To be honest, this hotel has some character to it, which was nice. The staff was nice and courteous, and tolerant of a traveler who was very tired, and just wanted things to be easy. When I arrive at 10:00 PM, there was literally no restaurants open except for Domino’s Pizza, who wanted to charge me $40 for a large pizza, and deliver it two hours later. In a room that had a jet tub, there were only two towels… The entire room was tile, and there was no TV in the bedroom. I liked the hotel, and the motif of route 66, and if I was in a better mood, I would’ve had a good time there. So part of this problem with me, and part of the problem with the actual property. I would actually stay there again!

First impression was not good. Had the stay been refundable, we would have went elsewhere. The lobby smelt like wet basement and marijuanna. The rooms are not soundproof as we could hear everything that was going on in the conference room through the bedroom wall. Our fridge needed thawed as it had a large chunk of ice and was room temperature. Water pressure for the shower and jacuzzi tub was extremely weak..took 20+ mins to fill up the tub abive the jets. All things could u a serious update. However we did enjoy our stay. Staff were courteous and helpful. Overall, i would not recommend them, especially for over 150$ on a thursday night

We stayed one night at Route 66 Hotel. It wasn't the Four Seasons by any means, but for less than $80 on Valentine's Day, it was really good. Our room was clean, but did smell sort of like curry, but my wife and I love curry, so there's that. We ate at the restaurant onsite, and was pretty good. They were understaffed, so we had a wait. But it was worth waiting for. Overall, decent hotel for the money. We would stay there again.

There were a few positives to our stay. I requested flowers in the room for my girlfriend, and the hotel followed through, which was appreciated. The hotel restaurant employees were also excellent. Everyone we interacted with there was kind, friendly, and professional, and they were the best part of our stay. Devin at the front desk was also helpful. Unfortunately, the room experience was very disappointing. Our first room was dirty, with smudged windows, handprints on the walls, and an unclean bathroom. More seriously, we found multiple adult bedbugs, including one on a towel and several in the bed. The room also had little to no hot water, even after following staff instructions and waiting 15 to 30 minutes. We were moved to a second room, but it was still not clean. The curtains were dirty, the bathroom had not been properly cleaned, and there was a roach or similar insect on the floor. This room also had water issues. Some front desk interactions felt dismissive and unhelpful. While we appreciated the flowers and the kindness of the restaurant staff, the cleanliness issues, insects, lack of hot water, and how concerns were handled made this stay unacceptable.

My reservation was to be for Dec 27. After contacting both cash app and Expedia NOONE was able to get in contact with any management at Route 66 to verify that I was not at the property and offer me a refund(cash app pay in four with afterpay) so now not only am I stuck paying this establishment for nothing, I also don't have the reservations for December that I needed.
