The Rambler Motel

Developed around a modest budget and a calculated notion of the return of retro motels, The Rambler was rehabbed from a Good Nite Inn into a bold, 70’s inspired roadside motel in Chula Vista, California. The upcycled fit features original architecture dressed up with splashy, on-brand environmental design elements like bright yellow mile-marker doors, era-centric guest room wall coverings and mid-century modern furnishings.

Today the successful flip attracts families and influencers alike to strike a pose at the various pieces of artwork adorning the space and successfully competes in the market with 84% ADR increase since its inception in 2019 and growing.
