Sweet little true "motel". Parking was right in front of the room. Adorable rooms - we got a family reservation with 2 rooms, 2 tvs, and three big beds. Incredibly comfortable. Good air conditioning in both rooms. Very kind owners with great suggestions of where to go and where to eat in the area.

Cute, clean and convenient

This older style motel has been run by the same family for 45 years. The hosts were very helpful and friendly and the place is super clean. Very well maintained. We would definitely stay here again.

There are few excellent mom and pop motels these days, but this is one of them. The owners have been giving this place TLC for over 45 years. It’s exceptionally clean, the bed was new and very comfortable, and being able to park outside my door is something I really like. If you like a quality experience with a nostalgic feel, this is the place! BTW, the nearby food options are walkable and varied as fast food and fine dining.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

A place to avoid

The place was almost empty- only 3 or 4 people staying in the motel. I can see why. Very run down. Absolutely horrible king sized bed that should have been retired many years ago. Room was boiling hot since the wall AC unit had not been running. It took nearly 4 hours for the room to cool down to a tolerable extent. Room fridge was just slightly cool

The staff member at check-in was kind and efficient. The building was older but well kept up and clean. Basic breakfast (cereal, fruit, yogurt, bagels, etc.) was good. Plus, they had sleds and wax that we could borrow for our trip to White Sands National Park.
