Staff was professional, room was clean. Was always able to get fresh towels and my coffee I needed to start my day. Thank you very much for the stay and friendly service!
Two very large beds. user friendly A/C unit. large TV. Wonderful family managed the place. Friendly, Many good places to eat nearby. Would definitely stay here again.
The staff was super helpful and amazing. Their a very nice family. The rooms was super clean for the price. Very quiet and for the price id much rather stay here then spend 100$ anywhere else
My husband and I were traveling Route 66 and decided to stay here. It's an original motel on the route. It brought back memories of my childhood. I would stay here again!
Plaza Motel is very decent for what you're paying. It's definitely a small, no frills place, but I've seen a lot worse for the same price. When we got there the smoke alarm was chirping. The staff was very nice and prompt about fixing it. They are very security conscious and have some unusual rules in order to help keep skeevy people out.
