Very clean room un a motel that is trying to provide a nostalgic experience of the Route 66 of the 50s and 60s. Beds were comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful.

This is a 1950s vintage motel and proud of it. It does not have the amenities that a more modern hotel has, but the room was clean, the bathroom was clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful, and the bed was comfortable. For a place to spend the night while on a trip, it has all one would need and at a very reasonable price. i would definitely stay here again.

The staff was incredibly kind. The bed was very comfy. It was a great place to stop to get rest. The one gripe I have is no where for your pet to really use the restroom without have to dodge broken glass.

This Motel was built in the 50's when Route 66 was a booming road. We enjoyed staying here for the nastalgia. The room was quaint but nice & clean. The bed was very comfortable. We got a great night sleep .

8/10 Very good

I can't say enough about the excellent, friendly service by the on-site managers, Tim and his wife! Excellent hosts. The motel is the best around. But don't over expect. Advertised as newly remodeled, it is an old building and has old building traits. The bed was very clean and comfortable, no bed bugs. Carpet was a bit nasty. Coffee was good. Toilet seat was new but loose, and I was unable to tighten it myself. Air conditioner is excellent. Lastly, it's loud in the mornings. So don't plan on sleeping in. It's loud! Trains, trucks, early neighbors slamming doors. To their credit, Tim and his wife supply ear plugs in the nightstand, lol. Good value, and I had a good stay. Thanks, Tim.

Great old school route 66 motel. No frills but very comfortable and clean. Welcoming to pets ( just let them know) and the owner (Ron) is very nice and helpful. Not as many amenities but you are staying in a bit of history on Route 66 in Grants NM. Would definately stop there again!
