The Legendary Raccoon Motel did not disappoint! We stayed in the one bedroom one bath, but this place is a whole condo, not anything like a studio at first glance. The living room is so spacious, everything is so new and clean, I would literally...Read More

This is the place to see rising star of new music. The staff is exceptional. You always leave feel you really got to know the musicians on a personal level. Don't miss your chance to say "I saw them at the Raccoon Motel!"

Didn’t eat there, but went for the drinks and Rory Scovel comedy show. It’s a dark and grungy type almost underground bar lol. Somehow they got like 150 people in there, but the show was pretty amazing.
