So this place is pretty much a cool find. It looks like it's been recently purchased by new owners…read moreand their working hard at cleaning it up. It was very affordable ($45 a night) and the bed was SUPER comfortable. Each room has small fridge and microwave. Soft, fluffy white towels and is cozy. There's also a wardrobe and a comfy chair and soft sheets. I was pretty shocked the room was so nice cause the outside isn't so great. It's also located quite a bit off the freeway, which is nice because you get a decent night's sleep. Right across the street is small lounge and restaurant. Had cocktails that night in the lounge (no food there after 8pm) and a pretty typical diner breakfast in the lounge the next day. The Desert Sun Motel is a nice little oasis in the desert.

Traveling from California to St. Louis, Mo on old Route 66 was something we had been planning for a…read morelong time. Being able to not take interstate highways for a lot of the trip AND having no clue where we were going to spend each night was something we looked forward to. Arriving late afternoon in Winslow we drove slowly past the Desert Sun Motel. The rooms were in a semi circle around a huge pea gravel parking area. We checked in to room 22 and I must say that it was one of the nicest budget places we have stayed in a long time. At $40 including taxes, this was not the cheapest place we stayed in, but the room was one of the best. It had recently been remodeled and the bathroom was just like home ... spacious, nice tile, well lit ... really clean and roomy. The bedroom had a most comfortable mattress and armoir, sitting chair with ottoman and TV. The room had a very neutral odor ... no cover ups here ... and very quiet during the evening. Driving through Winslow might scare most people off from stopping, but take the time to walk around, have a cup of coffee and definitely stay overnight at the Desert Sun. Nice managers and nice motel. You will think you are back in the 50's again.

Room was themed (Arizona) and comfortable. Room as well as property was very clean. As i was arriving late, my paperwork and keys were found where they said they would be. The vintage vibe is wonderful. Slept well, didn't hear anyone else even though the lot was full. I would stay here again.
