Staff was very friendly and helpful. We loved the extra touches provided, such as the homemade pastries for breakfast. Great Route 66 motel to stay at.
This stay was our last on the way home from an extended vacation. The welcome from staff and the homey room were just what our anxious nerves needed to settle in for a great night's sleep.
The parking right outside the room was a little tight but it was easy to find a better space. Our dog was quite comfortable.
This motel is great. Classic Route 66 motel. Close to Albuquerque but out in the country. Comfy and nice but not fancy. Owners were good communicators.
Only tiny issues are 1) lack of plug ins, including no bedside electric; and 2) wifi was spotty the night we stayed.
We'd stay here again if ever in the area.
This was an unexpected gem! The owners were so welcoming. The special touches in the breakfast bag and also the room brought such joy to these weary travelers doing Route 66 in the 1966 Mustang. Will make this a destination stop in the future!
We've stayed here 3 or 4 times now. The woman at the front desk is very friendly. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Love the midcentury modern lamps and light fixtures. We enjoyed our morning coffee in the little courtyard while watching the hummingbirds and the sunrise.
Wonderful experience. Beautiful property and the staff were so kind and helpful. I will definitely stop here again and could not recommend a better place to stay between Albuquerque and Amarillo!
Clean rooms & convenient parking. Friendly staff. Breakfast bag was nice. I’d stay here again. Would prefer larger beds, but at least the beds were comfortable.
Exceptionally clean retro motel. Reminds me of traveling in my childhood. Room was very clean, bed was comfortable, and the staff was very friendly. Motel is close to several restaurants. Very quiet place to stay. Highly recommend!
The room was very, very clean and quiet. The manager was pleasant. Minimal amenities in the room. Disappointed in the bath towels provided as they were the size of hand towels! Also bed was very uncomfortable.
Very nice staff, comfortable beds and clean rooms. Nice extra touches like breakfast pastries, chocolates in the room and a cute rubber duckie in the bath. We will return!
Remarkably remodeled to reflect the era. Anyone traveling Route 66 should plan to stay. Very clean. The breakfast muffins were delicious. Looking forward to another stay!
