The memorabilia throughout the motel was incredible! You could tell it was an older motel, but it was updated with great air system, new tiling and fixtures. I loved this place and would stay again!

I had to get moved to multiple different rooms during my stay. All were dirty and had a heavy musty smell. Really unprofessional and unhealthy.

For a historic spot, it was really great. Lots of cool decor and history in the lobby and halls. Rooms were clean. There was some noise from the building in the room (electrical and plumbing probably) but I assume its just due to age. Very cool place, would stay again.

What a surprise the outside doesn't look like much but the room was great, they upgraded us to a jacuzzi suite for free, not sure why but it was awesome. The bed was one of the most comfortable beds I have slept on it a while. Friendly staff, restaurant was great and friendly and great value for the money. Highly recommend and would stay again for sure

The hotel was fine for what we needed. Nothing fancy, but a good night's sleep. Enjoyed the attached restaurant/bar. No carpet is a good idea, so thumbs up for that. Front desk staff was friendly and helpful.

Classically comfortable!
Friendly staff. Spacious room. It’s in a good location for shopping and food. Just a few miles from anything you might need. And the antiques are awesome to check out. Definitely will stay again!!

Really fun place.
Really fun hotel with lots of old time Route 66 atmosphere. Nice room. Clean and comfortable. Only slight complaint was other guests making noise, including in the next room with a loud radio going most of the night.

Americana at its best!
The hotel was comfortable and the decor was memorable. If you’re looking for kitschy Americana, you can’t go wrong with this place. It offered nice amenities, while retaining a unique charm.
