Big spacious clean room, microwave, fridge, nice beds and linens. Awesome customer service. Free Grab and go bag in morning Breakfast had burrito, apple and OJ. Took away one star for no key to use at fitness —anytime fitness and pool area needs work. Clientele was slightly sketchy- not their fault. Basic motel did the job and I was safe and comfortable for most part.

The place was very clean. The pool is a little on the small side but the kids had fun. There was no hot water when I went to take a shower this morning. Come to find out they said the boiler had gone out in our building. I would have given it more stars if we had the hot water needed to take a shower.

Family owned, Friendly staff, and clean rooms for a great price. I booked a 2 bed room for my father who was vacationing the surrounding area. He was happy with the room and the price. I called to confirm his reservation and requested 1st floor and they were able to accommodate. If dad is happy, I'm happy. Although I did not stay here, I'm ratings to support for all of our family owned/small business owners and to show my appreciation. Thank you for accommodating my dad.

This place has 4 star reviews in almost every online booking I have checked.. we were exited to arrive around 10 pm to have a hot shower and relax for the night .. since we spend our day in Yellowstone and we wanted to start heading home (CA). The breakfast is not offered due to closed restaurants (Covid) yes this is June 2021 review! But the reason I give 2 stars is that there was no hot water to shower. We are i. Room 283! 10 pm and no hot water. That's rule n1 right ?? Hot water and a good mattress.. Husband had a cold shower and I had a semi luke warm after letting run 20 mins plus and

We had an absolutely wonderful stay. There rooms were super clean. Beds were very comfortable, sheets and everything else about the room clean. Did I mention how clean everything was? Super helpful staff that helped with printouts and packet free breakfast. The rooms had many outlets to charge whatever we needed. They were wonderfully pet friendly. We found that they stocked their rooms with a surplus of toiletries which came in handy. Thanks motel West we really appreciate you guys being there for us during this time. Stay safe

Very pleased! Clean and no frills room. 3 Night stay for a family reunion. Beds are firm and comfortable- no bed bugs. Pool and hot tub were relaxing after a long flight. Continental breakfast was filling. The pancake machine is great. Motel West offers complimentary passes to local gym. Housekeeping was quick and thorough. The toiletries smell nice and I appreciated the disposable makeup remover cloths. We felt safe. All the staff we encountered spoke English and were pleasant. Good location to everything we needed. Our first choice when visiting Idaho.

Understated former apartment complex turned into mid-range priced motel. They have a decent breakfast in the morning, cookies at the front desk in the afternoon and evening, and friendly staff to complement the clean room and okay wifi. It's a solid 2 hours from Grand Tetons via winding 2 lane roads, so not a good option for visiting there for the day, but good to stop after visiting the Tetons on your way to other places.

I have not stayed in many motels, but my stay at the Motel West will surely be memorable. Booking, with ease and discounted on hotels.com. The check-in, free cookies! The bed, cozy. The eco-friendly toiletries, revitalizing. The lighting in the rooms, nostalgic. The pool/hot tub, relaxing. The other motel stayers, sketchyish. The free breakfast, filling. Check out the Bee's Knees for lunch/dinner. Just 5 minutes away!

As far as MOTELS go, this one is 5 stars. What I think that some of the reviewers fail to keep in mind is that it is STILL a MOTEL. So of course it's probably not going to be the most updated, beautiful and comfortable place you've ever stayed. That's the POINT.
My boyfriend and I stayed here on the drive from Yosemite to Yellowstone. Would TOTALLY recommend this as a place to stay if you too are heading west to east- it was probably about a two hour drive to the park in the morning. Super easy.
Check in was smooth (grab a free cookie!) and we got a great price -$60. This was about

Wow what an experience that will never happen again. Paid $95 a nite. Moved to three different rooms because their wifi was crap. Multiple others complained. When I went into the office the next day after all this the the manager told me there was a note stating how rude I was. This is after I hugged the night shift gal at 430 this morning thanking her.
I'm a local, can't imagine how out of staters get treated.
The manager had no apology, she told me she was going to allow me to stay another night but I was not really welcome. Demanded my money back gave her a few choice words. She

They have nonsmoking rooms and cheaper smoking rooms here. This review is for the latter.
You'll get a much cheaper rate for the smoking room but believe me, you get what you paid for. The smell of smoke is overwhelming and the carpet is iffy in its cleanliness. There's also the smell of mildew on the towels and sheets. My wife also felt itchy and had a mild rash after sleeping on the beds. The next day when we stayed in a different hotel with a nonsmoking room, her shirt still smelled of the smoke.
I often don't mind staying in lower quality motels as long as they're cheap
