It looks like this place has fallen on hard times or is just run down. The toilet seat wasn’t even really attached anymore. I tried tightening the nuts but any wings they had were long gone and it just left a toilet seat with ZERO tightening. Right above the toilet where the lights are - the fixture that holds them in place was missing and you could see straight up past the ceiling. One of the lamps was broken. I switched out a working lightbulb and still nothing. The bed was pretty hard, but I know that is subjective. No fitted sheet. I do not like a flat sheet for the bottom sheer. They just don’t stay in place. The fan button that controls if the fan runs all the time or just when the AC kicks on was broken. Positives are - the AC cooled well. The room was tidy and smelled clean. All the staff we met were wonderful. It is easy walking distance to places to eat and shop and the little movie theater.

We pulled into this booking at around 10pm. When we pulled up I was easily able to find and open the lock box. Once we parked our vehicle we were welcomed by a group of people who I only assume live here permanently (a little kid ran up and eagerly asked if we wold be moving in too). The room was full of mold in the bathroom and the rest of the room was cleaned in a mediocre way. My kids were horrified and kept asking that we please find somewhere else to sleep. It was too late at night and we braved the night. There was trash everywhere and the view was of garbage cans. There was no one to talk to in the lobby as it was all torn apart and being painted. This place goes down as Mom's worst pick of our vacation.

I'm not sure if these other reviews are spams or what, but I'd stay clear if at all possible.

The motel is marketed as pet-friendly, but there are signs all over the property that no dogs are allowed. I assume they mean in the overgrown flower beds, but there is nowhere on the property for your pup to relieve themselves. Sort of a pain. Our room was very dirty. Dusted over cobwebs on the walls between the beds, mold in the bathroom, overall very dirty.

Understaffed (waited 5 minutes for someone to show up at reception), disorganized (gave us a room that had yet to be cleaned), and a little disingenuous (saud we didn't have to pay for the \"better\" room they put us in, which had the same amenities we had booked...). Floor was visibly dirty, but it was otherwise a comfortable stay.

The property is older and right next to the highway but that is the only bad thing. Room was spotless, they had rugs and towels for the dogs and a decent walking area around the corner.

The hotel was okay.
They have pet rooms, however, there is no place at the hotel to walk the dogs. They have signs on every dirt area saying keep dogs off. There isn't even a grassy area along the road to walk them.
So good place to stay without dogs, but not with dogs.

I stayed here based on reviews and it was a miserable fail. It's obvious that the reviews are fake. Yelling all night long from a family who obviously lives on the property. The room and bathroom are very dated and the bed was not comfortable.

Occupancy was low when I stayed (maybe 4 occupied rooms) They stuck me in a room that had the vending machines and an overflowing trash can right outside the window. My request to move to a quieter room was accommodated, but came with an upcharge of about $30! The garbage cans and dumpster were overflowing with trash with a run down RV in the middle of the parking lot. I did find the staff at the desk friendly and apologetic about my experience at check out.

I stay at Wild Rivers several times each year. While I realize it’s an older property, it’s a little run down. The rooms haven’t been updated in a long time. The furnishings are old and outdated and the beds/pillows are uncomfortable. Unfortunately, I was placed in room 132. What a horrible room!! The roadway noise is non-stop all night long. Due in part to old windows and no means of sound dampening. While I will possibly stay there again, I most certainly not stay in any room approximate to the roadway

No notification. No forewarning. No communication when they saw we obviouly had a cat sitting in the window.

Just a $200 fee when I left.

We arrived Wednesday afternoon checked in and went to our room! The office had an odor in it from the start. We put the sign on the door for Maid Service on Friday to hopefully get clean towels! We left around 8:00 in the morning and didn’t come back until after 4:00! As we were pulling in my husband said well the sign is still on the door. We went in and sure enough the pile of towels was still on the floor where we left them. Then later I had put on a pair of clean white socks to go somewhere and when we came back I took my shoes off. After walking around for about 10 mins in the room the bottom of my socks were black. There was something laying on the bathroom floor the entire time we were there. The TV remotes batteries had to get switched every 10 mins if you wanted to try and control the TV. Then got woken up at 4:00 Saturday morning from the people up above us. It was like they were jumping around up there. Not the way you want to be woken up on vacation. They will not get our business again if we ever go back to Brooking’s! They could benefit from sprucing up the older hotel then it might be worth the $131.00 a night. I paid less for a nicer room elsewhere in another city before we went here
