While the property is older, it is well-kept and taken care of; the parking lot is safe and well-lit, and the rooms have all of the necessary facilities. Oh, and there is a Dunkin' right next door.

The parking was safe and newly paved. My room was on the first floor and very easy to walk from the lot. I liked the wall in front of the property to keep the noise from the busy street pretty quiet. The room was huge, same as the bathroom. Fridge, freezer & microwave in the room.

We like the pricing for the time of year. The South Bay Motel has always been a very clean hotel and that's why we come back plus it's conveniently located. There's a good fridge, tv, and microwave. No phone or clock, or in room coffee machine but it's next door to a Dunkin'. So great stay, clean room, and safe parking.

Cheap hotel for a cheap price.

The hotel was conveniently located for us and was much cheaper than the rest. You get what you paid for is all I can say. The bathroom was the worst with a toilet that barely flushed and dirty floor, two super thin towels for 4 people to share. Beds were ok and the AC worked well. We planned on leaving by 0900 but plans changed when the fire alarm went off at 0730. We just grabbed our stuff and left.
