i love this hotel and usually i stay there when Im traveling back accross country. The hotel has so much charm and history of old Hollywood Westerns movies that were filmed there. The staff is very friendly and accommodating and the bar is great place to hang.

This is a great property and excellent memorabilia. However the handicap accessibility is lacking. If they would prevent parking in front of the patio path, and or add a side ramp to get down to it we could have been much happier.

8/10

We enjoyed the retro feel of this historic Route 66 Hotel. Only complaint is maybe more bar staff on holidays as with only one bar tender he was unable to handle the influx of people there. Also, if the pool is not available a discount should be offered as that was one of the main reasons we booked this hotel.

The place had a rustic charm and appeal, comfortable, clean rooms and beds. The staff was very friendly, and we enjoyed our stay. If you are looking for an affordable place to stay, this is the place.
