Great affordable property, just an fyi the reports of no TV are true and in an area with nothing but a gas station a working tv would have been nice….nothing fancy but that’s what you pay for… loved the cafe associated with the hotel

This place is like a hidden gem! The room was very spacious very updated and extremely clean. The restaurant and gas station are right there everyone's really friendly and I can keep an eye on all of my things in the trailer. Can't beat the price and like I said very updated large TV nice bathroom computer desk refrigerator microwave etc etc I highly recommend if you need a place to stay overnight on your long drive.

TERRIBLE.........STAY AWAY.....

Made the reservation, got to the property. the store that has the keys was closing. the night manager locked up with the motel key inside and could not get back in. I was not even able to get into the room. I had to go on down the road and try to find another motel. They have a phone with 4 options. 2 of those are always busy and the other 2 have voice mails that are always full. Terrible service and I am requesting a refund. Never even think about staying at this place

For those who might consider staying here, they have to do the check in at the Shell gas station near by. Alex was great and attentive. The rooms do not have Queen beds as advertised, but overall was fairly good.

the only problem we had was that flag west motel didn't get our payment for the room from and we had to take another thirty minutes out of our mini-vacation to secure a refund from you.

It was not 15mi to Lava Hotsprings. More like 45mi to Lava. Super scary with barely a functioning lock. Couldn't stay there, ended up having to pay for another hotel and uable to get a refund.

Dated and filthy. I would drive for another two hours rather than stay here again. This place should be shut down by the city. It is unsanitary and falling apart.
