Good stay
Good stay. The caboose was actually very spacious with lots of places to stick suitcases. More hooks would be nice and a detachable shower head would also be nice. One of the beds was decently comfortable but the other was pretty bad. Would stay again.

I have wanted to stay at the Rick Bush motel for a very, very long time because of the caboose itself. I thought they did a great job at making all modern amenities available in such a small space. The theme was what’s most important to me.
