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 Room is very outdated, blanket had cigarette holes which it's a none smoking room, which the room smelled fine.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?

i’m grateful for a low-cost option to sleep for the night and to get out of the heat, on a multiple day trip of driving. I really wanted to leave a great review, but I’ll leave it all right one. Staff was extremely friendly. The door jam though somebody broke it and it wasn’t allowing me to get back into my room. So I had to go to the front desk every time I left my room or went to my car without sticking a chair in the door frame to keep the door open. The shower is usable, but it’s awkward. The shower is too steep on the inside for the water to drain, but water would still fill up and my feet were on the edges of the shower area trying not to fall in. So I don’t recommend for people who have standing disabilities. But friendliness and affordability go along way.

Get what you paid for basically. Building is falling apart, but the room inside is renovated a bit. Not good front desk service at check-in, no breakfast nor services really. I did see an ice machine but not sure if it works. In the room there's no toilet paper roll in the bathroom and the tv didn't work. No security bolt on the door either. It's a place to sleep and that's about it.

Probably the top 5 worst hotel i have ever stayed at. The linen and pillows were very old, shower drained very slowly so you stood in ankel deep water that flowed into the floor. We had ants all over our floor when we came back one night, you could not hear the tv if the ac was on. Tha5s just in the room. The outside look horrible and run down. Chipping paint, weeds and long grass, trash all over, and a funky smell at ice machine. I guess you do get what you pau for.

The check-in and checkout procedure was quick and easy. The photos of the room displayed on Expedia do not match what the room actually looks like. You get what you pay for. Linens were fine. Mold under the restroom sink. Fridge and microwave were a plus. Parking was fine but be wary if you have more than 1 car, they do not track cars parked in the lot. Heater works. Walkable distance to downtown and plenty of food options walking as well. Gas station across the street. No problem with next door rooms and guests.

It’s quiet, convenient, and very affordable. The hotel is quite old, and while the cleanliness isn’t great, it’s still acceptable for the price.

The staff is wonderful and does a nice job with what they have to work with. The floors and walls are rickety and it really needs a total remodel from floors on up…just painting won’t get it.

Would not recommend.

Pros:
Available fairly last minute
Pet friendly
Family (3 beds) room options
Warm heater
Friendly desk clerk
Cheaper than most (but you get what you pay for)

Cons:
The hotel room overly strong of cleaner but the blankets were definitely NOT clean. Damaged walls, poor water pressure, missing toilet paper holder, bugs, loud refrigerator, very uncomfortable beds, lack of enough electric outlets. The whole place just felt gross/neglected and we spent an extremely restless night trying to get very little sleep. Also the parking lot is super cramped and difficult to manuever in.
