Title: A Charming Stay at Driftwood Motel
I recently had the pleasure of staying at Driftwood Motel, and I must say, it was a delightful experience! The accommodations are truly inviting, featuring a beautifully renovated retro style that adds a unique charm to the place. The attention to detail in the decor creates a warm and nostalgic atmosphere that made my stay feel extra special.
One of the highlights of my stay was the excellent complimentary breakfast. There was a great variety of options, and everything was fresh and delicious. It was the perfect way to start each day of my visit.
My only complaint would be the pillows. While everything else was fantastic, I found the pillows a bit lacking in comfort. A little upgrade in that department would make the experience even better.
Overall, I highly recommend Driftwood Motel for anyone looking for a cozy and charming place to stay. I look forward to returning!

Only concern, I didn’t know how to check in. We arrived late and no one was in office, luckily another guest saw me and explained, I didn’t see the signage. I do love the text check in but I’m glad I still had text and website had my right number. Love the process,

Great nights stay with only one personal observation… the bed was just a bit stiff, but we are comparing to our homes bed which is wicked fluffy. Folks may find our bed mattress to soft so all relative. Great redo of an old school motel, loved it. Thank You!

This is an old motel in the style popular in the 1950's and 1960's that has been completely remodeled and updated. The exterior of the building and the parking lot were beautiful and well-maintained. The recreational area in the center was completely updated. Everything is styled to give a retro-chic feel, and it works. The interior of my room was perfectly updated while keeping the original footprint. The floors appear to be LVP in a light wood grain that makes the room feel airy. The lighting in the room is updated and bright. Check-in was by text and room access was via pin code sent to me just prior to arrival.

I have travelled around the USA and always look for a clean nice motel and usually when you get to a lower price point you start to compromise on quality and cleanliness. Not with this property. I was super impressed, the owner and the manager met me at the office and the manager got me setup into the room which was super simple using a code rather than a key. There is a common area and they offered free coffee and donuts with a fridge to put your things as needed. Was super convenient. The room was updated and very very very nice, everything new, bed, shower, shelves bathroom all clean and super new. I cant recommend this enough. There needs to be one of these in every town along the way. I would never stay anywhere else
