This was by far one of the absolute best motels we’ve stayed at while traveling cross-country!
Nope, I lied… it was the best!!
A cozy room that was very well maintained with all of the amenities we needed.
I’m a big fan of the smaller establishments and the ease of parking directly in front of your door.
If you’re looking for a spot to stay I highly recommend you consider resting your head here at the Vindel Motel!
This is a great little motel. Pool was out of service, which was a bummer but the beds were comfy and within walkimg distance to the ferry! Will definitely stay again!
The room was clean and had good amenities. Check in was very easy, they just give you a code for the door and you never have to see an employee. Bed was uncomfortable.
I give this place the credit it deserves for what it is. It’s not fancy, but it’s is affordable, clean, comfortable and a great place for an overnight stop.
I can't say enough about how happy we are to have discovered this great place. It is super clean, great location, walkable to the bridge, walkable to restaurants and other attractions, yet away from high traffic and crowds. Very convenient check in process! No hesitation on booking again, and in fact, can't wait for the next chance to do so!
We are return guests. It’s clean and quiet, with a convenient location and easy self check-in and check-out. The beds are a little bit firm for our liking but the other factors outweigh the beds so we will be back again.
