Old school vintage motel right on Rt 66. It was the perfect vibe for an overnight on our road trip. The only downside was a shortage of outlets, which isn't a surprise in many of these older motels. Fortunately, I anticipated this and brought a power strip. I'd suggest that you do the same. There are busy train tracks across the street, so you will likely notice the cargo trains passing by during the night. For my train loving family, this was a bonus, and we enjoyed watching them pass by. The room was clean, there was plenty of parking and the employee I spoke to was pleasant. read more

Ramblin' Rose Motel - Hotels Near Me - Kingman, Arizona

This is a great little motel owned by a nice family who takes great pride in their business. There was a similar motel that was twice as much and we chose this one because it looked just as nice. The owners really did us a solid because we accidentally booked our stay for the night before we actually wanted to stay there and when we got in and they realized what had happened they were happy to make sure we had a nice room without a reservation for that night. That goes a long way in this day & age and really speaks to what kind of people they are! On to the room: First in the line of importance, the bed. It was a new pillow top and very comfy with clean soft sheets and a groovy new comforter. We both slept very good in this bed. These rooms have been updated and are cozy - including new carpet & nice decorative trim along the top of the room. The bathroom has been renovated. The shower was a nice marble shower with plenty of room to move around and the water got hot right away. The bathroom floor was a nice tile that looked like gray washed wood. The old "motel" towel racks have been removed & replaced with new ones and they put in a nice big mirror which was great. There was also a new toilet. The room had a larger refrigerator and microwave. And the coffee pot was new and really nice. There was also a 42" TV with cable and plenty of stations to watch and there was also a large closet & dressing area. When we were here the temperature got down into the lower 30's but the room heater & a/c worked great. (They told us to turn it on you had to flip the switch inside the door) This ended up being a great motel and we are very happy we decided to stay here and we would definitely stay here again! ...another 5 star experience!! read more

The desk clerk was courteous. The room smelled and looked clean. But the towels were thin and small, like something they used to throw at us in my high school's locker room. But worst of all, shower faucet has been modified so that it can't be turned more than a few degrees past room temperature. Unforgivable. I chose the place after a 10 hour drive from San Francisco. I was trying to avoid the chain motels and give a local business a shot..Too bad. I sure was looking forward to a hot shower. read more

Receptionist was very unhelpful. I let him know I'd be leaving a review detailing my experiences. He then refused to give me the keys to the room, laughed and said he didn't care as he had charged me anyway. Now have to waste my time getting the money back from booking website. Have no idea what the rooms are like but wouldn't go anywhere near a place that is happy to defraud its customers like this. read more

Old motel in Kingman, from an era bygone. Older gentleman and his wife seem to run it. He was very kind at check-in. Gave my little girl and I a first floor room as requested. Is it outdated a bit? Yes. However we got a good-night sleep, a hot shower and parking right in front of room for under $75usd. My daughter loved 3 Disney channels and an in room microwave and refrigerator. Dominoes delivers wicked fast. I do hope the lock in room 110 gets secured a bit more. The fan/air-conditioning unit was excellent for blocking all train noise. That was extremely helpful. read more

Very clean place with vintage accents as well as a newer remodeled bathroom. I had flaked and booked the wrong day which could have been a disaster had it not been for this super kind family owned business. Rooms were super affordable, clean and they were so nice and attentive. Plus the motel is right on Route 66 as an added bonus. Would definitely stay here again. read more

Very clean. Friendly staff, great location Appears to have been recently upgraded. Great place for the price.

DON'T STAY HERE!!! Cockroaches The owners watch everything you do. It's creepy. Said cockroaches were water bugs coming up from the sewer pipes and they wouldn't hurt me. I left read more

Easy check in, clean room, easy access and wonderful experience overall. Also in a sea of $100 plus rooms this $50 plus one was a refreshing breath of fresh air experience. read more

Noisy, noisy, noisy. Train 1/2 block away. Main street right in front of the poorly insulated building. The trains don't stop running until 11 PM. Then they start all over again at 4:30 AM. Cheap, but is it really worth the cost savings? read more

Cute motel on Route 66. Older, retro but very quaint and clean. We had a peaceful and cozy rest, and the gentleman that assisted us was very kind and friendly. I absolutely recommend this motel and will come back on our next visit. read more

Ramblin' Rose Motel - Room at the Ramblin Rose - Hotels Near Me - Kingman, Arizona

Awesome bed, very clean rooms. Inexpensive not bad for the old Route 66 feel. Can't beat the price with a very friendly staff!

