Accommodating Staff But Very Run Down

The staff was very helpful and accommodating. The furnace/heat source in the room didn't work so they brought me a portable heater. I was afraid to use it for fear of starting an electrical fire. The room was VERY rundown. It seemed the other rooms that were occupied were all full time staff and residents.
The directions are rather interesting to operate the air conditioning.
The window was dirty, disgusting, and wouldn't open.
One section of the ceiling looked like it could tall down at any time.
Electrical setup.

Older motel but well maintained. Couple of small things I noticed like an outlet not working right which I mentioned at checkout and I am sure they attended to it. Would stay there again.

Great friendly hotel

Great older hotel. Everyone is nice here. The room was clean and had a comfortable bed. It is old so some of the things in the room didn’t work as well as new things would but that wasn’t a big issue for me. It was also nice and quiet except for the occasional semi that drive by. I slept well. I will stay here again, if I need a place in Thermopolis.

Good Luck!

I didn't get to stay here as the hotel management was never at this location. Sign on the door to the office read: "we are doing errands, please call" - only I never received a call back, rather a text at 11:40pm conveying an apology. Drove by the next two days only to see the same sign and 3 (three) cars in their parking lot.

It was an older motel, we like to park in front of our room door. It’s easier when you have to walk your dog. Real close to hot springs national park and the bath houses and dog park. We were there one night, but the room was very clean and comfortable. Would stay there again.

This is a 1940s motel. It is clean and comfortable but very dated. The front desk woman was very helpful. It had some unique features. The bathroom floor was very strange.

This a cute little 1940's motel that the owner has maintained very well. Does it show its age? Yes, but thats also what makes it unique. The rooms are clean and Gina (office) is very helpful.

Old and super outdated. Not much else in the area. Not worth the $115 we were charged for a night. Room was hot, fridge was not plugged in so it was useless. Very sketchy place, but we didn’t feel unsafe.

The staff is so extremely friendly, it is very reasonable as far as price. Extremely clean. It is like a older western style motel, but it definitely beats the other one down the street is way more clean and way more comfortable.
