I travel a lot for work, and drive a truck with a small 5x8 trailer. The Sunset Motel has always been safe and accommodating to my travel needs. It is one of the cleanest and quietest places I stay on I-40 in this area. Highly recommend! I'll be booking on my way home from California, as well!

We found this hotel when we were unable to stay in Albuquerque, it's a great out of the way place, really retro but super clean, super quiet, the owners were amazing we even came in a bit late after a concert and they turned on the outside lights on until we got into our room. We will definitely stay there again, we will probably even stay there instead of staying in Albuquerque. Can't say enough good things about this place!
