The welcome from clerk when we drove in, was like a drive in check in for the motel. Had a coffee maker and fridge and microwave in room. Gave packed brefast some muffins and oranges.

Kyrill Germany

Everything!!! What a little Gem of a motel. We have always stayed in chain motels but decided to treat our two daughters to something different and so glad we did. Rooms are amazing. The owners were so lovely and so welcoming. There were Lovely soft white towels and toiletries. You can sit in the patio or outside your room on the outside furniture. We would definitely recommend this motel and would definitely stay again. Thank you for adding some more memories to our trip .

Anna United Kingdom

Super clean, pleasant rooms! We love to stay here for the beautiful old feel but with modern amenities. The rubber ducky is the greatest touch! We’ve stayed twice and will absolutely come back anytime we pass through. The owner, Mike, is the sweetest most interesting person and is extremely knowledgeable on the area. Thank you so much for having us again!

Kelsey United States

Check in easy, goodie bag for breakfast. Clean and quiet. Best review, we would stay again.

Nancy United States

A WONDERFUL Route 66 motel. Everything was very clean and safe and the staff were AMAZING! I was reserved to stay here back in January 2022 and had car issues on the road. I canceled past the cutoff time and they were nice enough not to charge me. I paid it back by booking again in April 2022 and they were overly helpful and nice! I can't recommend this place enough. If you want a retro, original Route 66 motel....this is your place! I'll be back!

Diane United States

I arrived past normal checkin time and they went out of their way to accommodate me.

Wes United States

...great facility, reminiscent of the 'AAA-rated, neon-sign' motels of the '50s and '60s...family-owned, with a rich history...within minutes of numerous restaurants...continue down Rt. 66 for a few miles, or get right back on I-40...and, every guest gets a free bag w/ 2 small Oranges, and a muffin and Danish, provided by a local baker)...
