Amanda, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

First time ever using the automated service. It was pretty neat, but I like human interfacing as well lol All in all it was a pretty neat experience.

Small town hotel.

Evening was great
Robert, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The place was very average and literally had no one to talk to in person. Also our floor in the bathroom was always damp or even wet after taking a shower.
Troy, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

It is a very good property if you do not need amenities. If you are looking for a basic room only for a nights rest it was a good value.
Lonnie, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great place to stay! We were visiting a friend in the cute little town of benson and stayed one night.No front desk person but Easy instructions for check in and getting key. Only thing was the cleaning lady knocked on our door early in am to see if we had left yet. We were awake but if not I would have been super annoyed. I think they could use a better system than that for knowing when guests have checked out. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others.

This Is Our Go To Place In Benson

We enjoy staying at the Benson Motel because it’s clean and the staff is very responsive to our needs. The only negative is, if you are looking for breakfast, you have to go into town to seek the local options.
1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very Comfortable, Clean and Roomy Rooms

We like to stay here as it is close to family. The owners are very responsive to all text and email messages to answer questions or if I/we need anything.
5-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The room smelled so badly of urine that I could not stay in it. The hotel refused a refund.
Deborah, 1-night trip

Clean, newly remodeled, comfortable

Olena, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I was looking for a place to stay 1 night after hiking the beautiful State Parks in this area, and Expedia suggested this motel. It was perfect for my needs. The price is right, the room ample and clean, nice king size bed, water pressure in the shower amazing. I'll continue to explore this area after a good-night sleep.

Mary Ann, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great overnight stay!

Super comfortable bed and pillows. We slept well after the trains stopped whistling. Very spacious room for the two of us. Love the idea of how to check in to get the room key. Owners/managers very attentive to questions in texts. Thank you!
Jessica J, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Clean Motel. Responsive Staff.

The rooms are clean. When we ran out of facial tissue, the staff was very responsive to replace our box. I put a 4 star on eco-friendly as I didn’t see anything that promoted recycling.
3-night trip

4/10 Poor

Bathrooms way too small, uncomfortable, next time our techs will stay elsewhere if they have a job in this area again.
Christine, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I found that getting our room key was very unique to get them and that is was very cool
