“Very happy with my stay great customer service will stay here again on my next trip out there!”
Carlos, Expedia.com
“Thunderbird lodge is a great place to stay. Reminds me of 50's and 60's motor lodges. Very clean extremely friendly staff. Surprising amenities, like a Keurig, microwave and refrigerator in room. Can't complain, very reasonable price and will definitely stay there again if we need a room in Norman.”
