“The owners are amazing and I would recommend 100%”
I liked the smell when I got inside the room and the vintage fridge and microwave. Is situated close to a lake so you can have a nice walk around.

“Skip the big chain motels and spend a peaceful evening at a place that really cares about their guests.”
Absolutely everything! It was like spending the night at Grandma’s house. Vintage decor, the most welcoming gentleman at the front desk. Great location. We could have spent a couple of days just sitting by the adjacent lake.

Absolutely recommend if you drive route 66. Charming hotel, clean, comfy beds. They really try to keep the 50-60ies vibe going.
