our room could use some major cleaning, especially the bathroom. oof!
I stopped in told him that it wouldn't come and date my truck and trailer that I needed a refund and called Expedia Expedia tried calling them they said they couldn't get a hold of them so they was not going to refund my money poor business as far as I'm concerned would not stay there
Great little motel. Very comfortable and accommodating. Chairs outside of room to sit and listen to the train and relax. They kept the rooms almost 100% original.
Excellent hotel! We were in the James Dean room during our Route 66 trip. Area to sit outside. Lovely staff. Room a little dated but clean, we deliberately chose to stay here given its appearance and within Route 66.
Pretty disappointing stay. Turned up right on 3pm to find the office closed and no one about, so I just wandered around until the clerk showed up with his little dog who wouldn't stop barking at me (and even tried to nip me). The carpark needs to be completely resurfaced with the parks redrawn - they're all over the place. The room was fine but felt small & cluttered, and the floor was badly warped. The train was loud, but nowhere near as bad as Mountain Home ID, so at least I could sleep. Best thing about the place was the classic Dr Who channel.

It's an old Route 66 motel that hasn't been renovated in a while. It was clean but a bit noisy as it's not far from the railway. The bed was confortable.
I liked the look and feel of the property. It had a lot of route 66 themes and such including the ac temp being set at 66 which was a little funny. My only complaint is that they could maybe use some better pillows and some better curtains for blocking sunlight. Other than that it's a good place to sleep than hit the road again early morning
I was catfished! This place was nasty! Mouse traps under sinks. I even saw a cockroach on the wall. We left shortly after checking in and never came back! We enjoy visiting little known places like this. The clerk was busy playing video games and took forever coming out to help, even his dog was barking at me and he didn't come out
It was an old property but had been updated. I had booked it because it was iconic on Route 66. It was a comfortable night's stay and we got what we paid for. I wasn't looking for luxury, and I stayed there based on the price and the artfutlness of the place.

The floors are uneven and that made me a bit dizzy. That is something that they can't do anything about. They claim to be sparkling clean but the bathroom fixture was grubby, as was the wall around the light switch. Also their outside sign has half the lights out and that does not make a good impression.
Brads was great. It’s older and small but we were very comfortable. Everything was clean. We stayed in the James Dean room. Trains go by frequently but the owner has ear plugs. She was a delight as well. I would stay there again.

If you are looking for luxury this is not the place. But if you are passing through and just need a place to lay your head and grab a shower in the morning before you take off this place will do. This place is very old but it functions. It looked clean, bed was comfortable. Microwave, fridge were new-ish. AC and the shower worked - (water was hot, good pressure.)
People were very nice.
The only real concern was the train tracks right next door. The train woke me up in the middle of the night briefly.
I stayed here because it was the cheapest place I could find. It did the job for the price.

Old time motel. reminder of Rt 66 days.
Ear plugs offered at check in due to frequent train noise nearby.
The rooms are cute and comfortable. The trains at night take a bit of getting used to! Otherwise, fine and a good value.

We are deep sleepers so train noise didn’t bother us but it woke me up in the morning!! It is a great place to spend the night if you are deep sleeper!! Bed is comfortable and clean!! I would prefer floor is cleaner!! Rest is as same as any other hotels!
While the folks here worked hard to make this little motel clean and comfortable, they are working with an older building that hasn't been renovated much. It is not as bright and cute as the pictures. Still, there is a terrific Mexican restaurant within walking distance and if you like trains, you get to hear a lot of them very close by

It's an old Route 66 motel, don't expect some modern facility with large rooms. It's small. And I don't want to hold it against the facility, but there is a train track right behind it, and trains went by all night every 30 minutes or so, if you are a light sleeper consider ear plugs or you won't get much sleep.
