Room was very clean as the outside of the property. I travel as a single woman, South West Motel is a very safe place to stay.

My stay at Southwest Motel was fantastic! The room was clean and the couple managing the property (who checked me in) are super nice, kind, and helpful. It was an added bonus staying in a classic, retro, iconic Historic Route 66 motel! I would definitely recommend staying here.

The gentleman in the office upon my check-in was very kind and helpful! The room was so cozy with great amenities (microwave, fridge and freezer, coffee maker with real coffee - although I didn’t make any, it was appreciated), and a surprisingly spacious bathroom. The bed was super comfortable too! Vintage charm.
