The room was NOT at all what is described in Expedia. Not two rooms at all. Two double beds in one room. No working light/fan in bathroom. Outdated peeled/cracked sinks/other. Need to update the description because it is HIGHLY incorrect.

The room stunk really bad. A employee (i believe the owner)came knocking on my door early the next morning telling me i need to pay when the money had already been taken off when i booked the place which i had to argue and prove that it had been payed. The heater in the room would not stop clicking loudly all night. I would never stay there again i would rather sleep in my vehicle

easy access to many things, we were on our motorcycle's so we wanted to walk to the restraints. The sign says free wifi and continental breakfast neither of which they have here.

We were switched from Ski to Central motel. Central needs a bit of exterior work but the room was good for the value. It was clean and suited our needs for our 2 night stay. Central location in town and everyone was very nice.

The check in guy did not speak English so he was very hard to understand. He did not have our reservation. He did still have a room available though thank goodness. The room was not clean we had to go track down a broom to sweep it and then we still did not walk around barefoot. It was a little scary and the room next to us had people coming and going all night knocking on the door!

When I came into the front office, I handed my reservation paper to the person, and he took a look at my reservation papers. He suggested I to call Expedia because he wanted to know how much the rate for the room. I am deaf, and I didn't have time to call Expedia. Based on my observations, I didn't see the personal computer and the credit card system at the front desk except for room reservation papers. I was so disappointed and frustrated. I walked out of the front office and left. However, I came to Great Falls from Missoula to attend the Montana Association of the Deaf 51st biennial conference for this weekend as the secretary of the statewide organization of the deaf. I explained my situation at Ski's Western Motel to these deaf registrants and some officers of Montana Association of the Deaf. Fortunately, one of the officers offered me to stay overnight at her house which was so sincere and kind enough to alleviate my anger and frustration toward the gentleman at the front office. I didn't pay any cash or hand my credit card to the gentleman. However I already made my online reservation via Expedia with my credit card before coming to Great Falls from Missoula, MT. After having some kind of calamitous experience at the motel, I made my own decision not to make any reservations at this motel ever again. I prefer to make reservations at either O'Haire Motor Inn in downtown Great Falls or Holiday Inn Great Falls where I have pretty good and positive experiences in my past.

I had a great experience at this motel. Chose it for price despite some dicey reviews, and of course, it's an old road motel. But I found the owner friendly, the room freshly cleaned--including machine-cleaned carpet--good bed, TV, everything I needed. Grateful for the hospitality, and I'll definitely stay again if I pass through the area. Note sole owner-operator is busy so sometimes away from office. Be prepared to call when you arrive. I did, and he appeared immediately, no problems.

Clean and comfortable room, but loud quests

The room was clean and the bed was new. The other motel guests were loud, up all night , in and out of their rooms. But the room was good. Could have been quieter.

The room was dirty. They lost our reservation. The owner was extremely rude to us when we got in. Their continental breakfast was a couple little pastries.. the worker had no clue where the cereal was kept.

Ewwww

When we got into the room, I had to use the bathroom. I noted there were chips on the seat, and thought nothing of it, until I stood up. The chips were gone, which meant they were on me! So, into the shower. The shower drained slow, so I looked in the drain. There was a hair ball in there worse than if I were washing my dog. So, I washed my butt, then got out.
The really bad part is I was next door to a hospital because I was having surgery in the morning and didn't want to travel a long way in the very early hours, and I was supposed to take two specific type of showers before arriving at the hospital. When I got to the hospital, they made me re-shower after I told them about the place. If we had not gotten there so late and I wasn't so broke from medical bills, I would have left.

The manager was very polite and kind.
Property is located in a very busy area so there was quite a bit of traffic noises late into the night.
