We were just passing through so were not concerned about most of the questions, such as shopping, dining options or transportation. We did really enjoy the couple who checked us in, as they were very friendly and helpful with information. We would stay here again.

There is no door security or chain on the room doors, which open to the outside. This would not be ok even in a hallway, however.

There is no elevator, just stairs. The doors have a deadbolt, but not a chain or door lock mechanism for added security. This is not ok in this day and age, especially since the rooms open to the outside. The road was extremely noisy with cars racing up and down the street so our second night there, I hardly slept. The owner and his wife were very nice, even when we arrived after flying in at midnight.

Cheap & Cheerful

The pros: Great price and close to Old Town, Downtown, University area and Bio Park. Very clean and the staff was friendly and kind. The cons: Being right on historic Route 66, you get more than your fair share of people with loud cars and bikes revving engines at all hours. This isn't the hotels fault - you'd probably have this problem at any of the old motels on the strip. But if you're a light sleeper, it's something to consider. The fixtures are a bit dated, the AC was pretty loud. The bed was reasonably comfortable. For the price, this is a great spot. I spent 3 nights here and would come back.

Most repairs minor, but so many of them! Handles on drawers half hanging off, insufficient or sporadic lighting, lamp shade bent and switch bent so much almost unable to turn it, shower head barely fixed and not working properly, pool was gross (don't think it was open), fitness center closed for remodel (guess something was getting fixed), and noisy, although the property can't be held responsible for young adults racing back and forth on the street and revving engines.

By miracle I was able to find this little gem last minute after an emergency trip was made me made my booking online. This place is cozy quiet and full of charm the staff is nothing short of amazing especially since I had made my booking on line and unfortunately the room was supposed to get the other guest decided to do A last min extension. The manager/front desk went above and beyond to accommodate and upgraded my room free and was still able to keep the accommodations of mobility for myself and my mother. The fact that he was willing to ensure I got my room during such a troubling time and still keep the accommodations met just shows that this gem is above it's class. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. We definitely be coming back. The beds a comfy the rooms are clean and location can't be beat, close to lots of dining options and being close to tingle beach the zoo and botanical gardens is definitely a perk. Thank you again

OK

The room was nice and clean. My only concern was the amount of traffic on a Friday night (more like early Saturday morning) made it very difficult to sleep if at all. Appears to be a popular spot for drag racing at the stop light in front of the motel or at least was for our stay. I'm not a city person so maybe this is normal for the area.

The description says sound proof but we can hear snoring from the next room, talking and tv you can hear all the cars etc. Loud street noise. Definitely wasn’t sound proof. Breakfast was very very limited only thing hot was waffles they didn’t even have butter for bread. Parking was very limited. On top of everything I was charged twice once through Travelocity and when I got to the motel they said Travelocity didn’t send anything over when I asked about the 2nd charge they insisted that they only put a hold on my card for incidentals but it was clearly a charge on my card. If I were asked if I would stay there again it would definitely would say absolutely not. The only pro was the room was clean.
