Decent overnight stay

It was a cute and nicely maintained old route 66 roadside motel. The rooms were small back then, sondon't expect much. The breakfast was mediocre, the beds were fairly comfortable, the pillows were oddly small (like 1'x1' squares), and our TV kept losing signal on the channels. Overall, it was just a decent stay. Nothing bad, nothing great.

Not good

We stayed 2 nights in 2 different rooms. Cleanliness was an issue in both rooms. But the 2nd was just not good. Sheets had stains, tub looked just not sanitized and just bad so we just didnt use it. Bathroom was the worst, stains around the door ( which did get cleaned with a wipe so they just didnt clean it) there was a half used soap on the floor of the shower and a hair on the shower head. It seemed like they just didnt clean it. It was just very disappointing .

Very clean and well maintained, eclectic facilities, throwback to the 70s and 60s. Traffic can be tricky if trying to make a left turn during heavier commuter times. Friendly and courteous staff.

This has to be one of my favorites! I love a little history and Rail Haven was such a unique, quiet, cozy, friendly little place to stay. I was impressed by all the original details that have been preserved and/or restored! Best Western Rail Haven is full of charm! I didn’t wanna leave! It’s unlike any other place I’ve ever stayed! Parking is right outside your door. Breakfast is in the original 50’s diner partially converted to the lobby.! It was very clean and all 3 receptionists were so kind and friendly. It didn’t even feel like a hotel. More like a taste of the 50’s! Thank You BW for making my stay so comfortable and pleasant! Very happy customer!

Deceiving Pictures

Online pictures are very deceiving. This is not a hotel-it’s a motel!! We needed a place that we could gather in, like a lobby for our group-forget it, there isn’t one. The staff was very friendly and it was clean, just not what was advertised. Very very disappointed

Coolest Vibe

First off, just driving into the property is so cool! Classic cars and signage give it the vibe of a retro motor court. We got the Western room and it was probably the most unique experience I’ve ever had. The attention to detail is stunning. The staff were also friendly and very helpful. Overall, I highly recommend!!

So quaint... takes you back in time for just a moment. Clean, comfortable & warm. Only downside was that the tv remote did not work, even after changing out the batteries. Loved the grab & go breakfast- giving you all you need to start the day! Definitely would stay again.
