I found this motel online. It is super cool, retro with lots of amenities in the room such as Keurig, good size fridge, microwave. Outside is a lovely pool. The nicest thing is the management guy is awesome, receptive, and takes immaculate care of the place. I highly recommend staying here.

Liked: Cleanliness

Not bad for a night or too.

Check in was fine once the person at the front desk returned from his lunch break..... Rooms were very clean albeit a bit smaller than expected. The windows work well to keep out most of the noise should you unfortunately, like us, have ridiculously rude neighbors who love to slam their door every time they went outside to smoke. Which was frequently :( Bed linen was clean and housekeeping was every other day. Pool was a nice extra as was the bowling alley next door for something to do. Bit pricey for what it is, but I guess you are paying for easy location.

Property was clean and convenient to many different food options. Staff was nice and helpful . I don't usually stay in motels because they are often dirty and seem like they charge by the hour. But this was probably the cleanest motel I have ever stayed in and surprisingly very quiet for a holiday weekend.

This property had a big presence when we drove up the drive way and it did not disappoint. The staff was so chatty and helpful in the office, and check-in was smooth. We grabbed some pool towels so we could swim before the day was over, and my kids loved it (despite it being somewhat chilly in the water). What a cool spot! The beds were comfortable, the rooms were clean and very cute, and the overall character was very charming. I love the retro vibe.

What an adorable place! I love the retro vibe and convenience of being able to park right in front of your room. The room was clean and the bed was super comfy. We woke up feeling refreshed and rested after a long day of being out in the summer sun. We'd definitely stay again!
