Very cute MOTEL. Love that it is almost 100 years old, on Rt 66 and that Elvis stayed here so it is a part of history.
I expected it to be dated, but it really needs to be cleaned. Floors were dirty, towels were stained and the deadbolt was also broken. Seems like a safe area and it was very quiet, so we slept well.

This motel is really cool as it has a lot of history. We actually booked the Elvis room which is where Elvis stayed. It was a really neat looking room! From the pink Cadillac bed to all the pictures and neon it really brought great character. Everything looked great when we arrived and got settled in. The a/c was already on and set for us. It was a hot and long day so we wanted to cool down and stay in for the night. We enjoyed the big jacuzzi and turned on some Netflix to chill. We even had some ice cream delivered to our room through Gopuff. We noticed though that the a/c really was not cooling down the room at all. I'm a big guy and was sweating a lot even after taking a cold bath in the jacuzzi. We went to the front desk to ask for plastic spoons for our ice cream. I mentioned the a/c to them and they said if we cannot handle it, they would be happy to bring us a box fan. We ate our ice cream and waited, but the room was just so hot. I called the front desk (a little after 1am) and someone came to our room. She was very kind and tried resetting the a/c and delivered a box fan. About 10 minutes later she called our room and said they discounted the room $25 for the inconvenience. Other notes: the toilet didn't seem properly connected to the wall, the mattress was extremely hard, and the bed pillows were very small for it being a king sized bed.
Again, we did love the room and the vibe it gave along with the rest of the motel. I would have given 5 stars if the a/c worked.
