Yazmin, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

very clean, good price
Anthony, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The stay was alright for the cost of the facility. I only stayed one night. You would want to bring your own soap. I would have liked curtains on the windows as it was very bright with the blinds. Within walking distance of Main Street.
Colette, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Easy, only inconvenience was having to travel to a separate motel to check in
Alyssa, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The hotel is old, but it was a place to sleep and have a shower.
Barbara, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

This was a very gracious host who upgraded us to the locally own facility. We enjoyed the stay.
Shelly, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Clean. Just outdated, old bathroom appliances
Cathleen, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Was clean and cute! Walking distance to a lot of places on the south side of town. Easy and exactly what we needed. Internet/streaming was a bit slow, but that was minor.
Kylie, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

The blinds were broken so people outside could see inside the room.
Ari, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Loved the cleanliness and attractive remodel and bright colors.
millie, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Great seamless check in process! However, the rest was history as we were greeted to beds with brown color stained sheets, a non functioning air conditioning unit, and dirty mugs that were not usable.
Kurt, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The room was well equipped. Nice blue interior.
patricia, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

There's no shampoo and lotion when we check in. The AC is very noisy. There's bad smell in the room.
DONGYUAN, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Small n charming
Ah Meng, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

I was there for only 45m. We got in late, had to drive to a different location to pick up my keys. When I went in and took a shower and went to go to the bathroom, the toilet did not fully flush. I had to flush a few times for just pee
Rosemarie, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Bishop Inn 1/5 Terrible I made a reservation for this facility the day before. When I arrived on the day, there was one employee there who told me, "It's not open at the moment. It's scheduled to reopen in August." I told them I had made a reservation, but they said it had been refunded, so as long as it wasn't open there was nothing I could do so I booked another facility. The accommodation fee was deducted from my credit card, what a careless company Expedia is. Selling a facility that isn't open and then conducting a survey on top of that. Please refund my money immediately.
Kazushige, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Walking into the room, had a strong smell of mold. The shower was moldy, and the smell permeated the whole room. There were bugs on the walls. There was a coffee maker with creamer, etc. but no coffee. The soap/shampoo dispensers in the shower were broken. The office is never open so you need to go to another motel to check in and get your key. On the plus side, the bed was not too uncomfortable and the room seemed somewhat clean other than the bugs and mold. The window A/C unit worked okay.
Alex, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Well I booked two beds,this what I got. They were booked already and didn't understand why Expedia Booked a room they didn't have.
Teresa, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The staff was so kind and helpful and it’s walkable to Rusty’s Saloon and other dining and shops. The major negative was how dirty and run down the room was. It was so uncomfortable unfortunately.
April, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

I did not stay. The place needs a lot of work. Windows are not secure. There was no one from the motel on the premises either. I was also the only person on the premises at 7:30pm. I got another room close by. I went to the Tree Motel to return the keys. The manager said she would contact Expedia about refunding the fee.
Norman, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Older motel but well maintained and reasonable price.
