Liked: Staff & service, amenities
We stayed here some years ago and I remembered it as dated but pleasant and clean. This time it was distinctly grubby. When we checked into our room the bed was unmade, obviously not serviced. Called the front desk and was immediately’upgraded’ to a nearby room with king bed. The room was so dark we couldn’t see to unpack so I tried to open the slats on the wooden window blind. The whole blind crashed to the floor. The table in the room had a broken pedestal, wobbled so badly it was unusable. The carpet was dirty and stained and there was visible grunge in the corners. With all that though the staff was very friendly and the price was good.

Super clean! Very nice check-in experience, ample soap, shampoo & conditioner. Very comfortable beds…slept like a baby for the whole three nights. Loved the option of A/C or heat and they worked great and weren’t too loud. Close to virtually all of Challis extremely friendly and loved the Restaurant! Thank you for a wonderful stay…will definitely be back!

Nice place to stay in for a short trip into the nature. It is a motel so as expected, it’s a wood house with single floor. You can tell it is old but well maintained. Room is large with most stuff you need and stuffs are very friendly.

Our 3 yr. Old grandson was traveling with us and we needed to get out and stop. The motel was conveniently located along our route and has a restaurant on the property, so it met our needs for the night- late arrival, early departure and the ability to get food quickly. It’s also pet friendly and we travel with our dog, so that’s a plus. It’s an older property, pretty rough, carpet needs replaced, microwave door was broken, but we were finally able to get it to work. The beds and sheets were clean, so we were fine to sleep and that was our main objective.
