We enjoyed our stay! The staff was so welcoming when we checked in, our room was clean and cozy! The cafe and arcade was a nice addition as well, this motel isn’t like others, it’s nice and chic! We definitely will be coming back for another weekend getaway trip.

Nice touch to have mile markers as room numbers! Definitely loved our room theme!

The property is extremely Instagram worthy. The beds were very comfy. Short drive to mission beach, and the marina. Bikes are available and you are very close to a great biking/walking path, they even provide the helmet and lock. Staff was super friendly.

The rambler is a cute family oriented motel. The staff was always nice and helpful. The pool and cafe were also really good and the discount at the café was also really nice perk.
