My only concern was parking that is very limited. They ran out of parking so when I arrived at night, we called the front desk and they instructed us to park at the church right there at the motel. This did work out.

Charming hotel in Downtown Dells

Clean and comfortable hotel right in the heart of downtown Dells. Beds were comfortable, and the pool was amazing! Loved being able to walk to all the shops and restaurants. The hotel staff were also very friendly. We will definitely be back next summer!

It was a summer weekend stay. So prices were up, I am afraid. Our room was very tiny, old and sad. The shower head was missing and water faucet of the shower did not move. So we did not take a shower. For the money we paid, it was just a place to sleep on a creaky bed and not worth the money.

It was about as average as it gets. Rooms are old but well-maintained. Only staff I had contact with was very polite & personable. No tub, but the stand-up shower was spotless. Good inexpensive place to stay but not luxury accommodation.

I always stay here when we visit in the summer. This was my first time visiting in the winter. There was one other party here besides me so it was very quiet (even being right next to the office) My only concern, it was REALLY warm in that room and I had no idea how to turn it down? But I`d rather be warm in the winter!!

My husband and I joined a last minute family trip to the Dells and it was a fair price for the location and cleanliness. It is definitely outdated and the AC would stay on just for a couple of hours and then we had to switch it to fan mode or else it would have been too warm in there. It was nice to be so close to the strip and a lot of attractions. Overall, it was a nice stay!

Very clean!

We just had a quick stay. We wanted an outside pool and this hotel had good reviews. Reviews were right in. The room and hotel was very clean just a bit outdated. The staff were very helpful as well. The room was overpriced but the Dells in the summer is expensive and busy. Overall happy with our stay. It’s also walkable to a lot of things to do and places to eat.

The rooms are very simple and a bit small, but everything was very clean and the location is amazing if you want to walk the Broadway strip in the evening without worrying about driving. This was our first time staying in the downtown area instead of going with a larger resort. We were amazed at how much more relaxing the experience was. Will definitely return again.

NEXT TO DOWNTOWN ENTERTAINMENT!

Small hotel right next to downtown with lots of bars, live music, shopping, and restaurants! We love to walk downtown at night and enjoy all the entertainment. Very clean room and pool! It is a mom and pop motel for less than $100 a night! We will go back—it was all we needed! CLEAN!
