We haven’t stayed at a “motel” in forever because they are usually a little sketchy. We loved this adorable morel. It was renovated and cute and I would stay here again and again. They had a very nice game center in the courtyard. The rooms were spacious and your car is right outside your door.

this is an older motel that has been renovated. Our room was very clean and very comfortable. They have an automatic door that you access on your phone. After we came in the manager, came and checked in on us and actually gave us the keys in case the door lock did not work later in the evening. This hotel was close to everything. We enjoyed our stay here no frills just a clean and comfortable room.
Nicely updated. Staff was very helpful. I don’t do well with memory foam beds but other than that it was great

AC unit in the room was noisy and must’ve had mold inside b/c I woke up with stuffy nose and feeling sick. AC was not able to cool the room adequately even on the lowest setting. The bed was way too soft for me. But on the positive side, the staff was very friendly. The room was clean and had coffee, pot, refrigerator, bottled water, and other amenities if you needed it. And the price was right, and it was convenient to the main street restaurants and shops.
The service was exceptional! The place was an old motel that had been remodeled. I liked it. It was a simple family owned motel. No frills. But they did offer snacks for breakfast.
Amazing remodel! It is an old motel with a great update. It was clean. And the front desk persons was very kind and helpful. I would do it again and that's the real test!
The gaming area was soooo fun! Everything was easily accessible and it’s located in the perfect spot to enjoy all the local springs! Friendly staff and the rooms were very nice!
It’s honestly such a nice motel, right next to the springs. You can do no better than this place if you’re not trying to camp at Ginnie Springs. Just read the reviews. Great price.

Just fine
You get what you pay for, although I wish it went a lot further these days. But the bed was clean and the sink water was warm (did not shower). A few odd hairs here and there. But totally fine! They even tried to make a cute ambience with art and some plants.
