Excellent motel. I could not rate 5 star due to the poor internet. My advice for management/owners would be to get a Starlink account. Except for Internet everything was great.
Great location, clean and friendly. Only complaint was that we had lots of internet issues — I had planned on working, but got knocked offline constantly. Tried to watch a streaming show and had to reconnect to the internet about every 4-6 minutes. Phones frequently couldn’t find the hotel network. No problem for most travelers probably, but we had counted on having strong WiFi. They said probably the weather, which is certainly out of their control. Loved everything else.
Excellent place to stay! The cleanest motel I have ever stayed at. Very roomy and comfortable with a kitchenette and area to relax. Next door to King Tiger which was some of the best Thai food!
Very clean and well equipped accommodation. Staff were so helpful with making recommendations for local restaurants. Beds were super comfortable. Very positive experience and would definitely go back if we are in the area!!
This motel is exceptional. Pams welcome was fabulously friendly...the room was expansive..great facilities and looked brand new..so well maintained.. cleaning staff polite and friendly too..couldnt recommend more highly. Stay here if you come to Franz Josef!
Perfect little hotel with comfortable, clean and well equipped rooms and parking. Great location to explore the mountains and glacier. Main street restaurants are a short walk away.
