The hotel was neat and clean, but we were approached in the parking lot by people looking for cash. The pool is not in a central location and we had to leave between multiple buildings to get to it. The beds are smaller than a traditional double. The room was for four people, but realistically it was too small.

With the other customer ratings, I expected better. It was unclear that this is a motel from the advertisement. Room has paint peeling from the ceiling over the bed, chips in the wall, really dirty walls, missing light fixture, burnt out bulbs, and chair in terrible condition. Toilet lid is cracked. Aspects just feel rundown and old. I wish I had chosen someplace else.

Quaint and clean motel

It's a very cute setting, Route 66 themed, clean, and fun. Parking is right in front of your room, very nice outdoor pool. The bathroom towel rack needed fixed, the shower needs grab bars for safety (deep tub, wide edge to step over). The water pressure is good, but it has bursts of hot and cold during the shower.

Absolutely loved the old school feel of thing's from start to finish. As someone who travels a LOT for work and kids sports, this hotel has by far been my favorite. No overwhelmed and grumpy front desk people, quiet rooms (first time in years i didn't hear neighbors), working tvs comfortable beds, clean beddibg, nice spacious rooms, good breakfast (even with retro booth and tables 😍), and a clean pool (although we did miss the hot tub that was closed/unavailable- it was covered). I will definitely stay here again if/when we come back to Springfield. It was such a wonderful two night stay!

Total let down!!

Me and my wife as of that day stayed here instead of going home for the night because it looked fun and it has history. We reserved the Elvis Presley room with an in room hot tub. Because well we just got married why not right? We ended up going and getting cleaners and cleaning the hot tub is was disgusting also it has a pink Cadillac couch in it with white upholstery we had to clean that also. Was way over priced and we immediately had buyers regret!!
