Mokee Motel

Though this is definitely an older road side motel, the staff were nice and the rooms have been updated and were clean. Excellent restaurant (Comb Ridge Eat & Drink) within walking distance. If you are needing a clean place to stay, it is definitely a good option.

We stayed here for one night-before we went on the river. The motel is clean and comfortable. The shower pressure was amazing! I would stay again. The patio is a nice place to sit and have a glass of wine when the sun goes down. It would have been nice if they provided coffee/breakfast. The gas station has good breakfast burritos.

We were hesitant to reserve a room here because of the picture but the room was much nicer than we expected. The room had two beds, a long chest of drawers, refrigerator & microwave. The room was decorated with some nicely done Indian art that was also for sale. To the owners of the motel - you did a good job remodeling. You might publish a better picture of the motel.

Driving up to this place, from the roadway, it looks like a total dive. It is not, however, nearly as bad as it looks from the outside. Our room was small but adequate and it was clean and quiet. The bedding was not all that comfortable, primarily due to a huge slant on both of our beds (one slanted to the left side, the other slanted to the right). The hotel does not have 24-hour office/staff hours (FAR from it!!), so if you need anything after hours, well, good luck with that. The hotel also has no amenities of any kind. Our stay was uneventful but not ideal. I might stay here again, if in a pinch, but this definitely would not be my first (or second) choice for where to stay when/if in the area again in the future.

We stayed at the Mokee Motel in October 2022. After returning from dinner at the Twin Rocks Cafe (highly recommended!), I found cockroaches on the floor between the beds. They definitely had not been there before we left the room for dinner. I killed them (but yuck) and went to the office to tell the desk clerk. It was about 8 p.m. and the OPEN sign was lit up, but no one answered. I went to the office again the next morning, but there was no answer, and no one answered the phone when I called. Later, I finally reached the manager (owner?) by phone. She said she'd been away, and apologized for the cockroaches and the nonresponse from the person working in the office while she was gone. Our credit card had already been charged, but I asked for a small refund from the $141 we paid for the room. She said she'd think about it and would call me back the next morning. She never called me back nor did she respond to a message I left reminding her that she'd promised to call. The whole experience was yucky, weird, and disappointing.

Small motel out of the way of lots of travelers (i.e. tourists - ha). Quiet town, small. Motel was very nicely decorated (this was something my wife mentioned repeatedly and shared with the owner). I look for comfort, function, amenities and price and all these desires of mine were well-satisfied. No breakfast but that was a known ahead of time and not a concern.
