Stayed recently at Untold, which is really a modernized take on the old roadside motel. Doors open to the exterior, but the property has been thoughtfully updated. The lobby and patio sitting areas are very well done—pleasant spots to spend some time outside the room.
The rooms themselves have been nicely redone, with quality finishes and good attention to detail for what began as a motel structure. That said, at the going rate of around $400/night, the value can feel mismatched. Compared to other hotels at that price point, it’s hard to justify the premium, though I recognize some of that may be regional market pressure.
A couple of things to note:
• If you’re on the roadside rooms, expect noticeable traffic noise. Light sleepers should request a room away from the street.
• Booking directly through the hotel was surprisingly difficult. I first tried through staff on-site but was told I had to go online. When I checked the Untold website, the direct booking price was higher than third-party sites like Travelocity or Hotels.com. I even tried to book direct to help the property avoid fees, but they wouldn’t match the price and redirected me back to the third-party platform. That was disappointing.
Bottom line: A stylishly updated motel with nice shared spaces and comfortable rooms, but expect potential road noise and a high rate for the region/class. Booking directly is not traveler-friendly, which takes away from the overall experience.
