South of the Border Motor Inn

Amazing overnight stay. This place feels like a fever dream. My husband got the honeymoon suite for my birthday. The room was well tended and clean. All of the staff seemed to be in a trance. The indoor pool was nice and warm. I didn’t want to leave. Ever.

This motel has a fair price for the location. it is fairly comfortable, could definitely use an update but then again so could most of South of the border. sob is a cute tacky little place that for some reason I can’t help but to love. it’s got character and while it might be Fallin apart here and there and everywhere. i love it. I hope they start fixing it up! It’s showing it’s age badly! This motel though isn’t all that bad. it’s not fancy by any means but they do have an indoor pool. I kept hearing fire works go off while the kids were trying to sleep and I was upset about that. I called the front desk and they were trying to figure out who’s doing it because it is against the rules here. well it was very hard to sleep and I don’t feel like I got my money’s worth only because I guess they didn’t end up finding out who did it and I was kept up most of the night! But I will still try to stop here every time we come thru! It is worth checking out atleast once. it’s like it is its own small town lol. weird and worth visiting

This is the best motel stay I’ve ever had! The room was freezing when my dad and I got there, the room had a old timey look and smell to it (which is good!), the car port was very convenient… everything was just: PERFECT! I will definitely stay here again

So needed to stay in the area and the choices are very slim. This seemed to be the best of what options we had. Upon check in I was given only 1 key, when I asked for a 2^nd I was told they didn’t have enough keys due to event in the area. Really??? Anyways, got to room, a King bed and 2 doubles and was pleasantly surprised at the size of the room. It’s actually 2 adjoining rooms with a hallway between them with mini fridge and microwave. The room comes with 2 full baths which is nice also. This is an old motel, really gives you the feel of something the Griswold’s would stay in during their trip to Wally World. Nothing fancy, but serves the purpose for an overnight stay. Kinda neat to be able to walk to the gift and souvenir stores around as well. A/​C being cold and a carport to park under directly in front of your room are pluses. I would not go out of my way to recommend this, but at the same time would not discourage someone from staying here. If you need an economical room, directly off I95 and a lil’ 60’s nostalgia intrigues you, check this place out. Oh yeh, indoor pool is decent size and appears clean.
