Cute, quaint, lots of ammentities. Quick, easy process for check-in. Close to restaurants and gas stations. Cozy spacious and cool retro refurb on the 60s style motel. Would stay again if in the area.

"Nothing negative to say except the price"

The property was great. Very nicely managed and appointed

It was ridiculously expensive for a motel. We really didn’t have another option passing through. The rate and tax was super high. Never have I seen this for a motel.

This motel has a comfortable, nostalgic vibe. The rooms are clean and spacious. We stayed in a King room, which provided plenty of space for two people to get ready for the day with two sinks available. There is an outdoor pool that appeared well-maintained, although we didn’t use it during our stay. We had recently paid significantly more for another hotel in Traverse City, which didn’t even have a pool. If we're in the area again, we would definitely consider returning to this motel.

Super comfortable room, very considerate amenities. Love that you don't NEED to check in with staff but they are available if you do want/need to interact. But having a convenience room of supplies is an amazing touch. Good strong WiFi, great water pressure in the shower, comfy bed. I wish we had stayed more than 1 night this time
