Totally worth the price!! Would stay again awesome experience, I felt like I was staying at my great grandparents house again. She walked us to our room and showed us to settle us in. It's a 1930s building that scared me at first but ended up being awesome. Not a lot of room for luggage bags ut was very clean with remodeled shower. No ice machine and gravel parking but like I said it's an experience and it is really beautiful if you take the time to appreciate it.

Didn't get in until late. Truck broke down, so had to wait on tow. Staff was very polite and helpful. Even helped out with a bike jump when it wouldn't start. Historic look, but clean and warm room. Would recommend definitely!

For $45 a night with two beds in separate rooms and a kitchen with microwave, fridge, oven and stove this is a bargain for being 20 minutes away from Williams where you pay $125-$200 a night. It's an older property but has clean sheets, comfortable beds and nice towels. The pillows are kinda flat but who cares we always bring our own pillows. The owner is very nice and we are not big fans of the in room gas heater which did really worked well but because of the smell he gave us a plug in electric heater that kept our room nice and cozy while it was 20 degrees outside at night. The property looks run down on the outside but it's clean on the inside with a nice bed for a perfect sleep before coming or going to the Grand Canyon.

The Copperstate Motel is another iconic representation of Historic Route 66. It is very good for what it is. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Microwave and fridge in our room. The owners and other guests are friendly. Built in the 1930's(?) the rooms are dated. Note that there are storage sections with different stone work between the room buildings. I'm told that they were originally areas for horses and carriages. We would stop in again. Lulu Belles BBQ is a short walk. Great food. The Ash Fork Route 66 Museum was interesting and worth visiting. We had a nice day trip loop Sedona, Jerome, Williams (stop at the Sultana Bar for one) and back to Ash Fork. Heading east to Ash Fork? Get off the interstate at Kingman to follow a nice section of Historic Route 66.

Doesn't look like much on the outside. AndAndBut building is old. A leftover from the old Route 66 days. Nothing fancy. But rooms are clean. Beds descent. Nice western mural painted on a wall. Would stay again. Well worth the $35.

45 bucks for a night, great deal. Wasn't expecting much but was extremely pleasantly surprised. Room was very clean, and had a quaint feel to it. Rooms had kitchenette and very modern bathroom. Manager was extremely friendly. Overall, great place, would stay again on our say through town.

Rooms are cozy and clean. Beds are in good shape. The staff is polite and helpful. It isn't in perfect condition but for $45/night we will gladly keep stopping here on trips through the area.

This was surprisingly a really beautiful motel with a gorgeous view of the night sky. It’s areas like these that truthfully allow one to be in awe of God’s wondrous ethereal splendor. The night view from this area could potentially provide the muse for your next novel, anthology or movie script. I came here on my route towards California when I was anticipating working for a particular employer. Although that did not ultimately manifest, I appreciated the opportunity to be in this part of Arizona (Crazily enough, the name of the town was reminiscent of a boyfriend from my past). My motel room was beautiful in its simplicity and provided a temporal glimpse into a past before today’s current mass use of technology. I would only warn about possible bed bugs as I did experience some sensations of bites in the wee hours of the morning. Bug spray may likely be necessary but moreso as a precaution. Enjoy!
