Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
It was clean, the staff was friendly, I liked the retro feel of the property, but the decor in our room was literally stuff of nightmares (a painting of a bloody, dead man who had been crushed by broken slabs of concrete). The staff removed the painting when I asked them to, especially as I was traveling with my two young kids. But that was highly unexpected and will honestly probably prevent me from booking here again.
Our stay was fine. Staff was very kind. Room was clean. But this enormous painting was on a wall facing the bed and was *terrifying.* I checked in with my two small children and quickly shuffled them out and requested the painting be removed. Yikes.

The room was quiet and we were surprised by how comfortable the beds were. They were firmer and very supportive compared to most of the hotel beds. We all had a good night's sleep.

I didn’t have daily room service, so when I ate all the toom snacks, I didn’t really get the VIP daily allowance and was charged. But I did enjoy the cherries growing in their courtyard. Breakfast across the street highly recommended. Staff was nice. Bed was a queen and we are used to King. I do recommend staying here.

The Astro is a modern take on the traditional motel with a green area to relax. The rooms are decorated with fun, bright colors and very comfortable accommodations. The breakfast buffet was stocked with fresh muffins and fruit, which was a nice change from the pancake machine. We enjoyed our stay.

Super cute & charming motel close to restaurants & fun. As a solo traveler, I felt safe in my space. I loved my morning elevated continental breakfasts & visiting with the staff. Very friendly. The Only reason I didn't give 5 stars, was that the tub drain was Super slow & the front door lock required 2 hands to unlock. I let the staff know. :)
