Highly recommend!

We stayed in the pet-friendly room, which was perfect with our dog. Nice patio to enjoy, quick access to dog-potty spot. Convenient cafe/wine shop next door, parking right outside room, some rooms with garage attached. Friendly staff, very safe, quiet, pretty setting. Highly recommend.

This property located within steps of downtown historic Prescott is wonderful if you like an fifties drive-in motor lodge vibe, super cute, super clean, super comfortable, and super convenient. This particular unit even came with it’s own parking garage which is great if you are on an extended roadtrip and leave a lot of stuff in your car. If you like, they offer self-checkin and checkout which was very simple and convenient. The units each have their own small patio for lounging or dining. Decorated beautifully with comfortable bed and even an electric fireplace for heat or ambience, this is a must stay in Prescott. I certainly will be visiting again.

This was a super cute property. We were so excited to stay here. Until we walked in our room and found 2 large spiders occupying the room (one in the shower and the other one right next to the toilet). The employee at check in killed one for us and I killed the other. But we were then freaked out all night we'd see more. The bed was too hard for our liking and the pillows were massive in size, which made it hard to sleep comfortably. We'd like to come back if the listed stuff was fixed.

Charming bungalow style motor court right out of the 1950's that is clean, quiet, and reasonably priced. Like having my own open garage for parking. Great location too, easy walk to downtown Prescott.

This place is awesome! I love our groovy room (#13) and there are so many shops and restaurants that are a walkable distance. The check in was easy and we got a great dining recommendation. I highly recommend staying.. not sure why some sites have 2 stars.
