Wonderful little hotel for a weekend getaway. Very cute atmosphere and friendly staff. Very close to tons of great shopping and dining options. We would definitely stay here again.
The motel is located in the perfect area, with most entertainment walkable. Everything felt perfectly safe. Parking was great. The lobby is very small (non existent), but the friendly staff that great you make up for what the lobby lacks in decor and warmth. There aren’t microwaves or coffee makers in the rooms but there’s both in the communal lounge area. I had no issues throwing on my slippers and walking downstairs to use them as needed. One challenge is not having an elevator to the second floor, but if you need accessible access you can request a room on the main level and use the ramp and lift to access it. Overall it’s budget friendly, clean, quiet, and in a great location with amazing staff.
Beautiful room, beautiful hotel, right in the heart of Broadway. I stay here every year with my pup and we both love it! The coffee station in the morning is bonus :)
