Does 66 go through Oatman?

I'm looking at Google maps, and I see Oatman-Topock Hwy (AZ 10), but no 66?

I have been to Kingman a few times, both on the way to Vegas and have actually stayed there when I was in town for work. They do a decent job with 66, and it has easy access to the I-40.

If you're on the I-40, a stop in Winslow, AZ is worthwhile too. At least long enough to hear Take it Easy once or twice