This hotel is quite a bit off the highway if you are coming North (so you are not lost if you keep driving a bit) and to get back on the highway you actually go through Kingman itself--however, I passed the Human Bean and that made my morning! The man who checked my daughter and I in was very nice, and he upgraded me to a king b/c sleeping with a child is never easy ;) As someone said below, room 110 has something off with the lock and it still does. It took me a few minutes to open it, and the top lock didn't work. However, I did feel very safe. Nicely redone bathroom, I love seeing the train out of the front. Coffeemaker and fridge in room, and a microwave. Bed was comfortable and mattress was clean (I strip beds at hotels before I get in them), as was under the bed and the a/c filter (yes, I check those too). Will be staying there again. Would have been 5 stars except for my temper tantrum trying to get the door to open. read more

Stayed in room 208 on 11-1-2021.  Super vintage cute!  Check-in was friendly and efficient. Room was spacious, clean and appointed. I totally dug the huge closet. Bed was comfortable and the room had coffee, fridge and microwave.  The only negatives were the heat light in the bathroom didn't work, the toilet ran intermittently, and the shower was a vintage trickle, but wet enough to do the job.  Yes, the motel is near the train tracks so there's some noise, but it didn't bother me since I live near tracks.  As I wrote this, it was 58 degrees outside and I was completely warm (almost hot!) under the sheets, sans heater. The night cost $50.98. Grade:  B Would stay again?  Yes read more

Clean, comfortable room. Quiet neighborhood. Friendly staff. Nice job on the included breakfast. Easy in/out. No complaints.

We are so glad we chose this little gem. Convenient for our one night layover. The gentleman owner is as sweet and accommodating as can possibly be wished for. However, if you can't tolerate fluorescent lighting this is not the place for you. Everything else is cozy but these lights are hard to get use to. Hey! It's just one night. Clean and fresh. Great A/C's. WiFi. Extra pillows available. Can't beat the price. We'd do it again. Just hate the lighting. Just saying. Not very relaxing. So come. Brush your teeth and hit the hay :) read more

Great that the room was clean and parking a breeze, but what really has to be the best shower I've had in years, makes Ramblin' Rose a tremendous motel stay. Thanks to Kingman's water pressure and a large flow shower head, one gets to feel really, really clean from the hot rushing shower. Take note of the proximity to the railway tracks across the street because many trains are going to pass by your window into the night. So be forewarned. The fridge and microwave in the room makes up for it IMO. read more

I was fortunate enough to stay at the Rambling Rose last night in Kingman Arizona with my husband. Such a sweet place to stay. The bed was very comfortable and the room was very clean.The young lady at the front office was so sweet and lovely. I would totally recommend this place and I will definitely love staying here on my next trip coming through Kingman. It is very close to historic Route 66 and downtown area. Great find! Blessings to you, Crystal read more

This place is an old piece of past America , right on Route 66 as it's described, though that's debatable, it's best points are very reasonable $62 a night, very clean for a building probably 50 years old. Friendly owners- no pool- just a clean room- cheap and lots of hot water too. read more

5 stars for what it is. It is a little scruffy but clean. It is cheaper than Motel 6 & much better.

I rented this room for one week. The owner was kind and the room was very clean. Any friends visiting will stay here read more

I have stayed at this motel since the beginning of covid. The Family own couple both are very nice, helpful and friendly. It seems not appealing on the outside, It is very well kept clean room comes with microwave, fridge, coffee maker and ice bucket. Good WiFi. Great Heater keep nic and toasty warm. Cute Vanity between closet and bathroom. No bugs and cockroaches like other motels charge at the same or little less rate. Rate per day is fairly reasonable. Be Nice if have special weekly rate if needed for extended stay. read more

