Wonderful staff and loving retro room!! Would definitely recommend!!
Sandra, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I’ve stayed at the Sunset Motel twice now and both times have gone great. It’s dog-friendly, close to multiple places to eat, safer than Albuquerque (my opinion), and it has historic charm. The staff is always friendly and the check in & out process is always fast and easy.

Quaint and quiet. Great that I could pull my 26' truck right up to the room. We made the right choice in selecting this motel.
Steve, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay if you want some original Route 66 experience. Still owned by the same family that built it. The rooms are spotless and comfortable. They have a feel of the 60’s but yet feel updated. This is definitely a must stay if I come through Moriarty, NM again.

10/10 Exceptional

I’ve stayed here many times over the years, it’s always been a great choice.it was this time as well with only one exception. The water pressure for a bath or shower was vey poor. Never experienced this before so likely a unusual and one time problem
