Totally retro with modern upgrades
Loved this unique old school travel lodge style hotel. It had all the modern comforts and was very clean. Great continental breakfast with a few warm up options. Great coffee!

Great hotel, but some issues ...
The hotel was really nice. However, there were a couple security and comfort issues. This review is specific to the Gatsby Suite. The windows in the bathroom had no privacy. These windows were high but you could easily see in/out. There was an attempt at a curtain in the toilet but nothing for the shower. The second concern is using traditional keys for the door. The deadbolt and handle lock used the same key and was accessable from the outside. There was no peephole or inside door latch/swing botl. We would have felt more comfortable with electronic lock and a deadbolt that was only accessible from inside. The hotel is really nice, we really enjoyed the stay, the cleanliness and the staff. I just hope that these issues are fixed for future guests.

Great place to spend a night
We stay here very often on our way to Arizona. Some people also told us they also did stay at this place. It has a theme, and every room is different. The bed was very, very comfortable. Very clean and quiet place. We really love it

Loved the nostalgia of the inn. Great service, nice people, comfortable bed. It could use better lighting in the area in front of the bathroom but considering the age of the inn it’s understandable.
