8/10 Very good

Retro cute and retro internet.
Very good service when we arrived, friendly and informative. The decor was retro cute. The internet was VERY slow, unusable. We were told that there would be breakfast, including waffles. The morning staff informed us that, "He was sorry, but not the normal breakfast person." So, although there was cold stuff to eat, the breakfast was pretty disappointing. The morning staff was more about excuses than service.

This retro motel on route 66 is a fabulous property beside a lake in historic Carthage. The proprietor''s care about preserving the traditions of mid 20th century motels for trans continental travelers. We especially appreciated the laundry and the wholehearted welcome. The decor of the rooms was another unique touch. A great value.

Route 66 Gem
Room was comfortable and clean. Owners were amazingly nice. Along old Route 66, motel is of the era and gives the vibe. If you want a clean, quiet room for a good price this is the place. Kellogg Lake across the road, walking trail and park.

Super cute little place. Older mom & pop style motel. They kept the vintage charm and added some really cute upgrades and touches. Everything was incredibly clean! Amazing pillows. I do wish I would've asked for an extra blanket before going to bed, since I woke up a little chilly, but that's my fault. There's a gas station across the road, but other food options are a couple miles away. That was a fair tradeoff for a reasonably priced, clean, quiet, and safe room. Great job, owners and staff!!

This is an amazing place to stay on the Route 66 trip. An older hotel that has managed to keep the uniqueness and be incredibly clean at the same time. Other hotels should look here for tips on how to run a motel right! So good we overslept and got a late start the next morning. Totally worth it.

Adorable retro motel
This Budget Inn is most definitely on our stay list. We would give 1000 stars if we could. Tasha checked us in and was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean, comfortable. The pool area is beautiful and the sun setting over the lake across the street was stunning. If you are in the area its a must stay. My teenage grandaughter was thrilled with the retro decor. It was also very quiet and one of the best nights sleep I've had in awhile. MUCH nicer than the big vhain hotel the next night.

This was a nice hotel, it was obviously an older facility but was well maintained and the furnishings was amazing, they appeared to be of the 50's decor that presented a nostalgic feeling that to me made it more comfortable.
