Do not stay here.

The road noise is very loud (the rooms are too close to the road). Small, roach-like bugs in the bathroom. The Air Conditioning unit was very loud in my room. Do not stay here.

Unsafe, Dirty, and No Security, Do not stay here!

We reserved this room based on the reviews. They were WRONG! Bad area with homeless and addicts. Next to Central Ave Very Loudbwithvcats and police sirens. No security on site. Someone smoking weed as we were going into room. The room looked nothing like the pictures, it was small and dingy and smelled of the disinfectant at the GOODWILL. We immediately felt unsafe. As someone approached us to buy stolen products. We did not want to stay and went to cancel our stay and find a safer location. We were told we were ok to cancel at first and follow up for refund. After 4 days we were advised the manager denied our refund even though we did not stay in the room AT ALL! The reviews and pictures do not match the actual location do not stay here!

Owners were super nice but kind of hard to find. The front desk was not always manned. The breakfast had no protein options. The beds and pillows were comfortable and the shower got hot and stayed hot. The room was dirty. My white socks were black on the bottom after walking on the floor. It did get mopped after my second request.

Received a text from Howard Johnson for pre-check. Completed it including copy of drivers license and credit card information. Hotel doesn’t have access to that information so had to do everything again. One reason I selected this motel was for the bathtub. Ask for a room on 1st floor. Found out room didn’t have tub. They gave us a room on 2nd floor but housekeeping hadn’t finished cleaning it. We had already carried all our luggage up so we waited. Later I went in to take bath and found the tub didn’t have any way to keep the water in so useless for a bath. The hotel and furnishings are very dated.

This motel is a budget motel and as such is great. It was old, but on Rt 66 so that is expected. The rooms were nice though. Large & clean. It had everything we needed. The staff seemed nice as well. My only complaint was the road noise on Route 66 Bring earplugs.

This is a unique renovated Route 66 property. It is very well done and a very friendly staff. The updates may not be consistent with the 50s and 60s., But overall, it is a very well done renovation.

I was very impressed with how nicely renovated all the rooms are. The bed was comfortable and everything was in good shape. I especially appreciated them having two EV chargers. I'm not sure I'd bother doing their advanced online check-in though - they ended up asking me for almost everything when I checked in that I'd already done online so it seemed like a waste of time.
