3 beds Family room

Clean room in a convenient location. Wanted to check in an hour early (forgot about time change from Colorado), room was ready, but had to pay a $10 early check in fee. Room had two large beds with 1 side table between them. TV was mounted on the wall. There was a chair, refrigerator, and fold up luggage rack. There was no desk type surface on which to place personal items. Bathroom had toilet, shower, sink. Again, no counter space on which to place personal items.

The room I stayed in had the vinyl tiles lifting off the floor. At night, I saw multiple bugs, most likely roaches, in the bathroom. It’s a close walk to downtown but not worth it.

This is an extreme budget hotel. The staff was very friendly, the room was very clean. It is in a great location. There is a microwave and fridge in the room and an ice machine available. The bed was not very comfortable but we were just passing through town and the price was unbelievably low. For the price, I was just thrilled that it was clean!

I knew we were booking a budget motel. We paid about $110 plus $10 for early check-in, roughly $120 total. I wasn't expecting the Ritz-Carlton. 😂 That said, The L Motel definitely has plenty of “character.” The room was extremely basic, with damaged/separating flooring, a broken bathroom cabinet, and a bathroom door and trim that clearly need maintenance. My biggest concern was privacy. The bathroom window has no curtain or proper covering and faces an outside/back area where someone could potentially see in—or at least see a silhouette. Nothing says relaxation like wondering who's getting a free view while you're showering. 😂 The main room window also lacks adequate curtains, allowing plenty of daylight in and offering limited privacy. To be fair, the AC worked, the beds were usable, and it provided a place to sleep. If you're passing through Flagstaff and only need a cheap room for 8–10 hours, the price may make sense. But if you're traveling with your wife or family and want comfort, privacy, and reasonable maintenance, I'd spend a little more and stay somewhere else. I'm not expecting luxury from a budget motel, but basic privacy, intact flooring, functioning cabinets, and a decent bathroom door shouldn't be luxury amenities. 😂 I'm including photos so you can judge for yourself. Would I stay again? Maybe if I desperately needed the cheapest room for one night. Would I bring my family back? No.

If you want something cheap to sleep and shower this is your place

There was a few people smoking in front of they're rooms that worried us a little but for a low cost motel was expected.

Just the ice machine didn’t always have ice

Room size was good, had family room. First night i had to take a/c apart to clean the filter, the filter was clogged and looks like it was never cleaned because the coils were even clogged, so I had to clean it. Floors turned our socks black looked like it had not been mopped. There were tiny beetle type bugs all over the room, walls, bed, curtains,base boards I made sure they weren't bed bugs, thank goodness I didn't see any of those. Room is very outdated, blanket had cigarette holes which it's a none smoking room, which the room smelled fine. Parking lot is so small hard to get in and out. I only picked this place because it had a room with 3 beds and it was me and my 2 daughters and my daughter was having surgery and needed her own bed, so only reason I chose place. We got there at dark and was very hard to find. Its on a very busy road but the one thing that was good I did not here the traffic or noise coming from other rooms. I'll probably never go there again.

The L Motel was absolutely one of the most pleasant motel stays I've had in Flagstaff. The room was very nice and super cute looking. The staff was very friendly and the booking was very affordable. I highly recommend this place to any visitors coming to town. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. I will most certainly be returning in the future.

It's definitely an older motel, it gives off its own unique vibe. But the floors are dirty whenever I go to a hotel I put a damp white hotel towel and I run it across the floor and at every hotel that towel comes up black and this one was no exception. Why is that?
-
The room certainly could have been cleaner, and the hotel attendant knocked on the door at 10:15AM reminding me that the checkout time was 11AM--a bit rude.

Couldn’t find the remote for the air conditioning

I don’t have time I don’t have time I don’t have

Looks can be deceiving, this place may look rough around the edges from the outside but for the best price and location in town this was exactly what I’m looking for and why I will highly consider it again when I come back to Flagstaff because it’s affordable and newly renovated

sketchy poor english false advertisement of website looking nice overrated and priced
