This is a unique renovated Route 66 property. It is very well done and a very friendly staff. The updates may not be consistent with the 50s and 60s., But overall, it is a very well done renovation.

I was very impressed with how nicely renovated all the rooms are. The bed was comfortable and everything was in good shape. I especially appreciated them having two EV chargers. I'm not sure I'd bother doing their advanced online check-in though - they ended up asking me for almost everything when I checked in that I'd already done online so it seemed like a waste of time.

Reasonably comfortable stay at this funky Route 66 motel. Staff friendly and welcoming. Room air conditioner was so close to the bed that both the noise and air made it hard to sleep soundly.

A charming and pleasant visit

The front desk staff were kind, friendly, and professional. They answered questions and were very helpful. This was our first time in Albuquerque and thought the decor and atmosphere of the hotel was charming.

This is a motel, not a hotel. The neighborhood is a little sketchy. Fast food restaurants were available however not sit down and dine type of restaurants were not nearby.

Choose a different hotel

I personally wouldn’t stay here again. It does not feel like a safe area. The street in front of the hotel (motel?) had cars revving their engines and screeching down the street all night, backfires sounding like gunshots. The front desk check in was locked and I had to ring a doorbell to ask for extra towels. They didn’t have any and had to go find some. Just wasn’t a great experience and was ready to leave first thing in the morning.

Comfortable bed. Great water pressure. Tub/shower stall in very poor condition. I would not use shower without wearing flip flops or shower shoes. Overhead light in vanity area missing glass cover over light bulbs and extremely dusty. Ongoing construction on property and street noise very loud. Female front desk attendant was the highlight as she expertly managed anangry hostile customer before us and was very professional.

The room was clean and the bed very comfortable. Their Continental breakfast was not good. The only good thing were the waffles. Not a good variety offered. The cereal looked old and stale, bananas the only fruit offered, and the coffee was undrinkable. I asked for the room to be cleaned the 2nd nite, they emptied the trash and left clean towels. The bed sheets were not changed, nor were there new shampoos and soaps replenished.
