The little six room Chelsea Motor Inn is located at 325 E. Layton (Route
66). and is next to an 1890 home. Trudy & Frank Jugler reopened the
Motor Inn in 2006.
The Chelsea Motor Inn sign is on a derrick style tower that pays homage
to Chelsea's oil drilling heritage.
The small "Chelsea" sign just before the motel proclaims
Chelsea to be the home of the first oil well in Oklahoma.

About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
Did
You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane
road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned
lanes are still there.
