Set your expectations accordingly

I think it’s great if you’re doing the Route 66 roadtrip kind of thing. But if you’re going to Springfield just for a weekend stay, I’d say go somewhere else.

This is an updated motor lodge that has been around since the 1930s. The room was updated, clean, and comfortable with all of the amenities of a modern facility. Parking literally outside your door. The pool looked clean, although I didn't have the need to use it. Friendly staff. Convenient to Missouri State campus.

Not Quite What It Used to Be

I first stayed at Rail Haven back in 2015, and it was fresh and sparkling. Being there inspired me to do a Route 66 trip, which I did several years later. This time around, however, I noticed that the property hasn't been kept up all that well. The front desk folks were very nice. The housekeeping staff was great and the room was clean. But it appears there is a lot of deferred maintenance going on. I stayed in the Elvis Suite. A lot of the cool lighting that makes it unique was not working. Both the sink and the tub were constantly dripping/leaking. The only way not to hear that all night was to close the door and allow the loud AC to drown out the dripping noise. The outside of the buildings showed a lot of wear and the grounds were raggedy. It's such a great, historic property. It just needs some sprucing up.
