Stayed here last night and loved it!!! They actually had the holy trinity of pet friendly, a WORKING hot tub, and great reviews. Booked this place so fast and hoped for the best. We arrived late around 9pm and all of us got into the large and steamy hot tub and relaxed. Then we swam in the heated pool. Towels were still available and there was an indoor bar open til midnight where we had martinis. A very enjoyable 3 hours was had after our late and exhausted arrival! Staff was super friendly, we loved everyone!!! Bar was great, restaurant was delicious, coffee was great, the rooms were so cool and well decorated and spacious. We had a keurig, a fridge (no freezer), really wonderful toiletries and a blow dryer. There were elevators but also ramps if you didn’t want to wait. The hotel has exterior entrances and can be a little noisy in the morning as guests walk by but we couldn’t hear cars or anything like that on the road. My only grumbles are that the shampoo and body wash were empty, the beds and bedding aren’t as nice as I’d like and the floors were pretty dirty. Could’ve used a more thorough refilling and mopping before we got in there but it wasn’t a big deal. The pet fee was a whopping $150 (!!!!!) but they cut it in half due to our short one-night stay. Our corgi was well behaved and enjoyed this hotel too :) We have stayed in this area multiple times and this is the first hotel we would book again and stay at again. Top notch service and rooms!

The motel is very cute and the retro theme is fun! The rooms were clean and the staff were very friendly! There are MANY things nearby and they are easy to get to. Unfortunately, the wait for breakfast was too long and we only get breakfast for 2, but we are a family of 4, so it was not worth the wait to only feed half of our family. This is a cute place to stay!
