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.

I have never been to a motel like that. The reception was so rude and she wasn't helpful at all. The computer was broken when we got there and we left there without checking and the funny part was that it wasn't refundable.

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.

Not good

Very smelly room, did insects in the room. A lot of noise from the truck stop, plus the necessity of checking into the room at 8:00 stop with a lot of customers doing their transactions. Terrible pillows mangy old towels. Seriously do not recommend this place.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
It was a very odd feeling -- as though no one every stayed there. The linens, room, and bathroom were clean, yet still an eerie feeling as though discarded. Mine was the only car in the lot and I was informed at check in (which occurs at/by the gas station cashier) that there were no other rooms available. Perhaps the rooms are only cleaned once all have been used. There is no WiFi and very limited TV. Overall, not the worst place to stay if you need the location. However, I recommend driving 25 minutes into Pocatello.

This was horrible! No Wifi or TV as advertised...refrigerator was filled with old food from who knows when. Clerk couldnt even check us in, no acess to a manager or anyone to help. We were supposed to stay 2 nights and canceled booking! Scary location and other guests were as unhappy as we were! Remove them from your app !

I was unaware that there was a check in time and I arrived after closing. I begged the closing clerk to allow me to get into my room, but he was very unpleasant about my late arrival, which was absolutely unintentional. Toilet did not work, and when I asked for a discount I was told "can't do that"

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room is one of 10 isolated from the gas station check in. The stairway is outdoors rusted steep with screws sticking out no rain gutters rain soaks you when using the stairs. Extreme lighting is in place makes it hard to sleep. TV turns on but no programming the Free internet does not reach the rooms from the gas station location. No pillow cases, bathroom was dirty as was the carpeting. Granted it’s old with only a privacy lock on the door. But for $90 a night it would have been nice to have hot water. But nothing else around limited truck stop accommodations when there is nothing else to chose from.

Wild hillbillies brandishing weapons = management

It's not much from the outside. The rooms are in desperate need of updating. You only get 4 channels on the satellite. We were horrified to watch the guy/manager with the gun berating a homeless man on a bicycle just trying to sleep in the parking lot. (As the husband says always avoid idiots open carrying with velcro holsters) It was disgusting watching him and his wife act like a maniacs, threatening, berate, abuse and menacing someone with a gun, merely because he was sleeping in the parking lot of the travel center next door. Cops were called. My question is, when is it not been okay to sleep in a travel center parking lot? Don't stay here. These people's behavior is gross.
