The mint green appliances in the room, even a rotatory phone may you feel you were back in the 60's & 70's. Breakfast is simple continental breakfast. But the owners told us all about the things to see of the Old Route 66 in the area. The Red Oak II is a horse shoe shape drive thru an old town that existed on Route 66. You can get out walk around, however the day we were there it was raining. Battle of Carthage State Historical site and they have Drive-In that is still operational. "
