We loved everything about this place. It brought back many memories of Route 66 TV program right down to the retro furnishings. We were greeted warmly at checkin and even given a wonderful bag of goodie’s. The room was nicely decorated and played out and the extra sink outside the bath was a bonus. It was the most enjoyable stay on our trip and we will try to get back there.

Passing thru

The room was small but clean and adequate for a night's sleep. Front desk clerk was very nice. The bed was not comfy for my husband and I. The biggest drawback is that our bathroom had no heat at all. It was too cold to shower in there.

Consistently Excellent

Smart, friendly staff & management. An awesome authentic midcentury facility that is spotlessly clean. The rooms are true MC but the mattresses are comfortable. Ive now stayed here 6-7 times and its consistently excellent. One of my favorite Route 66 motels.
