There was no coffee in the room, no chair, no place to put a computer, and no grab bars in the shower even though you had to step into a bathtub. Breakfast was advertised but it was a very skimpy continental breakfast with lukewarm coffee. It was clean, colorful and staff were always polite,

Fun, funky blast from the past

Love love love this little motel. It's quirky, fun, clean, quiet. This remodel of an old-fashioned motel is everything the big chains are not--friendly and unique. From the disco balls to the pool room to the fun in-room decor, the attention to detail is superb. This is an old building, so there are a few signs of wear in a previous life. It can take a few minutes for the hot water to arrive. But if you like the feel of supporting a charming local business, then Hotel Royal Oak is for you.

Good location for my purposes; quiet but “breakfast” was not good; and n appealing muffins, donuts and bagels; only coffee and creamer was powdered- ugh not what you want to wake up and have. If advertising b’fast it should be a bit more robust - maybe add yogurt and real milk options. Also no tea, hot water.

I always love staying at the HRO! They've done a marvelous job renovating and updating the property. Each time I come back (continental breakfast and a community room with a pool table this time!), I like to see the progress they've made. The staff are so friendly and helpful.

Maid / Bugs / Staff / Location

It's a MOTEL, not a hotel. Maids did not speak english, so there was some confusion about what / when things were needed. There were some bugs (maybe silverfish?) in the tiny bathroom. Window air conditioner had a hard time cooling when it was near 100 outside. Desk staff were very accommodating & friendly. Downtown location was convenient & walkable to amenities.
