We checked in around 10 PM and the staff on duty was extremely friendly very thorough with explaining Wi-Fi where our room was where the best place to park would be. The room was spotless smelled great and the Jacuzzi tub looked brand new. The only complaints that I have would be to add a step to get in as I am quite short and.

EXCELLENT value for the money. The hotel is also like a little museum about Route 66. The room was clean and it even had a walk-in shower. Very modern. Even had a Keurig coffee maker! In this price range you're not going to find anything better.

Do not recommend!

The bed was comfortable. That's the only positive. The pictures are misleading, it is an OLD, outdated hotel. The room was filthy dirty, towel bar was broke, lots of people there talking, slamming doors, etc., until after 2:30am. Lots of brown swipes near on wall by toilet paper, something was spilled on bathroom door and not cleaned up, etc. Very gross. Floors were FREEZING cold, even after I turned on the heat. One packet (sugar, cream, napkin) was by tiny coffee pot was opened, no new packets were there for new guests. After I checked in, I was notified that their restaurant was closed (I planned to eat there). I went to front desk in the morning to turn in my keys. Nobody was working the front desk so I just left. I did not feel safe at this hotel (I was by myself), and would have left without checking in, but this was nonrefundable and I could not afford to go elsewhere.
Broken towel bar (the other end and the bar was laying on top of a shelf in bathroom)
Gross! What are these brown streaks by the toilet paper??
Something spilled on bathroom door, not cleaned up.
Opened packet by tiny coffee pot.

Was a great stay. Rooms were beautiful. However the tub water smelled like dog water and had tiny hair in it. The curtain also appeared to had spots of dryed blood on it. Overall was a great 5 star stay and would stay again.

I'd stay again

The hotel was clean. Very neat to look around decor wise. I think they might have a lounge that local frequent because I went out to my car around the time bars would be closing and there were 8 or 10 people that sounded very happy in the parking lot. But I. Could not hear them in the room nor did they explore the hallways. Over all nice places a little dated but clean and not run down.
