You get what you pay for

Not one of the better cheap motels that I've stayed in for the basics..... Had to go ask for new clean towels..... empty the trash..... don't mind not having new sheets on the bed every night after returning from work as I only wash my sheets at home weekly. The new toilet sounds like a jet engine and will wake the dead when flushed. Not to mention the fact that at minimum 1/3 of the rooms are occupied by permanent residences. The pool is filled in with rock, and surrounded by the removed toilets and other construction materials. The cooling and heating system is old and hard to manage.

Attention to details lacking and pest problem

Many times I tend to stay in low cost hotels and know what I'm paying for. Therefore, I usually suck it up when it comes to thin walls and noisy talking outside your front door (which was the case here as well). I also take it in stride when the place is a little run down, needs updating or has some dirty/disheveled furniture or cabinetry (which also were the case here). However, roaches and semen stains are completely unacceptable. Yes, I'm serious and have uploaded pics to show this. Unfortunately, I did not notice these things until the following morning. When I checked in, I was exhausted and didn't notice anything with the minimal lighting available and crawled into bed. The next morning, after turning on all the lights and sorting my things out on the bed, I noticed the semen stains on the outer bedspread. And it wasn't just one spot---there were three areas of the bedspread with these telltale signs. In addition, as I went about showering and getting ready---I saw no less than 3 roaches in different parts of the room. This includes a roach crawling on my hand towel laid near my toothbrush on the vanity. In addition, I even heard some type of animal scurrying above the ceiling several times. Maybe housekeeping was in a hurry or extra tired the day they made up my room. It happens. In any event, pests are unacceptable and if there were roaches in my room, you can bet other rooms have these unwanted indoor neighbors as well.

Probably a great motel back in the day

The motel has seen better days. Clean. Easy check in. But the door had to be held just a certain way in order for the key to work.

Not recommend to stay, but staff was nice.

Only good thing was the lady when we checked in was very nice. The room had an extreme musty and moldy odor which made me very sick by morning - I hoped the ac being turned on would take the odor out but even our clothing and blanket two days later smelled of the odor. When I realized at 1;30am the odor was stagnant didn’t want to switch rooms as it seemed busy. Tried to sleep but ended up from 3am on sleeping in the car. The room was dirty walls, hair on the toilet, dirty bath towel…ugh! Cobwebs on lamp shade…

Low price, high value, with some boogers

Frontier motel is low price, no frills, high value. I'm traveling by myself so I don't mind staying in a no-frills place, but I think my wife would object to staying there. The room was generally clean, sheets and pillows were clean, but in general the place is pretty rundown, but that's what you expect for 50 bucks a night. My one serious objection is that the shampoo, conditioner and lotion bottles were all partially filled, meaning someone before me had used them and they were just left for the next guest, who was me.

Knew it would be a low end motel, but it was bit worse. Smelled bad, bed super hard, frig in room broke and taped up. A/C wasn't the coolest. Light shined in window all night. Also panhandler was hanging around building.

Clean pit stop

The staff was very friendly and friendly both check-in & check-out. Though this is not a 5 star hotel the room was very well maintained and provided clean lodgings. If I had to make any negative comment regarding the property it might be the towels could stand to be updated and there was not an ice machine available. I will say there was an item I’d misplaced upon departure that upon calling they checked immediately while I was on the phone to confirm it hadn’t been left within the room. Thank you and keep up the good work!
