Nostalgic pet friendly motel on Route 66!

This is a nice older motel on Route 66, the staff is excellent and the rooms are very clean. There is a great pet area outdoors for your fur babies. I would recommend this Sunset Motel to anyone looking for a place to stay.

It is an older motel. Everything was ok except the counter top space throughout. No bedside nightstands, I had pull over a chair to place my phone, flashlight, drink and food. There is very little desktop space too. In addition, very little counter space around the sink to place my travel bathroom pouch. It was very uncomfortable.

This is a motel. Expedia's 9.6 rating is ridiculous. If you want to stay in a motel on Old Route 66, go for it. Otherwise spend same $$ at Baymont or your favorite 3-4 star hotel.

Cute, cute property! There is a small courtyard where we enjoyed breakfast. The rooms were musty but clean. My family booked 3 rooms and it was a great meeting area for us all. We loved the sack "breakfast". We would definitely recommend

Catch a Sunrise at Sunset

Very nice lady at the front desk. She fixed my online booking mistake at no extra charge for a room change and had nothing less than a good positive attitude. Also, Had so many cute lil touches like chocolate kisses on the bedside table with a good night kiss note. The best breakfast bag for the morning and nice clean Keurig with Starbucks K cups. This place is so clean and comfortable!! I'll definitely stay again if ever in the area!

We love staying at this gem of a motel

We love staying here. Debbie and her husband are so friendly, kind and helpful. My little dog is always welcome with a nice grass area. They even provide a blanket for her to lay on to keep their bedding free of fur. The take and go breakfast is so good. The best danish, muffin and tangerines. This is my third stay this year and will continue staying at the Sunset Motel in the future.

From the outside it looks like a route 66 motel from the 60s. I was in room 2. It's updated with everything you expect in a hotel today. I appreciated the Keurig with Starbucks and the breakfast bag. The room was clean and comfortable.
