Staying at this retro, Route 66 motel was one of the highlights of our road trip. It is in the process of being renovated, but the unrenovated rooms have a charming retro feel and are surprisingly spacious for motel rooms. They are a bit run down, as is to be expected, but they are scrupulously clean. The owner was an absolute delight. He directed us to an excellent restaurant and coffee shop, and gave us great information about scenic routes and things to do on the next leg of our journey. We had imagined that our trip would be car camping with occasional stops at motels just like this. Sadly, none of the other motels were even remotely as fun.

I was surprised by earlier reviews, especially regarding the rude owner, until I realized they were refering to the previous owner. Current owner Ron was EXCELLENT re every request I made, and was busy working in providing repairs and maintenance bringing this classic Rt 66 "motor court" back up to its glory days standard. Folks coplaining about real keys, lack of fakey plastic appointments, etc amuse me. Stay in the chains if that's what you want. If you want a REAL authentic Rt 66 motel, these are the kinds you want. HIGHLY recomend, unless you are kardashian-minded. Hiram Hogg, Louisville KY, stayed Sept 2024.

On a move from Las Vegas to Austin, my car broke down, and I ended up staying at the South West Motel on Route 66 for eleven days. Honestly, if I was going to be stranded somewhere, I’m incredibly grateful it was there. The rooms are very affordable and clean, the beds are comfortable, and it has all the basic amenities you would expect. The new owner, Ron, is in the middle of renovating the whole place, and it has a very charming and friendly vibe. Some of his future plans sound very cool. However, what earns this a five star rating (and I wish I could give it even higher), is the staff. The owner, Ron, is about the nicest guy you could ever hope to meet. When I called to make the reservation while waiting on my tow truck, he got me in touch with a very highly regarded, local mechanic who ended up being a Godsend. He also waited up till around midnight when I finally got pulled in and kept in touch with me to make sure I was all right. When I found out what the issue was with my car (it was a blown transmission), he lowered his rates for me since I was going to be stuck there a while. This guy even drove an hour and a half to Albuquerque to pick up my new transmission to save me the time and money for delivery. How nuts is that? The two cleaning ladies were extremely friendly, as well, and always checked to make sure I had everything I needed. It was just a very welcoming place. So, if personality means anything to you, I would highly recommend checking this place out. Edit: I just saw another review about this place that had a horrible experience with the owner. This is a different owner. Ron bought the place a couple months back.

I stayed here with a friend during a Southwest road trip, and it was my first time at Southwest Motel. The location is convenient, right on the main street through town. It's an older one-story place - part of its charm - and it's been nicely kept up. The couple at the office - I assume they're the owners - were friendly and helpful when we checked in. Parking was right in front of the room, which is always convenient. The room was good-sized, and included a fridge/freezer, microwave, desk & chair plus a small table with two chairs, though no coffeemaker and a relatively small TV. Being an older place, it was no surprise that there were not a lot of electrical outlets. Having stayed in Grants once before, I knew that the railway is very close by and trains come through frequently, but running the A/C fan at night masked the railway noise very well and I barely noticed it at all. I knew when I booked the room that the motel did not offer morning coffee or breakfast items. It's a no-frills place but the price was right and it met my expectations. If you're looking for a nice budget motel in Grants, this is one to consider.

This motel is spartan and bare bones. BUT, this is a budget motel. It is clean. The towels are clean and suprisingly soft. The mattress was on the firm side. Comfortable. There are no coffee or hot cups provided so no hot beverage in the morning. Shower only. The manager is friendly and accommodating.