Very clean room in this vintage era motel run by a conscientious family, not a corporation. Their low rates (which do not reflect lack of care), plus amenities and easy parking make this motel a great bargain and give it a 5-star rating. There was no stale odor that pervades other older motel rooms. All rooms at Ramblin' Rose are non-smoking, and I think visitors abide by the rule. (Other guests were on the the far side of parking lot with their morning cigarettes and saying what a "find" Ramblin' Rose was.) Two weeks before we had stayed at the Motel 6 nearby and it was a disaster: We had to move three times before we got a room where the sink drained and AC/heat worked. AND the Ramblin' Rose charged $10 less than the Motel 6 although the Ramblin' Rose room had a fridge, microwave, and coffee maker Motel 6 had none of those in the room. Freight Trains run not far away, maybe a downside for light sleepers. The decor is not corporate bland: a mix of patterns on the carpet, bed spreads, curtains, and trim and the same flower photos over both beds. Oh, and it was the most comfortable bed I had slept in during our 2-plus weeks of travel. read more

I had taken a solo trip to the Grand Canyon. But I was staying in Las Vegas oh, and I had driven down. Not wanting to drive 4-5 hours back to Las Vegas, I decided to stop and Kingman Arizona for the night. I am a budget Traveler so I like to find affordable low-cost hotels but for a good value. And this little hotel was definitely a good value for the price. The outside doesn't look like much. When I got there, I went into the lobby and was greeted by a man, and then I believe his mother came out and took care of the rest of my check in. It seems to be a family-run hotel. She was a very friendly and nice, during check-in and check-out. For a king size bed, I paid $50 for the room for one night. The room was very large, much more than you would expect for the price. The room included a king size bed, a flat screen TV, a mini fridge, a microwave, a desk area, table and chairs, a little closet to hang up your stuff, and a bathroom attached. I've been to some Motel sixes where I have paid more and gotten far less for what I got here for less money. Plus, this little hotel is also on a little stretch of Route 66, and it's right down the road from some restaurants. I drove one minute down the road to grab some dinner, so it was very convenient. All in all, I really like this little hotel. The only thing that I might say against it, is that it is located close to some train tracks, so various times throughout the night, I would hear a train passing by, loudly. But I honestly did not care how about that very much. The bed was one of the most comfortable beds I had slept in a hotel before. Thank you for the good night sleep Ramblin Rose Motel :) read more

In this Motel you will receive what you're paying for... Not more or less. The turning point that could make you go very far away it is not the fact they have new carpeted rooms or clean sheets but the fact the attitude of the attendants are really TERRIBLE. They DO NOT know how to treat customers at all. So... If you want to come for a cheap room... Yes... This is a good place. Just remember that the customer experience is going to be also CHEAP!! read more

We stayed one night here because my wife had an interview in golden valley. This was one of the cheapest motels and we took a chance! The owner is super friendly and helpful. The pace is old but I was surprised at how clean the room was! A bit outdated but definitely good for the price! Mattress was clean as were all the linens! And I'm super weird about beds. Overall, impressed. read more

It's hard to really knock this place since the rooms range between 29.99 for a single and 34.99 for a double. Is it seriously possible to bash a completely acceptable roadside motel with a pricepoint like this? No, I don't think so. The owner's wife greeted us at the desk and regaled us with her life story of starting growing up in Zambia and making it not just to the US for school, but ultimately to Kingman, AZ. Nice woman and the rooms are fine for what they are. Fast free wifi is the name of the game here. My only complaint was that there was this whine from the pipes all night that was really annoying in the bathroom. Ended up sleeping with my Bose noise cancellation headphones to fix that. Clean place, no complaints. $35, can't go wrong at that price....well at least not here in Kingman! read more

Avoid this hotel. Sleep in your car if you have to and shower at a truckstop. Filthy. I wouldn't even wash my dog in that tub. One huge bug - I tried to put a saddle on it and ride it but decided I better kill it instead. Seriously, don't even consider staying here. One star would be a complement for this place. What a disgusting hole. read more

The lady at the front desk woke up for our late arrival and took care of us with no complaints. With such a late arrival, we slept late, but she let us stay a little late to prepare. We were surprised at how clean everything was, and wow!!! The location is RIGHT where you want to be to see downtown and Route 66 in Kingman. The sound of the train nearby was soothing and a nice surprise. Obviously, anyone who does not like that sound should stay away, but it is a smooth train and not a clanker. We will definitely be back. PS: They've made improvements we've seen over the years, and despite the minimally-working refrigerators, this place could be a 5/5 very soon. read more

