would not be opposed to staying here again.
