Clean room and comfortable beds. Renovations not complete but looks like they are getting there. A little trouble getting our check in info, owner was finally reached and apologized saying his phone had died. We were able to get in and had a restful nights sleep!

The Grand Central is nothing fancy, but it is truly clean and comfortable. One of those last little motels that you can stay in that is safe clean and inexpensive. Loved it.

My favorite part is parking right in front of my room, unloading my things into the room, having a code to get into my room, and I really like the ambience of the TV being on the screensaver.

I’ve definitely paid way more for way less. This little property is a diamond in the rough. New owners are working diligently to constantly improve. A great place to stay as we passed through.

I stayed in a basic economy room and it was excellent value. Nice and clean, really comfortable bed and the shower was very powerful. Would definitely stay here again.

FABULOUS GEM! This place is super cool and a nice updated take on the “Route 66 roadside motel”. I arrived after riding a motorcycle across the state and the self check in was AMAZING. Room was super dooper clean. Mattress and pillows were comfy…I slept like a baby. The Roku TV was a nice touch. Great Mexican restaurant across the street.

I chose by lowest price, was pleasantly surprised to find room very clean and comfortable. Right on main road so a little noisy but got a good nights sleep.
