Located just minutes from downtown (well to be fair - everything is..) we found a wonderful little motel with great Mid-Century architecture that has been lovingly restored, maintained and updated by owners Davy and Walter. The motel has been refinished and every bungalow is unique in terms of size and layout but all have access to the heated swimming pool, and all are furnished with great pieces from 20th century design icons like Charles Eames etc. Click here to view the hotel’s website to see some photos of the other bungalows or to make a reservation...
