This was the 3rd time we've stayed here. We moved to Tennessee from Palm Springs, Ca. When we found out that this hotel was inspired by Palm Springs, we had to book it, we love this place, our stay was fantastic, food was wonderful, and the drinks were terrific. The only thing that would make it more amazing would be if it was an adult only destination.

We really enjoyed the retro look of the motel! The lobby and restaurant are amazing! Our room was very comfortable and I loved the bathroom and shower. We had our breakfast in the restaurant there and our server, Michele, was awesome. She was so very friendly and accommodating! We enjoyed our breakfast, which was so much better than the continental breakfasts you get at other hotels! We checked out the pool and surrounding pool deck. It was really cool! Loved the look. We hope to go back for a longer visit sometime.

Give me a southern breakfast
The room was ok, Needed a microwave . Parking was a little challenging. I didn’t care for the food selection for our free breakfast. We only ate breakfast on site 1 morning, The other days we went out for breakfast

Great stay overall. Hotel in excellent location, within easy reach of everything we needed and the fact walkable to the Island was a bonus. Our room was clean, the beds really comfortable and despite being in a busy area we were plenty surprised how quiet it was. The children especially loved the pool, which was a real highlight for them.
Breakfast was a mixed experience. The set up was unusual - our room booking was for two adults and two children, but only two breakfasts were included as part of the room booking. We have never come across this before. The food itself was lovely, but service could be slow especially if you sit outside. At times it felt like we had been forgotten altogether.
Overall, though, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend the hotel for its location, pool and comfy beds.

The hotel was nice and clean. They offer a full breakfast. The pool was nice. The only complaint I had was the bartender running the pool bar kept disappearing. When I first got there I thought the bar was closed cause there was nobody around.

We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again! It’s conveniently located (directly across from the Island) which makes it easy to walk or drive to many places along the *****. The drink and breakfast options were great. We loved the retro style as well. The staff was very friendly and super helpful. Highly recommend staying here!
