Super helpful staff and a great location in Norman! Would stay there again anytime. For an old 1980's hotel/motel place, this property is well maintained, clean, and equipped nicely. It so reminded me of when I was a kid and did road trips with my parents and stayed in Holiday Inn motels back then. Overall pleasantly impressed with the Thunderbird Lodge!

Clean room, plenty of parking and options for meals a nice walk away or a very quick drive. Mel at the office is absolutely top tier. She does calls ahead of time to ensure you’re all set and is an absolute delight to meet in person. She’s one of those people that just exudes positivity. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.
