I really like this motel. It’s my third stay. It is very basic, but the price is right and it is conveniently off Rte 40. It is funky, 50s or 60s vintage, no frills, a little shabby, but clean and comfortable. The parking is right in front of the rooms, which not always the case and it is all ground floor. It can be a little noisy.

This is an older Route 66 motel but the room is clean and the staff are very friendly. This was my third stay. I will say I wish they had ice but it's not a deal breaker.

The place is small and an older local hotel. The lady at desk was nice and helpful. The property looks like an old hotel from back in the HWY 66 days but it has been remodeled on inside of rooms and they are nice. Considering the price it is a good value and clean place to stay. I would stay again.

When we decided to take a Route 66 trip, we looked for things recognizable and were happy to see that the Blarney Inn in Shamrock, Texas, was still there. We remembered it being clean and comfortable, now it's SHINEY CLEAN AND COMFORTABLE. Even the small laundry was scrubbed after every use! If you are looking for a true Route 66 experience, choose the Blarney room with confidence; it's a true Mom and Pop Motel but extravagant compared to our stay 53 years ago.

This place lies about their fees. There are much better hotels in the area that actually charge less because they don't misreprrenst their fees. Liaras and fraudaulent thieves. Stay elsewhere.
