Tucson International Airport is the nearest major airport, about 156 kilometers away.
Best for
This motel suits budget-conscious road travelers and border-crossing visitors, given its location a mile from the U.S.-Mexico border and its no-frills, affordable rooms. It also works well for families, since children 17 and under stay free with a parent, and for guests who value simple comforts like free morning coffee, free parking, and an outdoor pool over full-service amenities.
Travel tips
Because the motel sits directly along Highway 191, it's convenient for guests driving through the border region rather than flying in, since the nearest airport, Tucson International, is nearly 100 miles away. Several local bus stops, including a Transfer Center and the Visitors Center/Douglas Police Dept. stop, are within a few hundred meters, making it easy to explore Douglas without a car. Numerous restaurants, including Mexican fare and a steakhouse, are within a 10-15 minute walk, so dining options are close at hand even without a vehicle.
