The hotel was very beautiful and eccentric. I loved my room (Standard King With Kitchen). It was very cozy yet spacious and felt like home. Staff were extremely friendly and checked in to ensure I was enjoying my stay. The location is extremely convenient as it is a 5 min drive from the train station. There are many walkable restaurants and shops include a brief walk to CVS. Overall I really enjoyed my time here and will definitely stay again!

Really cute and fun retro feeling spaces inside as well as outside. Plenty of spaces to sit and relax, including a new bar, music room, pool tables, firepits with lounge areas outside. The parking lot has been redesigned to make lounging outside safer and more private for guests. Comfortable rooms and beds. Very personable and friendly staff.

Simple, modernized and clean motel-style arrangements. We were in town for a wedding and appreciated the convenient location and pricing that this offered. This place offered a cool, unique vibe with a bar and vinyl listening room which we didn’t take advantage of due to schedule, but could be a plus if you’re into that. I would stay here again or recommend it to others. Staff was friendly

The Royal Oak Motel is a remodeled roadside motel with a retro vibe. Our signature standard room had a king-sized bed, microwave, refrigerator and a kitchen sink and counter with two barstools: there were two patios with fire pits and games. Also a pool table room and entertainment room. Room service. Staff at desk and small bar were great. Within walking distance to downtown area with much to do. One of my favorite places I have stayed.
