This motel would be optimal for anyone who is on a tight budget, but a car or transportation arrangements would be necessary. It is very much like a California ‘motor hotel’ where the proprietor lives right behind the lobby and is the very best price in the area. This little motel has got a bit of 1970’s style and charm, is very clean, and the hospitality of the owner and staff is lovely and warm. The local organic health food market is directly across the street, and is a great place to grab breakfast, snacks, or lunch to stay or go. There are only 18 rooms at this motel, so if you are interested be sure to book early.
