room was clean and the staff was great.would stay there again
Nice owners. Had a breakfast bag ready for us when we checked in. Room was older(duh) but clean and had a refrigerator and microwave which we used. Beds were comfortable as we spent one night and just passing through. It was safe and convenient
The check in was super easy and the lady was so sweet and helpful. The room was very clean and comfortable . It was like traveling back in time. Will definitely stay again.
This is a lovely place to stay, very clean, very friendly, with added touches that show the owners care for travelers to have a good experience. There's a fine pet walk area and even pet blankets supplied. I highly recommend staying here if you are in the Moriarty area.
Historic property. Super clean. New linens. Everything functional and maintained. Owner made arrangements for my late check in.
Kind folks. Check em out.
I travel a lot for work, and drive a truck with a small 5x8 trailer. The Sunset Motel has always been safe and accommodating to my travel needs. It is one of the cleanest and quietest places I stay on I-40 in this area. Highly recommend! I'll be booking on my way home from California, as well!
Absolutely wonderful little place. A very nice gentleman helped me check in and gave me a bagged breakfast for the next morning. Such a thoughtful touch! The room was spacious, very clean, and very comfortable. I will definitely stay here again!

Highly recommend! Delightful staff, authentic Route 66 family owned motel. Clean room, lovely area. If you find any imperfection, it only adds to the charm.
We found this hotel when we were unable to stay in Albuquerque, it's a great out of the way place, really retro but super clean, super quiet, the owners were amazing we even came in a bit late after a concert and they turned on the outside lights on until we got into our room. We will definitely stay there again, we will probably even stay there instead of staying in Albuquerque. Can't say enough good things about this place!
Late check in called before 10:30 made arrangements for payment and key access at key box. Clean room, nice bedding, bed could be softer but was adequate for a nights rest. Definitely will stay again when traveling through.
