The room was what we expected. Staff was PHENOMENAL and what made the trip worth it. They were very helpful and ready to assist with any needs. Unfortunately, the pool was being serviced during the time here, but Kimberly was a problem solver and gave us options on where to go. I thought the lobby was really cool and retro with arcade games. Coffee was great as well. I would definitely recommend the stay.

Room was spotless, cafe was great, parking was easy. Wanted to stay non "big chain" for a night & glad we did. Had a suite, very spacious - only downside, no microwave in a big kitchenette.

The service was great. Close to the water, highway, stores, TJ border. Free parkings a plus. The room was clean, the first room the AC wasn't working so they moved us promptly and appreciated the service. Liked the firepit & pool area.

This was our second time staying at the Rambler, it was clean inside, and comfortable, the wall art and colors were fun to see as well. Staff was very friendly during check in and checkout. Only issue the walls are super thin and motel guests have no volume control at 3:45 am. Hard to sleep with the noise. Also I think the cafe is understaffed, we were waiting to order food and coffee and no one came out to greet us or take our oder. We figured the cashier was also the cook as a couple of people sitting down had food and coffee. And a couple in front of us was waiting to order. We waited aa good while and left. We really wanted to stay there and eat, but maybe next time. Overall the motel is very nice for people on a budget, and we'll definitely stay there again.
