Joseph, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very modern, well-appointed facility. Missed having an iron & ironing board, but otherwise comfortable. We also enjoyed having a drink in the lounge onsite.
Martha, 1-night trip

Very clean and functional.
Thomas, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was clean and comfy. The bed was really nice. The only constructive criticism I could offer is that the shower needs a curtain or door.
Carolyn, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean room & bath. Cute place. Bed was very comfortable. WIFI didn’t work till the next morning when we were leaving but that was minor as we weren’t there to surf the internet.
Jamie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I've stayed here 3 or 4 times, and it's now my go-to in Abq. Great value, great staff, great mattresses, quiet for the location, cute rooms. Albuquerque is an awesome city and this place has all the best Burque vibes.

Great place on Rte 66

Cool and funky-in-a-good-way motel on Rte. 66. Nice lounge for checking in or hanging out. Great service, Jessica was especially lovely and helpful! Pool was a nice feature. Large clean rooms with a wonderful shower although I don’t get not having a door on it, water went all over the bathroom floor… I’d stay here again!
Ellen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We always love staying at this hotel when traveling with our grand kids because they LOVE the bunk beds. The only downfall to our recent visit was that there was absolutely no parking so we had to park at a neighboring hotel. I was told there was a wedding party celebration or something at their lounge so they were taking some of the parking spaces. It would make more sense to ensure that the hotel guests who paid over

Clean Comfortable Motel

Wonderful motel off Route 66. Room was large, nicely decorated, and the bed was so comfortable. Free parking. There is a bar in the lobby that is super cute with a fun vibe and great cocktails. Shout out to Olivia and Jessica for their hospitality and friendliness during check in and check out. Would happily stay here again.

Shawn, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wanted to stay at a vintage Route 66 hotel on our trip to Albuquerque - this hotel fit the bill. The room was well appointed and comfortable - the bed might be the most comfortable one I have ever slept on in a hotel.
