Whispering Sands Motel

Whispering Sands Motel

10/10 Excellent
"Don't kid yourself You're in the middle of nowhere. The staff were super cool. They tried to accommodate us with an early morning departure time and were fantastic to talk to. The room was very clean and it's probably a 50-year-old motel but your choices are this or a cabin"
