Beautiful room and very quiet.

This motel is beautifully renovated with quality linens, updated bathroom facilities, a nice lounge, and a good location. It is just outside of Old Town and right on Rte 66. It is VERY QUIET, well staffed, friendly, and safe. I would gladly stay here again.

Everything about this property is great. It’s a great location. The property is clean and the rooms look like they were just updated. Check in was easy and the manager was so friendly and helpful. We even got a free beer or wine at the bar with our stay. It’s a gem of a hotel.

Unique motel. Much like motels were when route 66 was built. However this motel is completely remodeled. We got moved from the Monterey Motel to El Vado. It was awesome!

Second time staying here. The family rooms with 4 bunk beds should be a hotel industry standard. Love this hotel and will stay here each time we come through Albuquerque

Loved this place, What a great little motel! It was amazing not to mention the most comfortable beds we’ve slept in other than our own home. The extra lockoff bunk room for our family of 6 was a pleasant surprise addition as well!! The staff was also super friendly

Overall pretty good -

Room initially given had no water pressure, but was moved promptly to an adjacent room. Overall pretty clean and staff pleasant and prompt to help at all times. Shower in second room remained an issue - shower head did not fit in holder properly so moved around when in use and temperature control fluctuated quite a bit Property quiet and central for many sights and surrounded by plenty of food options. Again, staff never an issue - always friendly and happy to help, just facilities need a little work.

Vintage motel beautifully updated.

Monterey Motel is a vintage Route 66 motel that's been completely remodeled but has retained it's classic charm.
