Trixie Motel is an American reality television docuseries that follows Trixie Mattel (the stage name of drag queen Brian Firkus) and her then-partner David Silver as they buy and renovate a rundown motel in Palm Springs, California.

[3] Mattel based the aesthetics of the motel on her drag character, her web series UNHhhh with Katya Zamolodchikova, and her beauty brand Trixie Cosmetics, among other inspirations.

According to Mattel she spent around $1.9 million to purchase the space and $500,000 to renovate it, enlisting designer Dani Dazey to collaborate on the project.

Additionally, many of the guest stars from the season came to the housewarming party, including Orville Peck, Nicole Byer, Nicholas Scheppard, Jenson Titus, and Katya.
