The Eden Gardens is not with the other motels along the main drag of town. It is set up on the hill, with great views over the town and the Pacific Ocean. The rooms were smaller than you'd normally find, but the bed was super comfortable, and the bathroom was relatively newly renovated. The staff were excellent, helpful and friendly and really nice people.

Comfortable and tidy rooms. Nice bathrooms. Noisy when other people staying and doors bang closed. Friendly welcome.

The room is smAll. Only a kettle in the room and instant coffee. Would like a coffee press. Common area has toaster and microwave, no cook top or electric frying pan. Clean.

4 of us stayed here for work, the beds were either rock hard or extremely soft, both very uncomfortable the bedrooms were tidy but the bathrooms could have done with a lot more cleaning one mirror had toothpaste on it, another shower had sludge washing out of the shower trap as the water hit it. It was a little bit out of town up on the hill so it was very quite with no street noise or traffic. Staff were ok to deal with.
