Check in was good at the desk/bar but I ended up being charged for the complimentary first drink! Hotel was clean but the lights are confusing since the tiny on off switch is black on a black background. The shower didn't heat up well and was difficult to use since the shower head was hard to use since you had to hold it in your hand since it wouldn't stay in the right position attached to the wall.

Very convenient for walking at BioPark and to Old Town. Loved finding the excellent restaurant Buen Provecho just up the street a bit. Kind helpful hosts. Very comfortable bed and very quiet for sleeping. Nice size of room. Only suggestion is one more chair with a back.

We always love staying at this hotel when traveling with our grand kids because they LOVE the bunk beds. The only downfall to our recent visit was that there was absolutely no parking so we had to park at a neighboring hotel. I was told there was a wedding party celebration or something at their lounge so they were taking some of the parking spaces. It would make more sense to ensure that the hotel guests who paid over

It was clean and comfy. The bed was really nice. The only constructive criticism I could offer is that the shower needs a curtain or door.

Clean room & bath. Cute place. Bed was very comfortable. WIFI didn’t work till the next morning when we were leaving but that was minor as we weren’t there to surf the internet.

This was the most darling little motel. It was so cozy and comfortable and only a short walk to old town. There is laundry available along with a nice pool. We have nothing but nice things to say about the hotel. The neighborhood is a mixed area with nice renovated motels and old town shopping and restaurants but also some run down shady stuff. We walked everywhere and never felt unsafe though.

Great place on Rte 66

Cool and funky-in-a-good-way motel on Rte. 66. Nice lounge for checking in or hanging out. Great service, Jessica was especially lovely and helpful! Pool was a nice feature. Large clean rooms with a wonderful shower although I don’t get not having a door on it, water went all over the bathroom floor… I’d stay here again!
