Updated Old Route 66 Motel
This old Route 66 hotel has been updated, but could still use a bit of work in the bathroom. The tub and shower head need to be replaced. The room was clean and had everything you would need for an overnight stay. The sheets were very stiff, scratchy, and smelled big time of Clorox. At least they were clean! Breakfast was a very limited continental one. The staff was extremely nice and made sure we had every we needed.
Marcie, 1-night trip

Staff was great and after a long day on the road, appreciated.

Not my first time there.The property is clean and improvements are regularly made. The price is reasonable.
Roger, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean, comfortable, updated rooms. Close to Old Town. Missed breakfast due to the Balloon Fiesta the first day and missed it the second day because the small breakfast room was too crowded.
Amy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Charming property and very friendly staff. Breakfast was very simple but satisfactory.
Rick, 1-night trip

Won’t stay here again
The property is very run down and out dated. The reason for closing this hotel was for the in room jacuzzi which ended up being a large bath tub, the jets didn’t work very well. The chair in the room was broken, missing a wheel, which I didn’t realize until I sat on it. Inside and out the hotel needs attention. When it came time to check out there was no one available at the front desk to speak with regarding the issues in the room or to get my receipt.
marina, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Location hard to get to, street extremely noisy, didn't feel safe in area, no phone in room, breakfast lacking
Rodney, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Slightly disappointing.
We arrived to find that the indoor pool was being cleaned and would be out of action. This was disappointing and if we'd known we would NOT have booked the 2 night stay. Lesson learned to check before booking a hotel because of an amenity. Then the first night we found ourselves next to a noisy, inconsiderate guest who kept us from having a good night's sleep. Apart from that, the hotel was good, clean and comfortable. Our advice is stay here, but check that the pool will be open, and ask to NOT be given a room next to one of their regular guests who leave their room every half hour for a cigarette (slamming their door no matter what time of night)!
Martin, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great little hotel.
Gunther, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was a slightly older property with slightly older furnishings but very spacious, clean and comfortable. Plenty of outlets. The staff was great. Really enjoyed my stay. Only downsides were some street noise during the night and the pressure in the accessible shower was quite low.
John, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My feeling was that it was on a very busy road Central Blvd and traffic noisy until 11 or so, but did get quiet finally. Place was clean, room was large and nice. Staff running the place went out of their way to be helpful. I would stay there again.
