+We greatly enjoyed our stay at the Rocket Motel. It was clean, and the water pressure was great. The hosts, Don and Brenda, were so sweet and kind, and it's clear that they love what they do and they love their customers.

“Great retro motel with updated, very clean rooms and friendly staff.”
+The motel was very clean and nicely updated with cool retro mid-century decor and vibes. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. It was great to charge our EV with a NACS(Tesla) charger. The room was nicely appointed, well maintained and one of the cleanest rooms we have encountered in our travels. We stayed in the large King suite and it was very nice to have the kitchenette and couch/seating area.
−Parking was convenient but a little tight for our room at the front of property at the street entrance. Would be great to have rolls/bagels/fruit to go with the complimentary coffee in the cool retro lobby.
