I would recommend for a single traveller not for a family due to unsafe area and the outside area was dirty but our inside room was clean with uncomfortable beds, mine had no legs so the comforter touched the floor - my son felt unsafe due to the presence of police, firetruck, & ambulance and the room looked like it was converted to a room from a laundry room due to florescent lighting narrow doorway and we had a corner room with another room like a hidden corner with wooden platform at the entrance - but overall inside the room was clean & the a/c worked fine, no bugs or smoky smell.

The lady kept telling us to turn off the air conditioner. Mattress was old and hard. Pillows were flat. Got cold too. All we had as a blanket was a sheet. Never sleeping there again.

My stay
The lady and man, who I believe are the owners were friendly and helpful. However, the hotel rooms were not clean or properly prepared for guests. My first room had to be changed because it was dirty and smelled fully and my second room was not very clean and was missing some things such as toilet paper/toilet paper hanger, and there was no towel rack. I was also concerned to sleep on the bed because the sheets were full of stains. I will probably not be returning to this place.

Great stay except for one guest
So this is an older hotel near the train tracks and right on historic Route 66. Overall a pleasant stay. The staff/owners were nice and accommodating. Ample parking with one space per room. The room was very clean so you know the owners do take pride in cleanliness. The room had older desk and comforter but still not bad. Restroom/bathroom very well updated. Only downside that I need to add was I believe some of the guests may be long term tenants so they do have their doors open. Sadly the neighbor to us played his music in his room until about 2am and some guy in the parking lot was screaming explatves at 2:30am. Although my wife and son slept through it made me a bit concerned about safety. This really isn’t the hotels fault and possibly to be expected with the diverse guests you have at a budget hotel. Overall a good stay and would be above average, 6-7/10.

Bait & Switch?
Booked the Colonial Motel based on recent reviews that it was ok. It was very inexpensive, so my expectations were low. Clean would have met expectations When checking inn I was told my room was next door at the Ranchito Motel they owned. Don't know why, but based on the Ranchito I doubt the Colonial could have been much better. Room key card didn't work so owner replaced batteries in the door and then still had to get a new card. TV remote only turned TV off and on. Housekeeper showed me how to change channels on a box on the side of the TV and that was that. Floor and most flat surfaces was dirty. Original towels were disgusting, some type of faded orange stains. I don't want to guess what that color started out as. Housekeeper must have know the condition and brought replacements without being asked. Big dogs that were kept on the property barked some during the night, but I was very tired and it didn't bother me much. I wish I had slept in my car instead of this place.
