Pictures are deceiving room was much smaller , toilet did not flush properly , no smoke detectors in room and worst of all the tv did not have any cable or wifi., we were told about the television and cable after we paid for room so we could not cancel and leave , it was a terrible stay

Vintage charm meets modern design. The exterior reminds you of a mid century roadside motel while the interior rooms are renovated and stylish complete with everything you need. The staff is friendly and professional. They make you feel right at home.
