What guests say
8.8 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 146 guest reviews
Amigo Motor Lodge wins consistent praise for its retro charm, notably clean rooms, and warm staff, making it a genuinely enjoyable and affordable alternative to standard hotels. However, recurring complaints about a poorly maintained hot tub, a breakfast offering that falls short of what's advertised, and the inconvenience of shared or absent bathroom facilities suggest some upkeep and amenity gaps that don't fully match the price point. Guests who embrace the quirky, motel-style experience tend to love it; those expecting full hotel conveniences may be underwhelmed.
