Clean and Comfortable

“The room I stayed in at the Islander Motel was very neat and clean, equipped with a tv and plenty of outlets. The bed was high, yet incredibly comfortable, allowing for a great night's sleep. Plus, having a decent-sized bathroom stocked with towels, shampoo, and soaps was a nice touch.” view full review
