    Speed bump
    Natalie S.

    This is a cute property for 1-2 nights, but not more. It's a small property that is more about image than what it's worth. It might be more worth it if you have a dog with their lenient policies. So here's the good and bad.... We stayed for 3 nights, it was cute but small. There is only one bedside table in the middle of the room, with minimal outlet access near the bed . The walls are thin, you could hear every step of the people upstairs and the ceiling squeaked. There were only two bath towels provided with 2 towels for a double queen room. We stopped by to see if we could check in early and the desk clerk said they'd text us if our room became ready early. We never got a text so we showed up at 4 and she greeted us again. While checking us in, she admitted she forgot to text us to tell us our room had been ready. Not a big deal, but the start of an example about the lack of attention to detail. The room comes with a fridge, however it is TINY! It is meant to fit a 6 pack and does not have a freezer. This is not disclosed online. The property is pretty, they clearly have put work into making it a vibe filled place to hangout. There is a heated pool and a pool bar, plus a taco bar! The fire places are a nice touch and we enjoyed them each evening. The battery went out in our smoke detector one afternoon and they responded quickly to get it replaced . The staff were responsive when we needed anything! The parking lot however needs some attention. There is a speed bump in the middle of the parking lot that multiple cars bumped into in the time we stayed. There are chunks missing from the bottom of peoples cars hitting it from how it's built. Overall, it's a cute place for Instagram pictures but not worth staying more than a night or two.

    First the good: this is an incredibly affordable hotel, with comfortable rooms and lots of parking. The theme is really fun. Love the disco balls! Large walk-in showers, bikes and telescopes to borrow (though it was very tricky to set up the telescope), and there are fire pits and lawn games that might be fun in the summer. You also get welcome drinks--water or PBR (or both), and there's a cute gift shop with astronaut-themed snacks. My biggest complaint is that the on-site restaurant apparently randomly closes, so if you're planning on relaxing at the hotel after a long drive, might be best to pack a cooler just in case!

    Comfortable, affordable overnight stay. Pleasant, warm retro style rooms. I slept great!

    We had a great experience spending 4 nights at this motel when we came to visit from NY. The rooms are newly renovated and retro themed. We loved the disco ball and igloo cooler in our room. We love that it's dog friendly and they have a good sized dog park. We got to use one of their telescopes and they even went out of their way to get us an extra blanket. Everyone we met at the front desk was so kind and helpful. We had an amazing experience and definitely recommend checking it out

    This retro hotel was so cool , total 70's vibe and very fun kitschy outdoor pool ! The surrounding area had some great coffee shops & restaurants, we also loved the taco shop that was onsite.

    We Love Booking Boutique Hotels during our travels! There's something about a quirky, artsy space that someone strategically designed to have an experience, that is clean, but fun. We wanted something reasonable in price for a quick day trip. This one looked fun, had good amenities, and plenty of parking. We got a "welcome drink" upon arrival (PBR) and settled in for the night. Room was clean, close parking, and fire pits were available on site. There's a heated pool, and a taco joint on site as well (vegan options and hours are limited). A few things I want to share that I didn't love about this place: 1. Walls are very thin. We were on floor level and heard not only walking above us, but also our neighbors TV until late hours 2. Robes were touching the ground when hanging 3. AC did not work well; it cycled a lot, but had a hard time cooling the room down to even 74 degrees 4. We found a baby centipede in our bathroom, while barefoot. Given there had been a lot of rain recently, and that causes insects to come out. He was squished, but I would not have appreciated our toddler getting stung. Overall, this was a fun little room for the night, but I would have struggled to get through another.

