Amazing Retro Motel with Comfy Beds!
This hotel was my favorite during my cross country road trip.
It appeared to be run by either one or two young couples who were super nice and helpful. They took great care of the grounds and the rooms were clean and spacious.
The motel itself is a single story. I was using a scooter while battling a broken foot and had no issues getting around the parking lot or in/out of the room. There was a 1-2" curb from the parking lot directly in front of my room. There was probably a ramp at the end of the walkway, but I didn't need it for my scooter.
There was a grab-n-go style breakfast in the morning with plenty of options for anyone. There are also several food options a few minutes down the road for lunch or dinner.
Parking was easy. The bed and pillows were very comfortable! Perhaps most importantly, I felt safe as a female traveler with a dog. I took puppers outside at night with no worries and she had a clean, safe area to go potty.
Highly recommend!

The first set of key cards did not work; the desk clerk had to program a second set. During the first night, the toilet stopped flushing. I fixed the problem by reconnecting the chain to the flush handle. It came apart again on the last night. The housekeeping staff was on top of things making sure we had fresh towels and letting maintenance know about the toilet.

Still good!
Our stay went very well. The room was clean, and met our request to be placed away from the highway. We travel with two puppies and the ability to go from the car into our room and to a grassy area was perfect. We have been staying here off and on for years. It's operatinging well with this management.

Having read a previous review that the property was exceptional, we chose to stay at the Trade Winds Motel. The review was correct! Every aspect from the comfort of the queen size beds, the cleanliness of the bathroom and dining areas, the friendly greeting from the owner and all other aspects made for an extremely pleasant stay, especially for the price and sense of comfort we experienced. Highly recommend!
