Good place on Route 66
Best Western Rail Haven on 66, is a cute motel if you want your car parked by your door. It was a clean, comfortable and friendly staff.

Decent overnight stay
It was a cute and nicely maintained old route 66 roadside motel. The rooms were small back then, sondon't expect much. The breakfast was mediocre, the beds were fairly comfortable, the pillows were oddly small (like 1'x1' squares), and our TV kept losing signal on the channels. Overall, it was just a decent stay. Nothing bad, nothing great.

Coolest Vibe
First off, just driving into the property is so cool! Classic cars and signage give it the vibe of a retro motor court. We got the Western room and it was probably the most unique experience I’ve ever had. The attention to detail is stunning. The staff were also friendly and very helpful. Overall, I highly recommend!!

We stayed there while visiting my son. Nice little hotel could use a update but that is part of it's charm. Was worried about traffic noise but was not a issue. Staff where great. Breakfast was basic but good. Will stay there again.

Yes it’s an older property but cleanliness and staff friendliness gives them greater than a 5 star. I’ve been in the hotel industry for many years and this property is great.

Deceiving Pictures
Online pictures are very deceiving. This is not a hotel-it’s a motel!! We needed a place that we could gather in, like a lobby for our group-forget it, there isn’t one. The staff was very friendly and it was clean, just not what was advertised. Very very disappointed

The quickest Check in I had on this trip was done by a very pleasant and efficient woman at the front desk!
Place was quiet furnace was warm but fan came off and on frequently, but not much of a disturbance. Rooms were small but adequate. Queen beds were very comfortable. I didn’t wait for breakfast so can’t comment on it.

Not good
We stayed 2 nights in 2 different rooms. Cleanliness was an issue in both rooms. But the 2nd was just not good. Sheets had stains, tub looked just not sanitized and just bad so we just didnt use it. Bathroom was the worst, stains around the door ( which did get cleaned with a wipe so they just didnt clean it) there was a half used soap on the floor of the shower and a hair on the shower head. It seemed like they just didnt clean it. It was just very disappointing .
