Cute little Route 66 hotel. Even had a record player in the room. Adorable place.

This is definitely a very old and previously shabby property, but many improvements have been made--fresh paint, better quality bedding and towels than I have at home and everything clean. The lobby needs work; it doesn't make a good first impression. But we would stay here again.

We enjoy staying in vintage or retro motels and this was great! Manager was so friendly and addressed our requests. In addition, location was within a mile of a brewery that we drove a few hours to experience...which was also retro! We want to support small business and local motels whenever possible. We recommend this one!

The reviews on the website made this look to be one of the better hotels in town, yet the only thing good about it was the comfort of the bed. It felt very sketchy and unsafe to stay. The locks wouldn’t work. I wouldn’t step in the shower for its condition. Well, it might have been clean. It didn’t feel clean.

I got to meet the owners of this classic motel. They are working to renovate the property and personally showed me to my room. It was a lovely change of pace from the generic hotel experience.

Loved the property and the old time ambiance! My only problem was the bed was too firm for je and no plug in in the bathroom

We took a mini staycation with our neighbor friends to enjoy a night in Grants. The motel was nice and we enjoyed the very friendly customer service by the night clerk. We like that the motel is pretty much in the middle of all the “to dos” in Grants. If we had known that pets were welcome we would have taken our little guy, Bassett Dachshund cross. Next time for sure.

An old motel advertised as a Route 66 throwback, the entire 66 Strip in Grants NM was a haunted ghost town, with this Hotel about the only thing left open. The businesses were decorated perhaps 30 years ago, but almost all were dilapidated and falling down. It was pretty clean, as advertised, but the manager had left her teen daughter in charge, a sweet girl but inexperienced. The room looked like it had not been updated since 1955. The TV and fridge worked, but was plugged in by an extension cord from down the wall. I was too tired to go find another hotel, as as all I wanted was a few hours sleep, I stayed there anyway. The big surprise was no hot water when I went to shower in the morning. So my question to Hotels.com is: How on earth did it get an 8.4 Very Good rating? Not sure I can trust the reviews anymore.

Staff was great, but property is older and showing it. Thin walls, old furniture and beds. Lots of road and railroad noise, but all hotels on that road would have that issue as well.

The owners are about 4 months into a remodel. Some items not yet completed. Ie bathroom floor and missing closet rod. The staff was exceptionally helpful. We just needed a basic sleepover on a road trip that was pet friendly. This is a very basic and nostalgic Route 66 style motel. The bed was comfy. Room clean.

The front desk manager was nice. Upon checking in, she said they don’t usually rent out this room. The wall heater did not work so she brought an old ceramic heater to the room. Extension cords running throughout the room. It was a cold night and the portable heater didn’t do much to warm the room. The immediate area was old, not much nearby.

While it’s clear the new owners are working hard to improve the motel, there is still a bit of work to go. I do hope they can make it a go though. The overall rating we saw online was really high so our expectations were far more then what we experienced.
