Really fun old-school, mid-century modern hotel - with updated amenities. Woman who checked us in was welcoming, helpful and engaging. Although located off of a busy street, our room was quiet and very comfortable. The bar is stylish and unique. Would absolutely stay here again.

Although, this is an older hotel, the room was very clean. My only complaint was that my TV didn't work. Since I was only there one night I didn't report it but just left them a note.

Little thoughtful details put this place over the top for me! Staff sweet as can be. All of the vintage feel of the upgrades were spot- on and done with care. High end bath products. Products in the room to room to buy are adorable. Very comfy beds. Large rooms. The welcome and goodbye texts were very cool, very helpful. Loved, will definitely stay again!

Really great coffee at this motel! The treats in the room were a nice treat and decently priced. Also, the robes were unexpected bonus.
