My husband and I were traveling Route 66 and decided to stay here. It's an original motel on the route. It brought back memories of my childhood. I would stay here again!

It was what you would expect of a budget hotel property. Nothing special, although the room was remodeled in the not-too-distant past. Front desk staff and check-in and out seemed a little off-putting, not the friendly, helpful sort that I was used to. The biggest downside was their guest policy. I was advised by a rather large sign inside the very SMALL lobby, that only the named persons on the card that you filled out could occupy the room. What is the deal with this???? I have had this happen at a couple hotels I booked this trip, but I really don't like this. What if I was visiting family or friends and they wanted to come over for an hour or three? Given this policy, they couldn't. I guess I will have to really pay attention to this policy when booking in the future.

I liked it was ground floor rooms that u can park right at ur door. Didn't like how so many people was just randomly roaming the parking lot and standing in front of my door. I didn't feel safe and then to top it all off I got kicked out anyhow because I said that I had somebody in my room last time which I don't know what happened but I didn't even get to stay

it was ok. Don't go if your not a smoker. I used to smoke so that part didn't bother me much. But i had to go get towels because all I had was 1 wash cloth. It was a little cool this moring and I froze, couldn't shower it was too cold in my room.
