An older motel that is comfortable if you are looking for just the basics. Bed was comfortable and room was overly clean. AC cooled the room adequately. Close but not within walking distance was numerous fast food places.

Better go elsewhere
Woke up with a bed bug on my leg. 2 days later my legs look like Swiss cheese.
This room is straight out of the 1960's with a pink bathroom sink, a bed like cardboard and a hidden switch to get the ac working. The room was nothing like this picture
Tried to stay here for Frontier Days because everything was booked. This goes straight up beyond a terrible experience. This is 40 dollar room at best. Dirty bathroom( hair on shower walls) sticky floors, hot as balls in there because the air conditioner was a filthy piece of junk, junk electric receptacles. I understand there is an event in town but to ever charge someone 250 a night for this complete dump is unspeakable and should be against the law ! The staff was the only good part and were kind to us and refunded our second night so we could move along. You’ve been warned …
The property is western themed. It’s a beautiful property. It is a bit dated but not in a bad way. The bathroom was my only complaint. It was so small. The tub was a two seater tub spacious. But the toilet was cramped in the corner. The staff was great.
The person working the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The location does not feel safe, and despite the ‘ no loitering’ signs, there was in fact loitering. There was clothing, bowls, and partially consumed bottle outside of our room door implying that nook is where someone was sleeping. The window in the room was opened when we arrived and the room smelled of smoke and the floor was dirty.
The staff was very understanding when we declined to stay and we were issued a refund.
It's an old hotel from the 50's. It was cute and comfortable for the price. I did love the old wooden thick doors they were great.
Would i stay there again, yes but not for extended stay as cute as itnwas and the staff was amazing! They get 2 thumbs up
