Found a new favorite local-owned motel. Perfect for Rt 66 exploration or for Petrified Forest NP. The room was somewhere between cool and quaint. I felt like I had invited myself over for a slumber party. Great stay. Will be back.

Little gem of Holbrook

Great little motel. Very comfortable and accommodating. Chairs outside of room to sit and listen to the train and relax. They kept the rooms almost 100% original.

Authentic Route 66 experience

This is definitely the place to stay to get that Route 66 feeling. Park right outside your room, and enjoy plenty of entertainment on the tv or fast wifi. Most importantly, enjoy the nicely cleaned room.

It's an old Route 66 motel that hasn't been renovated in a while. It was clean but a bit noisy as it's not far from the railway. The bed was confortable.

Place was great. Kitschy. Very Route 66 vibe. Cool spot, good food nearby. Bed was impressively comfortable. High end. My only complaint was the train. Thing was loud and close. But I slept through most of it. If the train wasn't there blaring all night I'd give Brad's a 9/10 easily.

While the folks here worked hard to make this little motel clean and comfortable, they are working with an older building that hasn't been renovated much. It is not as bright and cute as the pictures. Still, there is a terrific Mexican restaurant within walking distance and if you like trains, you get to hear a lot of them very close by

A lock box checkin is unusual for a hotel, especially when no staff are present. It did not lead to a smooth process.

Pretty disappointing stay. Turned up right on 3pm to find the office closed and no one about, so I just wandered around until the clerk showed up with his little dog who wouldn't stop barking at me (and even tried to nip me). The carpark needs to be completely resurfaced with the parks redrawn - they're all over the place. The room was fine but felt small & cluttered, and the floor was badly warped. The train was loud, but nowhere near as bad as Mountain Home ID, so at least I could sleep. Best thing about the place was the classic Dr Who channel.

Unique Comfortable Stay Near Petrified Forest.

I would give this place 5 ⭐️ for a motel. Obviously this is not an all inclusive five star resort but for a motel it’s in the top, as I’ve stayed at a variety of resorts/hotels/motels to provide a true honest rating. Customer service far exceeded my expectations from BEGINNING of my check in till the end. The property contacted me prior to ask what time I was checking in and my reservation change on hotels.com didn’t update properly to postpone a day and they were happy to change it. Easy communication with text message, and offering a call back number if necessary. Property kept clear and polite communication with me throughout my day and I was going to be checking in very late (after 2 A.M.). I was given instructions for a lock box my key would be in and a contact and number if I had any issues. Property vibe is unique and corkey, unlike any other property I passed by in the town of Holbrook. Came into a super comfortable and clean, original decorative room, with the heat turned on (it was cold outside), microwave and fridge, and a shower with great water pressure and temperature. Ended my night with a comfortable bed. Extra perks of this motel is that they have Netflix available as well as it’s super close to Petrified Forest 🪲🌳

The motel is directly attached to a freight train track frequented by screaming train whistle full speed passings many times an hour and through the night. Do not stay here if that is disturbing to you. It sure ruined our stay. The rooms are clean and cute but ridiculously tiny and slipshod. In front is a busy two lane highway frequented by trucks and macho motorcycles too, as if the train wasn’t enough.

I like that one of the historical properties is being brought back to life. There are trains that go close by but i didn't really mind. I would love to see the old sign restored to mid century style. Very reasonable price.

Rooms decorated with a theme, ours was James Dean. Parking in front of room, ground floor. Train stops blowing whistle at night, but vibrates the room. Advertised 2 beds, all rooms have a king bed only. No ice machine. Comfortable bed. Okay for one night, close to petrified forest national park.

Route 66 plus A LOT of Trains

Brad's Desert Inn is what I imagine to be the most authentic of the Route 66 motels from the heyday of auto travel. The motel is adorned with old signage and decor which makes for a little added fun. The room was cozy, bed comfortable and the price was affordable. However... if you are a light sleeper, this is NOT the place for you. You are literally a block away from a very active railroad and you can expect to hear horns all hours of the night which didn't bother me but made for a restless night for my wife. Other than than, all good vibes!
