I had a wonderful experience staying at the Sacajawea Inn. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and taken care of. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, making my stay relaxing and enjoyable.

I especially want to recognize Rachelle for her outstanding customer service. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of and was incredibly friendly, professional, and helpful throughout my stay. It’s rare to find someone who genuinely cares about their guests the way she does, and her kindness made a lasting impression.

Check in was great. There were lots of people checking in at the same time, with only one person to do all of the check ins. I didn’t catch her name, but she was very efficient, and welcoming.

Worst hotel I've been in, not much choice in Salmon, ID i guess
Bathroom was old and shower was so small that it was difficult 😩 to keep my hair dry.
No bath soap in container, just old and property not taken care of.

A very poor place to stay I would not ever do it again. Especially for the price. The doors all drag on the flooring, you can't even open them. The rooms are not clean and are very old and worn out.

Bare room - bed, toilet and sink. That's it! No place to put suitcase. Nowhere to hand clothes. Coffee maker with no coffee or cups of any kind. Zero hand soap AND no soap in shower to wash hands.
Staff gave me crap at check-in because I was a whole 3 minutes early on arrival.
Salmon is a nice little town but stay somewhere else

All week my wife and I had been staying at Expedia motels for about $120/night and found them all very nice and I left nice reviews. However, the Sacajawea Inn was horrible in comparison. We paid $166 for one night in cabin #14. The host initially had reserved #11 for us but told me that there was a hole in the sink that may give us problems so would put us in #14 if we thought it better. Then she got in her car and left because it was 6PM and told us the key was in the door. We walked in and looked around and noted the floor was dirty but due to no entry rug and an outdoor worn out mat to wipe your feet as it had been raining. The refrigerator was not turned on, so I turned it on and put our refreshments and fruit in it only to find the next morning that the refrigerator did not work. There was a coffee maker on the counter, but no coffee or condiments. The room had two full sized beds and we slept in one which was comfortable. Although my wife refused to use the bathtub shower because of the tub's condition, I used the shower and found it OK except the tub didn't drain! The towels were mismatched, but were clean. There was no bar soap for the bathroom sink. There were no cups of any kind for which to take our nightly medicine with. The heater did work OK! There was no continental breakfast. The office was closed from 6PM until 9AM, so I was not able to discuss the shortcomings with the host. We were very disappointed in this motel.

Worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in. No body wash liquid in the dispenser, no bars of soap, toilet seat so loose it’s almost falling off, drain in the bathroom sink plugged and the TV apparently requires you to use your own internet, no regular programming. The bed mattress was horrible and is only about 18” above the floor. Still using metal keys for entry, no electronic locks, no security. The room had a bed, a small table & 1 chair. No amenities like other hotels, not even a box of Kleenex. DO YOURSELF A HUGH FAVOR AND DON’T WASTE MONEY ON THIS DUMP.

The shower was not great, it took a very long time to heat up and the water pressure was a slow trickle. The door lock was super difficult to use both inside and outside. The bed had a slope toward the middle. Overall it was an ok stay, it worked for the location. Not worth the $200 per night though.

Room (bathroom in particular) wasn’t very clean. Staff is off sight and only available by phone, but was responsive in a pinch. Bed was squishy and low to the floor but comfortable. Out front of the office looks lowkey trashy with random chairs and grill. Overall - it was ok for limited stay.

Horrible experience! No personal contact, left key in door for check in, no service, had to ask twice & go & get fresh towels while staff played on her phone. A muddy mess for drive thru with no service for mud covered floors due to this. No outlets by bed nor in bathroom. Mold in shower. Pay extra and get a real motel!

This stay was very disappointing. The room was lacking in amenities. There was one stained towel and two coffee pods for two people for two nights. The bathroom was in very rough shape. There was quite the dust bunny collection as well as some trash under the bed. The door had broad daylight coming in all around it which made for a very cold experience considering the weather was down in the single digits. The thermostat on the heater must have been faulty because it would not shut off when it reached the set temperature, so I had to keep getting up throughout the night to turn the thing off and on. I arrived at 6:30pm on Friday, and no one was available in the office. I didn't actually see any staff the whole weekend except for a cleaner who had her little daughter running around the place.

There was a layer of dust under the bed that was years old and the sign outside had blinking lights that shown through the blinds that were annoying but the worse part was the shower. Mold and mildew. I wouldn’t step foot in that shower it was so gross.

Looking for a cheap place with a hot shower for the night.
Over all the hotel has been remodeled and is much improved, but the shower was poorly installed and leaks between panes. Using the unbleached dirty white towels to mop up the mess. The rooms set up with a krupp style coffee pot, but no coffee pucks. Went to the desk to ask for more. They don' open until 9AM and the message on the window says they do not keep out of office hours.
The heater came on excessively throughout the night- the fan rattled and the temp gauge is off, running over the programed value making it too hot then too cold.
Dog friendly was a bonus.
The bed was comfy.
Lots of TV channels and could watch the playoff games without logging into our personal accounts.
Parking outside your room is also much appreciated.
For the value, we would retur, BUT I will bring my own towels and coffee.

Looking at the previous reviews and website information about Salmon, Id., this property got our attention, so we booked 3 nights. Property and management was not what the previous reviews had mentioned. Upon arrival, I was very much looking forward to meeting Rachel but never did during our stay. Although, Rachel was not around, the staff were friendly. We were also anticipating for an outdoorsy environment, like trees, trails, creeks, and fire pit, as stated and/on property's website, but never happened. Didn't feel safe and the fire pit didn't look usable. Our king size bed unit was small. The website describes plenty of room and the pictures sure looked like a bigger room. Bathroom was even smaller and the floor in front of the shower was rotted. Fan was not working. Lots of bugs including big spiders, flies, and more. Tried getting rid but was impossible.
