Old hotel! And, shows its age in spots, BUT comfy, clean, owner is great! We’d stay here again!
Becky, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Our room was just fine, neatly set up, big frig, microwave, coffee ready for bfast, and clean. Having 3 beds for 3 adults was really nice!
Natalie, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I was very impressed with this motel compared to others. It was clean, cozy, and the staff were very welcoming.
Lauren, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Good place, the staff was helpful with local recommendations and such. Nice location on old Route 66, and convenient to the Malpais. Plenty of good dining options, some even walking distance. Like many motels it’s a little old and there were some repair issues - we had some troubles with the lights.

Real in-room coffee, great showerhead and water pressure, friendly staff. I think the managers might consider making more of the historic Route 66 connection.
Karen, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Everything was great!!! The host was great loved her. I had a great stay at this motel! The room was very clean, and the housekeeping staff did an excellent job keeping everything fresh and tidy. The staff overall were super friendly and helpful, which made me feel very welcome. The host was especially kind and made check-in smooth and easy. I also really appreciated how safe and quiet the area was—it made for a relaxing and peaceful stay. Would definitely stay here again!

Jeffery, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We enjoy staying in vintage or retro motels and this was great! Manager was so friendly and addressed our requests. In addition, location was within a mile of a brewery that we drove a few hours to experience...which was also retro! We want to support small business and local motels whenever possible. We recommend this one!
Kathleen, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Route 66 is not vibrant as it once was and is off the beaten path. These property owners and their staff are trying to maintain and improve this property and make it a nice clean place to stay.

10/10 Excellent

I got to meet the owners of this classic motel. They are working to renovate the property and personally showed me to my room. It was a lovely change of pace from the generic hotel experience.

Mini Staycation

We took a mini staycation with our neighbor friends to enjoy a night in Grants. The motel was nice and we enjoyed the very friendly customer service by the night clerk. We like that the motel is pretty much in the middle of all the “to dos” in Grants. If we had known that pets were welcome we would have taken our little guy, Bassett Dachshund cross. Next time for sure.
Sheryl, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Staff was great, but property is older and showing it. Thin walls, old furniture and beds. Lots of road and railroad noise, but all hotels on that road would have that issue as well.
Joe, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Basic road trip sleepover

The owners are about 4 months into a remodel. Some items not yet completed. Ie bathroom floor and missing closet rod. The staff was exceptionally helpful. We just needed a basic sleepover on a road trip that was pet friendly. This is a very basic and nostalgic Route 66 style motel. The bed was comfy. Room clean.
Alan, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

The front desk manager was nice. Upon checking in, she said they don’t usually rent out this room. The wall heater did not work so she brought an old ceramic heater to the room. Extension cords running throughout the room. It was a cold night and the portable heater didn’t do much to warm the room. The immediate area was old, not much nearby.
Rhianna, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Retro motel near El Malpais. Location was great. Bed was comfy and room seemed clean, but a little run down. Shower was awful. I’m always a little suspicious when linens and towels are gray because it hides stains. Front desk was pleasant.
