Town Motel

A few blocks north of Plantation Motel on the same commercial stretch of South State Road 7, Town Motel has operated under independent ownership for approximately 38 years, putting its roots in the late 1980s. Like its neighbors along this corridor, it belongs to a small surviving class of owner-operated motor motels that once lined South Florida’s pre-interstate highways in far greater numbers, most of which have since been torn down, converted to other uses, or bought out by national chains chasing the same commercial land.

Public information on Town Motel is limited. The business does not appear to maintain its own website, and the contact information on file is restricted to a street address and phone number, both consistent with how small independent motels in this price category typically operate: minimal overhead, minimal marketing, and a reliance on repeat local business and highway visibility rather than online bookings or third-party reservation platforms. Travelers interested in a stay should call directly to ask about current room rates, availability, and any amenities, since none of that can be independently verified from public listings at this time. That said, a business does not stay open under one name on a competitive commercial strip for nearly four decades without a base of returning guests.

Geographically, Town Motel sits in the same western Broward corridor that borders Davie, close to Nova Southeastern University, the Broward County government and court complex, and the retail strip that runs along State Road 7 through Plantation and into Fort Lauderdale. It is a working commercial corridor rather than a tourist strip, which helps explain why a motel like this one, built for practicality rather than vacation appeal, has been able to hold on for so long in a market where flashier, better-financed competitors come and go on a regular basis.

Its value to this directory is straightforward. Davie itself has no independent motels left standing under its own address, only a run of national franchise hotels clustered near the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and along Griffin Road. Town Motel, a short drive away in Plantation, represents the kind of small, independently owned lodging option that once would have existed inside Davie’s own borders and still exists just outside them today. Anyone booking here should approach it as a true no-frills budget stay, and should confirm the basics, room condition, current pricing, and check-in procedures, directly with the property before making the trip.
