4/10 Poor

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The hotel clerk/manager was nice and very helpful. But here's the thing: Generally speaking, the higher the price, the better the room. I went with cheap. So I don't expect much for the low price I paid. The room was very old and very run down. It wasn't particularly clean. I wouldn't go anywhere near the bathtub, personally. But the sheets were clean, the towels were clean, and the bed was comfortable. If you just need a place to crash for the night , this is probably okay. If you want something more then a clean comfortable bed, you may want to look elsewhere.

The only thing good I can say about this motel is it was quite and the bed was ok comfortable wise other then that it was not worth the money I spent the room was dirty the bathtub we had to clean before we could use it none of the plug ins worked I had to hold the coffee pot plug just to make coffee after I had to clean it there was still a left over coffee pod in it the fridge did get cold well it got so cold it froze everything but was also dirty it took over an hour just to get checked in and the housekeeper brought back a paper and said she had just cleaned the room but when we went to check the room before the front desk would even give us the keys we had to go with him to check the room and the AC is under the bathroom sink so it didn't keep any part of the room cool other then under the sink in one of the two rooms we had we woke up to a few spider friends that didn't even offer to help pay lol but for real the worst place I ever stayed and will not be going back I'll go back to motel 6 before or sleep in a tent before I ever go back to this place and the guy at the front desk was more worried about us being quite because he had two rooms that people were living in and he didn't want them upset at him it's a motel not an apartment and the pool doesn't work and looks like it hasn't in awhile and out by the dumpster they have bbqs but you can't use them they are they people who are living there so yeah anyway if you ever find your self in nephi go somewhere else

Helpful and friendly staff!

Friendly & helpful staff! If you need something, just ask them! Everyone was really polite and quick to offer help. It was nice to be close to the strip but have a quiet place to recharge! We were there to tour around the national parks on motorcycles, so it was great to have a pool, cold drinks kitchen etc. to come back to. Easy access on and off the highways. We would stay here again.

We appreciated being able to get a room at the last minute when our other reservation which we had made through Expedia fell through. The Safari was old and quite run down. Loose flooring, curtains hanging weirdly, etc. We were too tired to be picky. The bed was really high, very difficult for a short person to get into. We were told to run the hot water for the shower fo1-2 minutes but it was 5 minutes before it got kind of hot. We won't stay there again.

The room appear to clean at first glance but I noticed under the bed filthy! I have a small dog and I was so worried about what she was getting into underneath the bed it freaked me out. If they would just clean under the beds it would be an okay place to stay.

It's a lower end motel but the owners/managers try real hard, they have always been super nice and professional with me. Rooms are clean and I've never had an issue with noisy patrons. I would stay there more often but it's in nephi.
