At this point arrival is like homeboy from home. I spent more time here than I do with my actual home and I’m much more comfortable. Thank you to the entire staff for always being so warm and welcoming.

My stay was ok, the hotel is in a busy street if you dont pay 25 dollars per day for valet parking the only option is to find street parking if your lucky to find any.

Passing through town and found this place. Clean, friendly, and comfortable. And if you like Rt 66 you are right on it.

The stay at Arrive was great, room was clean, the aesthetics were very nice, and the downtown scene is walking distance.
Be sure to pay the parking fee if you want private gated parking on hotel property. Otherwise, be prepared to park in the public parking lot overnight, which has a separate fee of their own.

Stay here about 13 yrs ago when it was Hotel Blue. It has undergone a much needed update/remodel. Nice restaurant, pool area and fantastic staff. Would definitely recommend and probably staying again on the way home to AZ.

I thought the 25$ valet was very reasonable and enjoyed having my car parked for me in a closed lot. Check in was easy and the staff were all kind. Had a delicious dinner and cocktail downstairs. It wasnt pool weather but id love to come back when it is!
