Sunset Motel Moriarty

Super

I rarely write reviews, but I just had to say something! From the first phone call with Shaunna, the motel manager, to the convenience and cleanliness of this place, every moment was perfect. We called from the road and Shaunna was kind, helpful, and reassuring. We arrived after hours and found our cute little breakfast gift bag with oranges and fresh baked pastries, two chocolate Hersey's Kisses on the nightstand, and a rubber duckie on the edge of the bathtub displayed in our room. For a motel that opened 66 years ago (on route 66 - seriously!), it was cleaner than many newer hotels! I was stunned! We were able to pull our truck and trailer right up to the door of our room and unload it late at night. You have no idea how much my husband appreciated that convenience! And then the little table and chairs right outside our door was great for the first cup of coffee. We very much appreciated the quaint, personal touches. This was a perfect stop and we would be thrilled to stay again. Thank you, Shaunna. And although we didn't get to meet Mike and Debbie Pogue, thank you to you as well, for keeping the charm and integrity of the motel, as it was intended.

If you are looking for a nice, clean, and old style motel on Route 66, this is your place. The room was great and had a fun mid-century decor. The front desk staff was friendly and beds were super comfortable. There was a nice small courtyard and I would much rather stay in a place like this over the other standard options by the highway.
