This motel is truly top notch. From the young lady who helped with our registration to the convenience of parking, the room itself and having a restaurant next door. Our only regret is that we only stayed 1 night.

We just completed a 10 day road trip - different hotels each night. Top Notch was BY FAR the best place we stayed. Awesome updating / renovation of an older motel style facility. Great public space features. Clean rooms. Quiet. Friendly staff.

Hot tub needed cleaning, so did the pool. The pool definitely was not heated. There were four of us in the hot tub, average sized woman, I cannot imagine it holding four more. The grilling/firepit area is in the middle of the parking lot. And the the price, over $300 a night on the weekend, the do not even include a continental breakfast. There wasn't even water for the coffee maker. The beds were clean though.

right on the road so trucks were omnipresent with their rumbling through town, but I think any hotel in this area will have that issue. needed shades on the windows to block out daylight. Mattress felt way to soft. Desk clerk was terrific. also one of the only hotels we've come across with a car charger

Great place to stay
Very friendly front desk clerk welcomed us. Room was extremely clean. Room was exactly as advertized. Observed maintenance man sweeping all of parking area and walkways, and wiping down outside window sills. He also washed carpets in rooms after ATV riders checked out. House keepers are meticulous cleaners.

I stayed for one night before a hike to the AMC Madison Hut. It was easy to check-in. The room was very comfortable - updates had been made recently. Parked right in front of the room - pool was open but I did not use. A fire pit is lighted every evening. A number of good restaurants close by. I would stay here again the next time I am in the area.
