Classic Americana.

Cute "roadside" classic motel in good condition, clean and comfortable enough. It's in an amazing location, directly across from the Bridge view and two blocks from downtown shopping and restaurants. Staff is friendly and parking is easy.

The room was not as expected or what I chose on line. Very small with no table. Thin walls - But a beautiful setting and you don't go there to sit in your room!

Great overnight stay

Perfect place to stay for a overnight stay. Great customer service. Clean. Free shuttle to ferry. Can buy your ferry ticket at front desk which saves time. We were on first floor. Next time will ask for second floor

I didn’t even realise this was a motel until the desk clears mentioned it at checkout. I typically choose hotels with free breakfast, but due to the popular and overpriced location, I went for this accommodation. I would absolutely stay here again, and have no problem recommending it. Bakery options around the corner conpensate for no breakfast. Clean, simple rooms.
