“Wonderful Place”

Grand Motel

Jan 26, 2008
0/1 found this review helpful

My husband and I stayed here for 2+ weeks while waiting for our rental home to be ready.

We stayed in room #1....This room is really great for extended stays...Spacious....Comfortable....and Clean, oh I can't forget to mention Warm..you do wait a few minutes for the hot water to come over, but when it does that shower is great. Even our cat loved her visit here.

Bob is an excellent host...We would recommend anyone to stay here...and when you do...Don't forget to say hi to little Lucy.
This sure is a GRAND MOTEL.

“A step back in Time”

I was expecting the place to be a disaster after arriving. I had to wait to check in and was a little put off by the appearance. After I checked in and was let into my room I was pleasantly surprised. The furniture was all antique but the bedding was fresh, new, and comfortable. The outdoor breakfast was a highlight of our stay. It was fun to sit with fellow travelers and the owner and enjoy breakfast. It is within walking distance of dinning, shopping, and entertainment. If you want to avoid the high prices of the Grand Canyon and don’t mind the hour drive to get back and forth to the Park it is a great value.

If you do your homework then you will get what you expected. A taste of nostalgia but with mod cons, clean comfortable beds, constant hot water and a host that can answer all your questions. We stayed 2 nights and enjoyed an openair breakfast on the first day but as the weather had deteriorated Bob left a list to order breakfast and brought it to our room - wonderful! We enjoyed our stay, thank you Bob.

Well, same comment as many others. Sweet little place along R66 very close to dt Williams and to the GC train (no noises).
Breakfast is great so are the contacts with other guests. Also clean and the owner does everything to make things comfortable.
Don't expect large rooms or luxury but that's not the reason to stay here. Prices hardly can be beaten.

The Grand Motel in Williams is a perfect stop along route 66. My girlfriend and I stopped here for one night on our way to the Grand Canyon. We loved it. For the price you will not beat it.

We stayed in the "Route 66" room. The room is basic but clean. The furninture is vintage and in surprisingly good shape for it's age. Liked the red curtains and pictures of classic cars. Nice touch.

The king bed was very comfortable and the new heating/ac unit was whisper-quiet. Slept great.

In the morning we enjoyed breakfast with the owner and some fellow travellers. Lucy and Ethel, the resident cat and dog, stopped in to give their regards. Wish we had stayed another night.
