Nice place. Older but it’s historic for a Route 66 stay. The theme rooms are really fun, Elvis, Marilyn, Wild Bill. Great location, nice staff, pool, clean, basic hotel breakfast but good, easy to hop on Route 66 and travel the mother road.

The Rail Haven needs a lot of deferred maintenance. desk person gave us a crappy room and we had to change. Hardly anyone there in a Wednesday night, so why try to stick us in a tiny outdated room. we left before breakfast but the coffee was good. Another gentleman helped us move and mentioned there are different sizes of rooms and furnishings. Paid a 127.00 for a room. Did have a nice bed and pillows.

One of the few truly handicapped accessible units that we have ever stayed at. Parking at the door, shower completely accessible, no tub that they can't get over. Employes were friendly and everything was clean. Nice breakfast but very small dining area. Right on Route 66 with all the flair!

Very fun place to stay. You can tell the property is older as the room did have a musty smell. Bottom bunk was very uncomfortable. Breakfast area is TINY. But loved the stay in such a historical area. Pool was great.

We had a great experience—the staff was friendly, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. One of the highlights for me was the daily continental breakfast, which isn’t an amenity you find at many motels. We would not mind booking another stay if ever in Springfield Missouri in the future.

We were lucky in getting the Elvis room. We enjoyed the room. The Cadillac couch was awesome. Jacuzzi tub was great. A/C was great. Very quiet right on Route 66. Breakfast good. Bed was great. Might be aware the Elvis picture has blue neon light that is bright that has no switch to turn it off. We enjoyed the whole place! Would stay here again.

The Location was easily accessed, the late night staff were very accomodating. The history and decor were what truly made it a unique place to stay. Best Western banked on the relationship to one of America's most beloved highways and the history of travelers like The King who stayed there. I loved this place and will return with my family if we can ever plan the Route 66 road trip!!!
