JASON, 3-night family trip
Verified Hoteles.com guest review

10/10 Exceptional

Our room wasn't quite ready when we arrived so we checked out tge thrift store across the parking lot. Our room was clean and spacious with plenty of sleeping space for everyone. We brought our service dog in training and when ahe was off duty she made friends witg the resident dog. They were able to play off leash in the shared patio area. The BBQ grills were convenient along with all the outdoor seating. This motel had plenty of parking for our trailer and was off the road so it was very quiet. We also purchased some DoTerra items from the office which was great for our sore muscles. We will definitely stay here again!!

A family run motel. The rooms are well appointed. Thermopolis is a great place to explore the southern Big Horn basin.

8/10 Very Good

The person who checked us in we assume to be the owner. She was very welcoming. The room did have an odor…perhaps other guests had dirty/stinky shoes. But otherwise the room was clean, bed very comfy. We got the last room available so wonder if a room with just one large bed would have been better for us. We would definitely stay again!
