Price was super. Room was very plain, but it was clean, and had a good TV, AC, and fridge. The walls were stark white, not the greatest color. Would stay there again.

Listen, this is a 65 dollar a night motel. If you want all the perks by all means go stay at a 200 dollar a night motel. It was clean, the frig, microwave, TV, AC, heat, coffee maker, ice maker , shower and all the lights worked. And most of all the hot tub was great. I stay here every year for a week in April. Go stay.

Room was clean and had everything we needed. Although the nights were cold we stayed nice and warm in our room. Walls are pretty thin you could hear the neighbor talking on the phone and the person on the other end talking back. The last night we were there the neighbor on the other side had their TV on the whole night. Other than that I enjoyed the stay here and have stayed here a few times in the past.

I have stayed at the Circle R during ski season on 2 or 3 occasions now. Their check-in process is efficient, and their rooms are economical, and everything is clean and well maintained. I have reservations to return again next month!
