Hidden gem in Norman. Affordable and good location. Although the surrounding area is not very nice and the motel could be updated, it was very clean and well kept with everything in working order. Would stay here again. Staff was lovely and accommodating.

2/10 Poor

There was construction just infront of my room. They started working very early and it was impossible for me to focus on my works. This was my worst hotel experience. I do not recommend to anybody.

This hotel was great. We were in Norman for our son's family weekend at OU. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We'd definitely stay there again.

Pennies from Heaven.
Staff (Mel), was very personable and friendly. She called me to confirn my reservation letting me know what time I could check in till. And, she told me of all the places I may be interested in doing, as far as attractions and different types of restaurants we might want to eat at. I recommend this little piece of heaven for those of you who pinch your pennies and want to save on the hotel room. We had more money to play with @ Riverwind Casino!!!!!! They even have a little casino named, Thunderbird. Go figure!!!!!

Clean vintage motel
Convenient location with a vintage 50's decor. Clean motel with adequate space. Carpet very worn and that detracted from the rating significsntly. If that were fixed, it would br quite charming.
