This place is awesome! I love our groovy room (#13) and there are so many shops and restaurants that are a walkable distance. The check in was easy and we got a great dining recommendation. I highly recommend staying.. not sure why some sites have 2 stars.

An older place but renovated and upkept very nicely. The room was spacious and there was a garage to park your vehicle, which is nice. Walking distance to Whiskey Row.

The Motor Lodge is a nice change from the generic chain hotels. It is minutes from downtown Prescott where there are lots of restaurants, shops and nightlife. Fun kitschy local business.

Loved the retro vibe. Be prepared for the parking situation. The carports will only accommodate a very small car

This is not your typical motor lodge. Kitchy, comfortable and fun! We love the vibrant colors, gathering at the fire pit and great location, walkable to Whiskey Row.

Room was clean. Rather close to the street so we did get some noise. Bedrooms were small with no outlets. Bathroom was very tight.

This hotel was so cute and comfortable. Our room was not big, but it was cozy. There is a gas fireplace that warms the room. The hotel is at the end of Whiskey Row and a nice half mile walk to the St. Michael's restaurant. The only negative was the small shower.

Very nice and friendly staff. Also responded within 15 minutes at night to replace a room heater that had stopped working.
