Difficult to find as small sign not lit up. I had to go to another motel up the road to collect the key. This info was not provided before arrival. I had to ring for directions after using Google Maps and then got told to come to the DuPont for key.

Might help if the check in instructions mentioned that you need to check in and pick up the key down the road at Du Pont motel. Would save an inconvenience and time.
