check in was smooth, then he walked me over to the room, made sure everything was turned on and ready for me, room was clean, and the bed was very comfortable, I would stay here again,
At first glance, this appears to be a standard road side motel. However, it was much more than that. The bed was very comfortable, the room was cute and clean, and the staff was friendly. Would stay here again.
This was one of ten places we stayed at on our RT66 adventure. The host was friendly & helpful. Our room had a large bathroom... We would stay there again & recommend to others. Thanks much for helping make our trip special.
Very clean room un a motel that is trying to provide a nostalgic experience of the Route 66 of the 50s and 60s. Beds were comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful.
This is a 1950s vintage motel and proud of it. It does not have the amenities that a more modern hotel has, but the room was clean, the bathroom was clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful, and the bed was comfortable. For a place to spend the night while on a trip, it has all one would need and at a very reasonable price. i would definitely stay here again.
Hangers for hanging your
clothes, soap for hand washing, shampoo & conditioner. Tripping hazard inside the front door. Turf replace outside the front door.
Other than that it was very homey.
comfortable bed. A little cramped but managed.
The staff was incredibly kind. The bed was very comfy. It was a great place to stop to get rest. The one gripe I have is no where for your pet to really use the restroom without have to dodge broken glass.

Front desk lady was helpful and responsive. Bathroom floor and plumbing was in need of maintenance, but the beds were clean and comfortable. The noise of trains passing nearby didn’t bother me, but guests should be aware of this if they are light sleepers. The motel sits right on Route 66, so request a room further away from the road if traffic noise bothers you.
