Best Western Route 66 Rail Haven
A nice older motel that has done a wonderful job of embracing their historic Route 66 history. Rooms have been updated nicely. Everything was clean & updated except for the heating and cooling unit, which looked grimy and had that burnt dust smell when turned on the heat. Take them up on the offer ...
