The check-in was ideal, with the front desk staff quickly and efficiently getting my information, giving me my key, and letting me know about the area around the motel. This is an economy room with no frills, however everything a traveler needs is there, and it was clean and inviting

This is a nice little motel. I needed an inexpensive place to stay overnight while I was on my way to the Uinta Mountains. Nothing fancy, but the room was clean and for an older motel, it was modern and very acceptable. Check-in was easy and fast and the staff was helpful. I would stay here again.

Great value and nice enough to stay again

The basics were all good. The location was quiet and there was a popular food truck nearby. On the negative side, there were paint drips on the floor and fridge.

Excellent Value

The motel is very convenient and close to a few restaurants and the downtown area. Helper Beer (brewery and restaurant) is just a block away. The motel itself was clean but well worn. It is in the process of refurbishment as far as I can observe. The room had an electric fireplace, microwave, and refrigerator. For the price this is an excellent value. I would stay there again.

It was precisely what was advertised, and for the price, exactly what one should expect. It was not luxurious. The room was very clean, and the staff were very friendly.

Helper Stay

This charming motel is nestled just off the highway. It’s in remarkably good shape for an old property. The beds aren’t the greatest and my mattress seemed crooked. It’s pretty rustic in that the heat source is an industrial space heater with an electric fireplace for ambiance. If you need an inexpensive place to stay it’s great. Do bring earplugs unless you're used to being woken up by the sound of trains at 3 AM. The last sentence has zero reflection of the property, just a warning and to be clear, I would stay there again. It is super clean, could be a sweet little boutique motel with a few minor adjustments.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities

Cheap, but dismal.

Note the mixed reviews, which may have to do with exactly which room someone had and how much they appreciated the taco truck in the parking lot. My room was completely run down -- bedroom window fell out of the frame when I tried to open it, electrical outlet was loose, everything is worn, stained and dented. Dead insects all over the floor and windowsill. Check-in was slow and confused. Wifi worked and bed was OK. Didn't feel unsafe.
