Good value

We came for a hockey tournament in Winthrop. The motel was adequate for my teen daughter and myself. Walls were very thin and it is definitely a little dated. The managers were kind and accommodating. We would come again!

It was a comfortable stay in the room and the hot tub was a nice surprise, however the walls are thin, so the guests next door we’re a bit noisy, including a barking dog at times and snoring at night.

Overall, Idle A While is a convenient place for travelers to the Northen Cascade National Park area for hikings and other activities when they have a pet and no other hotels available in Wintrop, as it's just a 20 away on Hwy 20 in Twisp. We stayed here and upon checking in got a gift for our dog which was a pleasant surprise. The hotel owner's wife even made some muffins for breakfast for the guests. Recommended!

The owners are lovely and have clearly been making improvements. It is clean, nicely painted, large room, pretty good bed, fridge with bigger than most freezer & microwave. Fluffy towels. Keyless entry. Charging ports in bedside alarm clock and desk lamp. Magnetic housekeeping/do not disturb signs for door. Deer grazing on property. Right on the highway so easy access but there is traffic noise in the morning. Good rates. Hair dryers, the beat up furniture may be next on the list. Despite agreeing with their spending priorities, it is not 5 star yet.

1) We were given 2 addresses. I didn't know we had 2 addresses. I looked at one which was 505 N Hwy 20 Twisp. It caused much confusion and frustration. Finally, I found the 419 N Methow Valley Hwy Twisp which was the correct one. The 505 N Hwy 20 address needs to be eliminated. 2) The room was very run down with horribly run down furniture. You can get much better quality 2nd hand furniture to make the room appear nicer. 3) It was not worth the $177 for the room especially with no continental breakfast.

The photos and property descrption are so misleading that they are almost fraudulant! The "spa" is a shack with red wooden letters nailed to the door that say"spa". The hand drawn sign leaned in the dirt against the sign post in the front states"RV dump station coming soon" Good thing because yhe whole place looks like an RV dump station!!

Basic room had a smell like it was previously smoking room. One lonely beetle bug. The air conditioner needed a chair to operate because it was so high. Couch needs replacement. Otherwise it was ok for the price as it was only one night.
