They offer insights and recommendations from previous guests to help future visitors enhance their stay at the hotel.

Consider Room Selection Carefully

Some guests reported that the rooms were a bit worn down and had stains on the carpet and walls. It might be worth requesting a room that has been recently updated.

Check Nearby Dining Options

The hotel's restaurant was closed, but there are several good dining options within walking distance, including a farmer's market on Saturdays.

Be Mindful of Smoking

The courtyard, which was essentially a parking lot, attracted smokers, leading to a lingering smell of smoke in non-smoking rooms. Consider this if you have allergies.

Take Advantage of the Location

The hotel is conveniently located near downtown, within walking distance of restaurants, taverns, and the farmer's market. It's also close to the airport.

Be Aware of Pet Fees

If traveling with pets, note that there is a charge of $7 per dog, which some guests found reasonable, but it's not always clearly stated on booking platforms.

Plan for Breakfast

The hotel's restaurant was closed for breakfast, but there are plenty of breakfast options within walking distance, including some highly recommended spots.

Embrace the Unique Theme

The hotel has a classic "rt 66" style, offering a charming and unique experience. The rooms have a rustic, western atmosphere, adding to the overall appeal.

Check for Updated Amenities

Some guests mentioned that the room had been updated with new carpet and a walk-in shower, providing a comfortable and quiet stay.

Be Prepared for Limited Facilities

The hotel is described as an older establishment, so expect minimal facilities and some wear and tear. However, it offers good value for the price and a convenient location.

Consider Noise Levels

Some guests found it easy to hear activities in the hallway and above their rooms, so light sleepers may want to take this into account.
