Motel West

I've been staying at Motel West for years, so feel a loyalty to them; however, on the rare occasions when they were completely booked, I was forced to stay with other facilities in the area. Even when their rates were much higher than Motel West, I was always disappointed with one or two aspects of the other locations, and the ownership (Marriott, Best Western, Holiday Inn Express,) didn't seem to matter. Either their staff was unfriendly, the room was dirty, loud parties were going on in adjoining rooms, etc. Motel West has it's own business model and philosophy that works and has proven to be successful over a long period of time. When I travel to Idaho Falls, it's just a given that I will stay at Motel West! Even though it's an older facility, it's constantly updated and has all of the same features you'd expect at a motel that is far more expensive.

This was a very basic room; all we needed was a bed and a good night's sleep. Room was clean. Bed was comfortable but extremely bouncy if your partner moved so we ended up sleeping in separate beds to avoid the bounce. No breakfast served but we knew that and were fine with it. It was quiet.

The property was good value compared to most and in a clean, convenient location with many eating places nearby. Each room has a mini fridge and microwave, coffee, but no breakfast. The continuous run air conditioner kept the room cool even in very high temps. Beds & pillows were comfy. I liked that the maids didn’t start til 9:30 so weren’t talking and banging around when we were trying to sleep. We also We will definitely stay again when in the area.

Pleasant motel at a good price that allowed pets with a reasonable fee. Not fancy, but had all the things you need and more. Our room was clean, and the queen size bed was comfy. The room had a fridge and microwave. It was a real bonus to have an indoor pool and hot tub. We had an excellent breakfast at O’Brady’s diner, just a 5 minute walk from the motel. This is a great budget option in Idaho Falls, just a short drive to the historic downtown, and River Walk area. I would definitely recommend this motel.

The room is big, clean and comfortable, enough space for 2 persons. The beds are comfortable. Refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker inside the room. Free parking direct in front of our room. Easy check-in and check-out. Very good price compare to other hotels in the same area. The area is quiet in the night, could sleep very well.
