A great place to stop on the way to Grand Teton and Yellowstone. Very clean rooms, friendly staff, and convenient location. Perfect for a comfortable overnight stay.

Pleasant affordable accommodation in Kemmerer

Room spacious, comfortable and clean. Friendly check-in. We stayed there on Sunday night and it was difficult to find a restaurant open for dinner. Very convenient for Fossil Butte NM.
Brian, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Quiet and clean, a very pleasant stay for an older, lower priced motel.
Scott, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice place with friendly guests

I stayed here last year, and the service was very good. Same this year. No breakfast, but for the price this place is friendly, clean, and has a very good location.

All we needed

Room was clean and beds were comfy - all we really needed for a quick one-night stay as we were passing through the area. Staff was friendly. No complaints.

"When we got to the hotel, the front desk staff was in the middle of cleaning rooms, but she greeted us with a big smile and was more than happy to help us check in right away."
Daryl, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Small and old hotel that has been recently renovated. Wasn't perfect, but it was well stocked with soap, shampoo, clean towels, TP, etc. Beds were clean. Management was friendly. No breakfast at this motel, but we knew that at booking. Parking was adequate. For some reason hotels in Kemmerer are all rather expensive.
Jack, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good badic clean motel room. No frills which was fine. Could have used an ice machine.
Margaret, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff were nice. Room was clean. Bed was comfortable. No ice machine, so bring your own. Walls are paper thin. Our next door neighbor woke us up at 01:30 talking on the phone or to himself for about half an hour.
Hal, 1-night trip

Check pet friendly rules

Just passing through and booked a room last minute because it was a pet friendly place. Arrived to find out there are pet friendly rooms. Being a motel with 14 rooms, my room was not "pet friendly". Had to pay $50 shampoo fee. This was not clear on website.

Room 11 needs a new security lock

The room / bed / shower were great however the door lock was faulty and made sleeping a bit uncomfortable. We moved a chair in front of the door but didn’t feel like we could fully relax to sleep deeply. We checked in after hours and got our door code over the phone - we actually didn’t see any staff at all as we left early the next day. That process couldn’t have been any easier. Other than the security lock it was a great stay.

contemporary room design

With the standard fare of hotel room decor at other places, the contemporary design certainly stands out to give a fresh look. Plenty of space to spread out my stuff during the stay. Like many other places, the bathroom door would block some of the bathroom area, including the roll with the toilet
