Very convenient for walking at BioPark and to Old Town. Loved finding the excellent restaurant Buen Provecho just up the street a bit. Kind helpful hosts. Very comfortable bed and very quiet for sleeping. Nice size of room. Only suggestion is one more chair with a back.

This was the most darling little motel. It was so cozy and comfortable and only a short walk to old town. There is laundry available along with a nice pool. We have nothing but nice things to say about the hotel. The neighborhood is a mixed area with nice renovated motels and old town shopping and restaurants but also some run down shady stuff. We walked everywhere and never felt unsafe though.

Clean Comfortable Motel

Wonderful motel off Route 66. Room was large, nicely decorated, and the bed was so comfortable. Free parking. There is a bar in the lobby that is super cute with a fun vibe and great cocktails. Shout out to Olivia and Jessica for their hospitality and friendliness during check in and check out. Would happily stay here again.

Check in was good at the desk/bar but I ended up being charged for the complimentary first drink! Hotel was clean but the lights are confusing since the tiny on off switch is black on a black background. The shower didn't heat up well and was difficult to use since the shower head was hard to use since you had to hold it in your hand since it wouldn't stay in the right position attached to the wall.
