A great little hotel

We always enjoy our stay at Happy Hollow. Quiet, relaxed, easy to walk to downtown, water springs are close by, and the mountain is your view!

Was in a great walking distance to bathhouse row.
Grace, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location of Happy Hollow is convenient to the hiking trails, the cold water spring, and a short walk to downtown. Staff was friendly and helpful. Bed was comfortable but the pillows were not firm enough for my needs. Kitchenette was a bonus. Cute retro motel with everything you need.
Sally, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great room and price
Julie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is just the cutest motel. Vintage but updated with comfy bedding and fluffy towels. Just lots of personality. The sweetest couple manage it and we learned so much about the history. The cold spring the motel is named for is steps away. Also right at downtown area but in a scenic quiet area. You can easily walk around town and the trails on the mountain above Central Avenue which is great since ALL of town is now paid parking. As another plus your fur babies ate also welcome. My daughter and I enjoyed our birthday girls weekend very much.
