Clean rooms softest beds I slept in all week as I travel for work definitely recommend to give it a shot the family who runs it was so helpful and kind
The rooms are very outdated. The towels and sheets were stained and dingy. Not sure if the bath mat towel was even washed! The only good thing about the room was that he air conditioner.
The bedsheets and bath towels were visibly dirty. The restroom and shower were unclean. So much so, we couldn't even take a shower. Doors didn't shut probably. And the deadbolt wouldn't lock.worst motel/hotel I've ever stayed in.
This is a gem find right in Wartburg. Shopping to do some research at Frozen Head State Park. The staff was very helpful and polite and was a pleasant overnight stay.
Check-in was difficult, due to the night shift receptionist not speaking good english, but thanks to a phone call to manager (made by said receptionist), all was sorted.
Upon arrival we walked into our room and flipped on the lights. Immediately a slew of cockroaches scattered. There were even cockroaches throughout the bedding! We left and lost our money due to their "no refund" policy. No amount of money could have convinced us to stay. DO NOT STAY HERE unless you want to come home with a suitcase full of cockroaches!
The name Scenic River Motel is quite misleading. This property is not maintained in a manner that is up to commercial standards. I arrived to check in at 6 PM with the intent to stay out late at the Obed Wild and Scenic River to star gaze. The front desk did not answer the doorbell. A motel unit (under age) resident came out of his room and gave me instructions how to enter the motel office. The lady in attendance was unable to communicate in English but she did give me key card to my room.
Eventually, an attendant who did speak English knocked on my door. He instructed me to pay with my credit card (I assumed that I had already pre-paid via Expedia).
The grounds surrounding this motel most unfortunately looked shabby, with old mattresses left outside leaking against the front side of the motel and some discarded material from interior of one room laying on the front yard lawn. I pointed this out to the attendant who took my credit card (and who I assume was the manager).
I’m surprised local authorities have not inspected this place. This is the town of Wartburg’s only motel. It should be required to be properly maintained. Its exterior appearance should be brought up to standard.
The room was basic and clean. The air conditioner was in functioning order. The stopper in the wash basin sink did not close.