Perhaps the people rating it better stayed in a nice room, hard to imagine. It's old and beat up, TV remote doesn't work, probably doesn't matter though the TVs 20+ years old. Rolled up torn carpet broken fixtures, broken lamp. Yelp had them under dog friendly motels, definitely not the case. Big sign on the front door says no pets allowed. Had to negotiate and get in a smoking room, and was too tired to look for any other motels. Added $10 to the price. Ha!!! Staircase leading to upstairs units has a stop work order on it due to owners not getting a permit. But the lady at the front desk was nice, and I don't really know how much more to expect for $60. Checked in at 11 PM and wasn't going to pay the 120 to stay at the best western just to sleep for six hours. read more

Can I give the place and hosts a MINUS 5? The room seen on the web site is false advertising. They apparently cleaned up one room for the picture. The room I was in has not been painted or upgraded since it was built. There was four different colors of white paint on the marred, scratched, gouged, walls. The newest thing in the room was a 30 year old TV that kept changing channels by itself. Hosts Kim and Mike???? I've never known or heard of any Middle Easterners with American names. Last name is Bhakta. I guess it makes since if you want to hide your no pride in ownership culture. The live behind office smelled like roasting goat and nose burning spices. Kim is RUDE, RUDE, RUDE, even when you're trying to be friendly. The Kingman preservation and historical society should be ashamed of themselves to allow the deterioration of a Route 66 landmark. I'm Just curious. Is it possible to see a review on Expedia while it's still being written, (not yet posted)??? I was in the process of writing it when Kim? knocked on my door and said she was watching the review and if I didn't like the room I could leave, which I did immediately. The only way I know of reading an in progress review is if you have a hidden camera in the room, which after receiving Kim's??? comments to my original review I believe is certainly possible. 5 minus stars, two thumbs and two big toes down, and a hold your nose, rating. Another American landmark gone to hell.. Buying U.S. Motels and convenience stores is what Obama's billions are being spent on. Unfortunate. read more

For the price you pay to stay here, I'd say it's a pretty damn good deal. The front desk lady was kind and helpful when I checked in. The water is hot, there's coffee, the bed is super comfortable, and the heater works very well. It's very spacious and comfortable. The view from the second floor is beautiful. There's a cute vanity which is a plus. My only complaint is that the water pressure in the shower is very strong. But I would rather have it be too strong than not strong enough. The room was very clean when I arrived. I stayed for three nights and I heard them cleaning other rooms around me so I don't doubt the cleanliness whatsoever. It's definitely not a modern hotel and there's no free breakfast. The trains can be loud at night because it's right next to tracks but it didn't bother me at all. I would stay again and I highly recommend if you're on a budget and want to get the best bang for your buck. read more

The worst - I assumed all motels were able to supply "handicapped" rooms but since staying here I learned that's not true. It's owned by a married couple - the husband is very likeable and said they had no handicapped rooms available but he could accommodate me with a room that would be easy for me to navigate in. I tried walking up their handicapped ramp but it is too dangerous. It seemed they took 2 concrete stairs and placed concrete over them, smoothed them out & maid a big concrete mound. This is dangerous & doesn't meet handicapped standards. After refusing to use it the husband Mike directed me to a parking place & room. Again, I couldn't navigate the parking place & step to get into my room but Mike was kind enough to assist me. He also said if I needed his assistance again to just call him. After a day of rest I got a phone call from Mike's wife telling me to get out of the hotel because it wasn't good for handicapped people. I asked what her name was but couldn't understand it. I then asked if she was an owner of the motel & she said no. (She lied) Now she got nasty and said I had to leave. I told her I had paid for 5 days, what about my $$$$? She said she would refund if but I had to get out! I did nothing wrong. Outside my room she was walking around, I asked if she was Mike's wife again she lied to me & said no. I have always had a hard time remembering names & couldn't remember the name over the phone. I will never return to this horrible place ever. They gave me my money back & I left. read more

Very clean and comfortable, good price nice service. On old Route 66. In old part of town very quaint.
