Retro motel near El Malpais. Location was great. Bed was comfy and room seemed clean, but a little run down. Shower was awful. I’m always a little suspicious when linens and towels are gray because it hides stains. Front desk was pleasant.

Good place, the staff was helpful with local recommendations and such. Nice location on old Route 66, and convenient to the Malpais. Plenty of good dining options, some even walking distance. Like many motels it’s a little old and there were some repair issues - we had some troubles with the lights.

Real in-room coffee, great showerhead and water pressure, friendly staff. I think the managers might consider making more of the historic Route 66 connection.

Everything was great!!! The host was great loved her. I had a great stay at this motel! The room was very clean, and the housekeeping staff did an excellent job keeping everything fresh and tidy. The staff overall were super friendly and helpful, which made me feel very welcome. The host was especially kind and made check-in smooth and easy. I also really appreciated how safe and quiet the area was—it made for a relaxing and peaceful stay. Would definitely stay here again!

More good than bad

This is definitely a very old and previously shabby property, but many improvements have been made--fresh paint, better quality bedding and towels than I have at home and everything clean. The lobby needs work; it doesn't make a good first impression. But we would stay here again.

Route 66 is not vibrant as it once was and is off the beaten path. These property owners and their staff are trying to maintain and improve this property and make it a nice clean place to stay.

We enjoy staying in vintage or retro motels and this was great! Manager was so friendly and addressed our requests. In addition, location was within a mile of a brewery that we drove a few hours to experience...which was also retro! We want to support small business and local motels whenever possible. We recommend this one!

I got to meet the owners of this classic motel. They are working to renovate the property and personally showed me to my room. It was a lovely change of pace from the generic hotel experience.
