This motel is really cool as it has a lot of history. We actually booked the Elvis room which is where Elvis stayed. It was a really neat looking room! From the pink Cadillac bed to all the pictures and neon it really brought great character. Everything looked great when we arrived and got settled in. The a/c was already on and set for us. It was a hot and long day so we wanted to cool down and stay in for the night. We enjoyed the big jacuzzi and turned on some Netflix to chill. We even had some ice cream delivered to our room through Gopuff. We noticed though that the a/c really was not cooling down the room at all. I'm a big guy and was sweating a lot even after taking a cold bath in the jacuzzi. We went to the front desk to ask for plastic spoons for our ice cream. I mentioned the a/c to them and they said if we cannot handle it, they would be happy to bring us a box fan. We ate our ice cream and waited, but the room was just so hot. I called the front desk (a little after 1am) and someone came to our room. She was very kind and tried resetting the a/c and delivered a box fan. About 10 minutes later she called our room and said they discounted the room $25 for the inconvenience. Other notes: the toilet didn't seem properly connected to the wall, the mattress was extremely hard, and the bed pillows were very small for it being a king sized bed. Again, we did love the room and the vibe it gave along with the rest of the motel. I would have given 5 stars if the a/c worked.

This was the worst place we stayed during our trip (16 days and 14 hotels)! Of the two check in staff present one just got up and left even though there was a queue. After check in our room key did not work so they put us in a different room. We are a family with two children and the new room was right next to a bachelor party which came back after 10pm and sat right outside our room, smoking, drinking and using very bad language. There are plenty of rooms available so surely there was no need to put us right next to them! As reception was no longer occupied we sent an email to complain but a week later we still have not had a reply or an apology! The breakfast selection was good but the breakfast room was too small for the size of the motel and there was not enough space to move and/or sit. As on the day before the staff was not interested at all and did not want to be there. It really was a shame as we wanted to stay at a Route 66 motel but we would not stay there again under any circumstances.

We arrived at the checkln desk and as soon as i spoke with my scottish accent i had a sense that i was not welcome and this transpired to be true. This hotel has 320 chalet type rooms and we were given disabled room 319 away in the far corner furthest away from the reception breakfast and pool and my wife did not feel secure. The rooms look nothing like the photos on the Hotel.com site and soon as we opened the door we could smell cats urine and it did not look clean the toilet door just about fell off. We reloaded our car and went to another hotel.I could not go in to reception for fear of losing my temper so the wife went in and told the recepionist that we were checking out. What the recepionist said to my wife was WE HAVE BETTER ROOMS THAN THAT CAN I MOVE YOU so my replied so you are telling me you gave us a terrible room on purpose. I will be wanting a refund from Hotels.com.

Good place to stay for the Car Show in August
Room was very clean but could use a little touch up on paint in bathroom. They have changed the breakfast and it's not as good as it once was. Go back to scrambled eggs and soft biscuits. We have used this motel for the last 15 years for Route 66 car show. It's great you can park in front of your room with your classic car.

Spent one night with family.
I was traveling with my husband and 2 kids. We spent one night on our way to Chicago. The room was clean. The room had adequate accommodations. The only bad thing about the room were 2 things. The bottom bunk bed support for the mattress was not very good. My daugther sunk in the middle of the mattress. And the other thing was the shower was very very slow draining. We had to wait about 20 after each person showering to take the next shower. I think the shower drain needs to be cleaned out. The breakfast was decent for the price paid. We would probably stay here again if the two things were corrected. The 2 staff employees we encounters were very upbeat and friendly.

The nostalgic theme was cute! The employees are incredibly nice! The unit could have used some vacuuming to get rid of some of the little wispy spiders, but with the trees all around they're to be expected. Breakfast was good and typical of a Best Western.
