This property is retro and fun. 1950-60's style is well done. No frills, but adequate amenities. Was there for the Worm Gruntin' Festival and found a plastic worm placed on the car windshield. Cool touch!

Parking was easy, right outside the room. The room was tiny but wonderful and really nice for what it was. AC kept the room comfortable and is extremely quiet. Great communication from the staff about the only issue with the tv but beyond their control. Definitely will book again when we go back to Panacea.

I LOVED this motel! The room was very clean. I liked the updates and the colors of the room. The room and the bed linens smelled really great too. It felt like a home. As a single woman, feeling safe on road trips is very important. I loved this place enough that I booked a 2nd night. I also enjoyed hearing birds chirping in the morning and the sound of the palm trees swaying. It was very peaceful. Thank you for an excellent stay!
