The rooms are clean and comfortable. Nothing fancy, but the rooms do have a small refrigerator and a microwave. Can't beat the price and Scott, the owner, is very friendly and helpful. The walls are thin, so don't be surprised when you hear your neighbors.

We stayed here one night, knowing we would be arriving later pm and leaving in the morning. I knew this would be a budget motel, but even just a couple of hundred dollars could do a lot for the room. We had a large room, so the space was nice, and we wanted to be able to have kitchen facilities... More

This Mom and Pop motel is the best at a great rate! Scott is friendly, and very knowledgeable of the area. He recommended places to eat and some awesome hikes. Clean, comfortable and best of all for us pet friendly at a great rate. We ended up staying many more days than we had planned. The rooms have all your... More

Stayed here after calling ahead to reserve with a coupon. Owner kept the light on and honored our price. We were beat after many hours on the road and welcomed the ease with which we settled in. Room clean and tidy - bath accessories just what we needed. Easy checkout and best of all -- NO PROBLEMS. Thanks, y'all.

If you are looking for a clean, affordable place to stay..This is the place! The staff was extremely friendly and the motel allows pets for a reasonable charge. The location was great, with easy access to restaurants and shops downtown. The outdoor pool was refreshing on a 100 degree day! We will definitely be back!

We have been staying at the motor lodge for 6+ years now and always have a great time as well as a wonderful stay at the lodge. Scott and the crew are always trying to help in any way they can. We have never had a bad stay. During one of our stays, one of us was injured and Scott... More

Stayed last 2 nights at Bell's. Still trying to recover from the shock of finding such a gem for such a fabulous price. The owner was very accomodating and pleasant to do business with. Housekeeping staff does an fantastic job, the rooms are older and rustic but spotless! We met one of the housekeepers outside the room one morning and... More

Returning from a week long trip to the Tetons & Yellowstone, we were fortunate to stumble on Bell's. The room was clean and included a microwave and fridge. The price was half of what we paid for rooms in Jackson & Cody that had neither. I plan to be back again and will use it as base for day trips... More

We made our reservations through the Spearfish CofC. and the offer was to spend two nights, get the third free. So for 5 nights, the total bill was only 260.00. When we checked in the Owner was right there to meet us, and check in was completely painless. He got us a coffee pot, and extra pillows. The next morning... More