    There is no complimentary breakfast, but Flag has a bevvy of great restaurants to fit the bill…read more I booked a Saturday night stay on HotelTonight for only $75! Yes, there is a utility surcharge fee 7.77 per night regardless of where you book, but after taxes and fees, it was still less than $100! This is a solid choice if you don't plan on spending your time at the inn. My bed was comfortable, the room was clean (even though it had the scent of yesteryear), the employees I interacted with were all helpful, the parking was ample, and yes... you can walk across the parking lot to Porky's to grab a pitcher. There's also a gas station mini mart that's close. And yes, there are a few not so glamorous aspects of staying here. The walls are thin, and you'll hear every loudmouth in the hallway, as well as every footstep of the behemoths staying above you. The shower pressure could be considered in the "spittle" family. The jacuzzi is located inside a small building to the back of the pool, and elicits smells of those childhood days spent at the YMCA. The pool is pretty nice if you find yourself there alone... but don't get too comfy, because a large troupe of teenagers with awkward social skills is heading your way. And so is that creepy old man who stares at you with a towel draped over his head, as if that really conceals his disturbingly unending gaze. And don't forget that young boy, who loves repeatedly jumping into the shallow end, with a splash that never seems to miss hitting you, where ever you may be. No Pets Allowed. Smoke free property

    Blue, the front desk associate, has some of the worst communication skills I've seen in customer…read moreservice. He is extremely hostile and quick to raise his voice to yell at customers. He seems mentally unbalanced and is not a good face for the business. I made a reservation online and arrived with a small camper in tow. Blue immediately assured me that it wouldn't be possible for me to park anywhere on the premises, though I'd already paid to stay the night. When I asked "surely you aren't that busy, the parking lot has many open spaces", he raised his voice to yell at me that as a policy they do not accept oversized vehicles and I needed to find somewhere else to stay. I am a young woman traveling alone and grown men yelling at me is scary, so I left the premises to find another hotel to stay at. I called the agency I booked the hotel through to cancel the reservation. Blue reassured them on the phone that he can't do a refund because one guest can only take up 2 parking spaces. My car and camper can detach and take up exactly 2 spaces. This detail would have been helpful to hear initially instead of being yelled at and shooed away so I could resolve the situation. Because I booked another hotel room at Blue's insistence, and then he refused me a refund. I returned to the hotel to clarify with Blue that I would have liked to know the bit about being able to take up 2 parking spots because I could have fixed the problem and stayed there instead of paying for 2 hotels, but he started raising his voice at me, telling me the blatant lie that he "was trying to tell me that, but I wouldn't listen", and continued to scream at me to get off his property. As long as this man is working here, I'd recommend staying far away from this business. I've added some photos of the space in the parking lot for reference.

The staff when I arrived was nice and welcoming. Lee was working and she's absolutely wonderful. This being said- I switched rooms three times within the first 10 minutes. First room was cleanish but smelled of smoke and although it's listed as smoke free- the room next to it was cracked a foot and there was a man smoking in his doorway. The second rooms beds were made but the bedding was unusually wrinkled, I pulled both back and there was body fluids and tons of hair all over the sheets. The third room that we actually stayed in under the repeated phrase of "it's just one night and we don't have to shower", the linens were clean but it was gross. Phone had dirt all over it and was sticky, there was crumbs all over the floor (didn't realize it until I took my socks off and walked to the bathroom and then we put shoes on anytime we walked on the floors afterwards), there is dirt build up everywhere and in every nook and cranny of the room, it looks like at one point they painted or resealed bathtubs and they are all peeling, there is stuff wiped all over the walls, the elevator/stairs/everywhere that's a common area is gross. The people diagonal under us were outside drinking and being loud until at least 2am. Never again. I already cancelled our two upcoming reservations we had there.

This was two items they charged an extra $50 for. The "fan" was supposed to cool the room after 30 minutes but blew hot air out no matter what setting. This demonstrated lack of any oversight or care that a room in such deplorable conditions was even offered to a paying guest. I demanded my money back or that they make it right. We paid for a 6 night stay. The next room they moved us to was much better. The microwave was clean and the fridge worked. Turned on the "fan" and the room cooled to near freezing. We stayed our 6 nights. I believe this place has a long term stay area were there are sketchy people that I see holding signs on street corners. And I firmly believe they have substandard conditions there because they claimed their air conditioning was broken. Maybe in that one building but no fan will ever cool a room to near freezing. That's air conditioning. I believe they have a guest section where everything works and then a long term stay where they could care less that anything works. The location is convenient to a highway, Walmart, fast food and restaurants. Parking is plentiful. After a certain time you must speak to a kiosk with someone on video as the front desk is installed.
