We decided to stay here it was a little cheaper than motel 6. When you first walk in the Door there is a smell. But the check in was smooth fast. Staff was friendly and informed us of hot cookies at night. went up to the room on the second floor with a queen bed and non-smoking room. It was... More

Absolutely the worst hotel I've ever stayed in!! First of all we asked for non-smoking but the room smelled like it had been smoked in. In fact the whole hotel smelled like smoke. They put us in room 216 which was decent aside from smelling like smoke. We had gone to eat and came back around 10 that evening. Well... More

As previously mentioned, you get what you pay for. This place is located directly across the street from the University of Idaho, which is lovely. The flowers were in bloom, the grass was green, and it was conveniently located to anything you would want to do in Pocatello. Every staff member we encountered were very nice and helpful, especially Berta.... More

This place was pretty good! I didn't expect much as the price is so cheap, but it was a great stay. Was passing through on my way from Vegas back to Canada and found this place. The price is a good indication of the age and quality of the rooms, but they are very clean. The bed was comfortable, and... More

Passing through for a funeral, we needed cheap sleep on short notice. If this place was more expensive, dirty or had a crappy breakfast, I would have rated it "poor." Location: Not far from freeway. Easy to find. Across street from Idaho State U. Several restaurants and grocery store within a few blocks. Parking: Small building, so parking is close... More

I'm not sure what room the people who left good reviews for this hotel stayed in, but mine was awful. Filthy carpet, towels that smelled like smoke, super uncomfortable and old beds. It was an awful night! Then in the morning, the breakfast room had terrible lighting - I couldn't see what I was eating. Do not stay here!

This has got to be one of the dirtiest motels I have ever stayed in. We arived about 11PM and it took at least 45 minutes to check in. The first room they gave us the heater/AC made so much noise that you could not talk over it. They then gave us 2 single rooms, we had to split our... More

I stayed at this property in September, '10 and found it quite acceptable. It was clean, a little old, comfortable, and everything worked. It's a roadway so it's not expected to be a higher class motel. I used Choice Privilege points for the room. When I do so, am not satisfied and consider it a waste of my points I... More

Very old property and horribly dated, walls and carpets were stained and many things in need of repair. Bed was the worst we have ever stayed on, springs were popping and could be felt thru pad and bedding. Front entrance to main hallway was unlocked with no monitoring and was out of site of front desk, garbage strewn in back.... More
