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!

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.
