The room was clean, the bed was very comfortable. We only used the ice machine in the breakfast room, but the food options looked decent. It was very fun to stay at one of the original Route 66 hotels!
Only issue was noise level from the street but it was Saturday night

It's on a main road, and lots of people proud of their motors roar by frequently. Fun to be on old route 66, and the price was right.
The check-in was great, room was clean. Location was great in terms of having plenty of shopping, restaurants and safety within the property. The surrounding area is a bit run down all businesses have bars on windows and there are transients walking about, however that is to be expected for a downtown urban area.
Our room was clean, air conditioner worked fine, and parking was perfect. This motel was located right on Rte. 66, and I loved the exterior colors! Wifi worked well. Breakfast left a lot to be desired; we were there later in the morning, so perhaps it was better earlier in the day. Price was right. I'd stay there again; it's in Old Town, and very close to downtown. Also close to a huge Farmers/Artists Market - don't know if it's open any other day but Saturday.
Staff very pleasant conversationalist, air-con seemed set to heat on arrival but switching to cool easy. Plenty of parking. Locals keen to show off their engine noise but quiet at night.
Sandia Peak was a pleasant surprise. Clean hard floors. No old carpet. Top of the line bed, sooo comfortable. Mike and Aria(?) were helpful hosts and suggested a great place to eat. Highly recommended.
I’ve got updated room, which was very spacious. On one hand, very basic, but at the same time very clean, modern shower and the place where you can get rest. After all, it’s a motel and I was glad I stayed there.
At least in our room, it needs finishing. Trim, chalking, sink fixture, the unit is an older unit, investments are needed, if this property wishes to rise to a higher tier.
The rooms were clean . Front desk staff were friendly. The room and exterior of the building and grounds are in desperate need of an upgrade ? Maintenance? Just old and worn .
The location of the hotel was great . Close to everything we wanted to see.
