This old fashioned motel has 2 buildings. The main building, and another building on the other side of the highway. We arrived after their main office closed at 9pm. Their staff did not bother to tell us that our room was not on the same site as their main building. Had we not gone to the gas station next door to the 2nd building, and seen a sign saying "office across the street", we never would have found our room. To make matters worse, they don't answer their phone after 9pm, and you can't leave a message. They also leave your key on a lock box on your door. We discovered that all of the lock boxes have the same code.

This is a property from another era. The size and HVAC were not current standards but still great for what I wanted. It is a relatively safe location and I didn't notice the highway noise just outside. My only potential issue was the door locks/security framing were quite antiquated and I felt compelled to take my valuables with me. I stayed three days without any issues however.

First off, the property was clean and in good repair. I got a clean bed and shower for the night. Don't expect anything fancy. While we were there, I'd say it was mostly aimed at CDT hikers and construction workers. Perfectly safe, but no frills.

Property was old and rundown. Best food option was at the gas station and the coffee cart up the road. Room seemed clean (bathroom sketchy/ wear shower shoes!) bed comfortable. We called it the “Bates” motel. ‘nuff said. Only lodging in town and we were glad to have a place to stay.

In a small town with few options, Frontier Motel provided my family with a safe, comfortable spot to spend the night. The motel was clean and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom did have a musty smell, but otherwise no problems. While the room could use an update, it had pretty much anything we needed: microwave, TV, refrigerator. No hairdryer, but I'm guessing we could have gotten one from the office. I also very much liked the big tree outside our room, which had a table and chairs under it. Very pleasant. Staff was professional and helpful.
