If you’re diving at any local spring this is a great spot. Big rooms, hose out front, park right in front of your room, easy gear unloading…sink was a bit clogged but who really cares! Great stay, glad we choose it and we will definitely be back

Blue Gem motel was the perfect stay for us for our weekend event at Camp Kulaqua which was only a few minutes down the road. I was a lil hesitant since it was a “motel”. However the room was nicely decorated and spacious. The bed was a super comfy king bed. I travel a lot and was impressed with how comfortable I slept. The AC was nice and cold. The bathroom was on the smaller side but it did it’s job. I loved that the car was right in front of our room which made loading and unloading super easy. They also have Adirondack chairs which was a nice touch. A couple doors down there was an ice machine and a water bottle filler. The room had a mini fridge, small coffee maker and microwave. I was in need of a blower dryer and iron. The front office provided those without any issues. They actually gave me the option of iron or a nice steamer. Super nice front office staff. In the office they had a few complimentary snacks. And cold inexpensive drinks for $. If you’re looking for luxury or newer place to stay- this might not be it. But for us, it was perfect. We’ll be staying here in the future.

This is the second time I have stayed here. Last year 2025 the room was in such great shape. Clean and very representable. This year I stayed in the same room and you can tell the difference and how maintained it was from last year to this year. The biggest thing I just couldn’t believe how dirty the carpet was and it seemed it was not vacuumed at all.

Easy and comfortable

Clean rooms, comfortable beds. The staff were friendly and helpful. A nice little coffee bar with a refrigerator, etc., was located in the room. The outside back parking lot could use some lighting at night. The area was clean and I felt safe.
