Staff was friendly and helpful and the rooms were very clean and comfy. The nostalgic decor and history of the hotel was everything we hoped it would be for this wonderful Route 66 stop. Will definitely stay here again when we're in the area.

This was the coolest place on Route 66! The rooms are themed and so much fun! There were photos of famous movie stars that stayed there while filming years ago. The attached restaurant had excellent food and service. They also have an attached gift shop. Five stars!

This place is cool and has a nice vibe. The only downside is the bathroom is tiny (which I understand) and the restaurant food is not the best.

This was such a unique property! The only minus was that the bar and dining areas really looked more like a cafeteria and didn’t reflect the vibe of the rest of the hotel. Other than that what a great place to stay!!
