Right on Route 66! A few blocks away is an outdoor museum which details the history of the area. Free and very informative. Quaint downtown with 3 huge giant statues and again informative signs. Dollar General next door. Also an auto parts store and 2 gas stations. Also a restaurant across the street that looked busy. This was a quiet section of town next to the motel. Very clean modern motel—everything was new! A motel sized frig with the bigger freezer. Ice down the hall if needed. Check in was a breeze! Would definitely stay again!

The safety chain on the door was broken and in the shower toilet area there was something sprayed on the walls close to the ceiling that was wet and running down the walls- overall our stay was an excellent experience and we would stay again!

Automated hotel, was odd like something out of the prewar period of the Fallout games. That being said, nice facilities and easily accessed. No continental breakfast though. Just FYI.

This property was nice but there were no ice machines or vending machines. The refrigerator was off so we had to turn it on and wait for it to cool before we could cool our drinks luckily we had our cooler with ice and drinks. The beds were nice on the firmer side but we slept good!

There is no reception. So do not book your stay last minute. Check in occurs with a code you are emailed. Co vient for traveling. Beds were hard. Rooms are updated.

Self check-in worked well. Clean and quiet. Sadly the lobby and hall smelled like pot. Our room smelled slightly of cigarette smoke. I guess that’s the problem with no staff on site. People take advantage and aren’t considerate of others

Not having someone working the Reception Desk was unusual; But using a code for the door and a code for the room key was a nice experience. The room was very clean and comfortable. The refrigerator was a bit of a problem, noisy! However, well worth the money and the restaurant around the corner was a good bargain for some good food as well.

Self check-in. Bed was hard and uncomfortable. Room was recently renovated, so very clean. Airconditioner was on upon arrival. Room was very quiet. It was everthing I expected. First time to use self check in and it was very easy. I have no complaints except the bed was hard and uncomfortable.
