Welcome surprise

Very clean, comfortable bed & the best breakfast!
Candance, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed at Ponderosa Motel two times on our trip; once on the way to our destination and again on our way back home. The stay was very nice. The breakfasts were great.

This is our second stay here. Just like our previous stay everything was clean and well done, the multiple bunk bed room was perfect for our larger family, and the breakfast is Awesome! Everyone was super friendly too!
Cassandra, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

No frills motel in a sleepy hamlet.

Breakfast was a tad less than adequate with weird looking scrambled eggs, tough overcooked sausage, under-baked biscuits, the gravy was good- but overall selections were narrow. Staff were helpful and congenial. Room was clean, but showing signs of wear. Definitely a no-frills place but adequate for my needs.
David, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good value for good comfort

Very comfortable room and bed. The only downside was the A/C unit, which had tiny buttons with all the labels worn off so it was hard to figure out how to turn it on and adjust it. Very reasonably priced room!
Robert, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice room, comfortable bed.
Steven, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very good price. Good breakfast
Nancy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

They have a lot of remodeling to do before I’d stay there again. The positive is their breakfast was decent.

Roxanne, 1-night trip

Perfectly good motel even though the exterior could use some paint and a revamp.

Wonderful place to stay and the all important beds were comfortable and a great breakfast
Tammy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This a fine place to stay if you are in the area. I liked the location and there were a lot of choices for breakfast.
Bryon, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

I will say the person was friendly enough upon check-in. The full breakfast was very good. I was supposed to stay two nights but I cancelled the second night. Dirty and old. I wasn't sure if I should feel safe or not, given the surroundings and the people outside arguing late at night. I would not recommend it.
The window sills. I didn't even take pics of the curtains and the showerhead coming apart from the wall.
