Quaint mid-century motor inn on the Western edge of Fredericksburg's historic Main Street. Rooms are period-authentic and spacious. Ours had a picture window view of the nature preserve behind the motel with deer and other local wildlife. Walking distance to nextdoor German-themed restaurant, and just a 5-minute drive from restaurants and shops at the heart of the historic district. Reasonably priced, and friendly, accomodating staff.

The staff at the property were professional and friendly. My issue is the cost of the room is not competitive at all with the level of service. No cleaning of rooms, we had to get towels and toiletries ourselves daily, pool closed due to staffing issues and no breakfast. All of this should be provided for the cost charged. This hotel is not remotely worth the money.

Older property but great stay

Older version vintage hotel. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. Outdated but cost and service was great based on the type of property it was. We will definitely stay again if visiting the area.

This is a motel on the edge of town. It had many positive reviews, but now I wonder how old they are. Everything could use an update—it bordered on shabbiness. I’d advise not paying in advance as we did.

Good motel, good price.

The motel is not new or updated, but it's safe and clean, has a great view, and it's located really close to the downtown and restaurants. It's located on the main street, but in not very crowded area. It's a good option if you just going to use it to sleep.
