Wonderful, Reimagined Motel

This is a great motel that reminded me of days gone by. Pulling right up to the door of your room is so out of date today, but here that's exactly what you do. From the check-in procedure of writing down all your information, to the actual key (a real key) to your door, this motel transports you back to a different era. Yes, there are flat screen TV's, and WiFi passwords. But there are also no plugs in the bathrooms, but awesome vintage style bathtub/shower tiles. No USB ports for easy charging, but lamps with plugs in their bases. No fans in the bathrooms, but actual working windows to slide open to let out steam. In short, stay here. The staff are super friendly and welcoming. And a trip to the past doesn't have to be a bad thing.
