It is incredible what can be done with a 1950s motel. This place was a retro-modern sanctuary. I actually can't say enough nice things! 100% will stay there again!

Nice clean property in a great location. Friendly and helpful staff. Rooms kinda small, small bathrooms (and we’re not really large people), beds not really queen sized, and strange that there’s no tv in the room.
