The motif of this property is interesting and unique. All of the framed posters of old westerns/movies were fun to see.

The hotel room smelled musty, but we turned the fan on and it improved. Security was in the parking lot and shooed away some kids that wanted money. We came in at night, so be aware of your surroundings. It took 10 minutes to check-in. Not enough clerks. Even with these issues, the property is charming. The owners have invested in nice furnishings and we are fans. The restaurant had good food too. We loved all the film history photos and memorabilia.
