The rooms were pretty filthy, getting a room key was problematic as you go to the bar and depending on how the wait staff feels. Ended up finding a nice airbnb and left the room a few days early eating the cost of the room.

Hassle to check in and could not get the TV to work.

2/10 Poor

I didn’t stay there. Showed up a little bit early and no one was there or answered phone. The place looked abandoned and a for sale sign out front. It was New Year’s Day though. Expedia tried putting up in a nearby hotel with broken out windows and a junk car in parking lot. No thanks. Kept driving to Stanley.

Shower was either scalding hot or ice cold! Made a reservation for a room with two dbl beds. Paid for it. On arrival was told none were available. My reservation confirmation said otherwise. We were able to compromise and stayed in separate rooms. You need to visit your properties!

I really can't leave any kind of review being i traveled 500 miles and missed their 10:00 check in. I had to find lodging elsewhere.
Robert, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was a Friday night with lots of local events, music, a busy bar, and friendly people. However, the motel room needed attention. No wifi, the TV did not work, the light over the bed was burned out, and the sink dirty. The hotel manager was overwhelmed running the bar, and we didn't complain or worry too much. But it wasn't a well maintained facility.

10/10 Exceptional

Older motel but the bed was comfortable the water was hot the pressure was great. Chris at check-in was very friendly. TV didn’t work properly but Chris tried to fix it. It was late so it ended up being ok to not have television. We appreciate the pet friendly aspect. The bar/restaurant was lovely. The remodel is beautiful.

6/10 Good

The shower curtain was filthy. The sink had hair in it. The corner of the bathroom has a cobweb and a spider in it. The air conditioner worked great!!! It was nice to be able to sit outside and take the table and chairs out. The new restaurant was nice. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

the 2 women in the next room fought inside and outside the door till 2 am in morning. I found garbage extra underneath my motorcycle that had spilled out of their truck parked next to it. didn't get much sleep

8/10 Very good

Challis, ID doesn't have many choices when it comes to hotels/motels.The Roadhouse Inn has rooms on the same level as other local properties. I wanted to love it...but i dont. The sheets need to be updated; same for the towels and pillows. Id bring my own and sleep in my own sleeping bag. With that said. The staff is amaizing. They wanted to be sure we were comfortable. BIg smiles and very accomodating.

We were awaking by 2 people shouting and slamming doors from midnight and went on until after 330 am right next door to us. I got up to ask them to please be considerate, one if them told me the other was drunk and would be leaving. After more shouting abd slamming around they finally shut up. In the morning i observed them getting in a commercial vehicle. The facility is nice and clean but having no one to taje care of an all night disturbance was a little rough

I didnt like that there was someone in my room after i already checked in. Went fishing came back and there was a guy sitting on the bed. Apparently they gave him the wrong key.
Kathryn, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This was the worst place possible. The bed springs were old and dirty and broken. The mattress was so soft there was absolutely no support. I was supposed to stay two nights but didn’t get any sleep the first night so I left.
Denise, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Won’t stay there again.

Room smelled bad like cigarettes bathroom window was open and would not lock there weren’t any chairs in the room could hear the neighbors talking throughout the night couldn’t watch tv because the hdmi cable was missing the lady at the front desk said it happens all the time.

rooms need updating linensvery worn, light bulbs burned out, maintenance is much needed. TV and WIFI not working no one would come and help to busy with bar in restaurant. I guess too short of help to cover bases. Promised to help after three calls be there in minute but never showed. We have stayed here three times over the years but will not be back. New remodel on bar and restaurant very nice.
CONSTANCE, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Dead bolt does not work to lock the door. We can feel the cold air coming through the door. It’s really run down with no smoke detector. A new restaurant associated and run with this motel next door but can’t up keep the part where people sleep?! Spider webs and bugs on floor thankfully no bed bugs seen yet I did look.
Jentrie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

This property is rebuilding its office and restaurant/bar after a fire. Apparently their phone was missing which caused me a bit of a snafu upon realizing in fine print that checkin was limited to 4-9 and I was 1 1/2 hours away eating. I was not able to raise them at the given phone number but Expedia eventually was and the bartender (makeshift converted room) stayed late at 10:15 to check me in (appreciated). This is a rustic older property recovering from calamity at an inexpensive price. Room was dated and worn, seemed to be grit (sand and ????) on the sheet under the bed spread, 6 dead moths on floor in bathroom but no bugs otherwise. Comfortable enough, except for firm tall foam pillows, for a quick night’s sleep. I would not stay again under current conditions, but they are a mom & pop place going through a mptough time.
