Great motel!
Great stay. Ample parking for my 26’ trailer. Quaint room and decor. Everything worked. Great service upon arrival. Greeted by name, room lights and heater on. Outstanding service. Had dinner at onsite restaurant, great service, value and good food. Not a Hilton but great stopover on the highway 👍😎

Not impressed.
The room was not very good. I did stay with my dog (she is medium sized and weighs under #30. Doesn't bark, potty trained & very well mannered) and so I believe the room I was given was probably the "dog room." I can understand the reasoning but even my dog was not happy either. The carpet for sure was disgusting.
Also, it took forever to get so-so hot water.

The staff were very nice. However, the heater was very unsafe. We smelt gas very strongly most of the day. We had to light the pilot light on the heater multiple times even through the night. The heater was very very old and not in suitable condition for this type of environment. Beds were comfortable and clean linen was very clean. Facility overall fairly older, but it was convenient for our stay.

Room are pretty bad but restaurant is pretty good
The only good thing to say about the room is it had a decent tv with good selection of channels. Other than that the place is really old and lacking. Floor is so squeaky that you wonder if you will fall through.

One of the few places during a three week visit to Idaho where daily housekeeping was provided. Tasty, well prepared food in the Village restaurant.

The village inn was in a small town but was very clean and nice. However I would never use Expedia to book again I
would call the Village Inn direct. We booked 2 nights with Expedia but they only booked one night with the Villiage Inn. As the Inn was full we had to find another place in a different town.
