Nasty bathroom and bedroom. No air conditioning the night we stayed at the Motel. The clerk was helpful providing 2 fans for the room so I was able to sleep a few hours before we departed at 7:00 am.

It’s clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. It’s not the newest property but nothing was damaged or missing. Nothing fancy, but certainly acceptable for spending the night. I’ve stayed in places claiming to be more than they are with mold in the bathrooms - didn’t see or smell any here.

This is a property from another era. The size and HVAC were not current standards but still great for what I wanted. It is a relatively safe location and I didn't notice the highway noise just outside. My only potential issue was the door locks/security framing were quite antiquated and I felt compelled to take my valuables with me. I stayed three days without any issues however.

You get what you pay for - there is a reason why it is low cost. Paper-thin walls so you could participate in the conversation in the next room. Friendly guy on front desk and comfortable bed. The adjoining restaurant closed at 6.30 pm on a Tuesday night but did a good takeaway.

In a small town with few options, Frontier Motel provided my family with a safe, comfortable spot to spend the night. The motel was clean and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom did have a musty smell, but otherwise no problems. While the room could use an update, it had pretty much anything we needed: microwave, TV, refrigerator. No hairdryer, but I'm guessing we could have gotten one from the office. I also very much liked the big tree outside our room, which had a table and chairs under it. Very pleasant. Staff was professional and helpful.
