2 used bars of soap in the shower. Cig butts on the floor. Only PBS on tv. This place has gotten way worse over the last year. And that’s hard to do.

Trust the 1 & 2 star reviews.
It was amazingly filthy dusty, dirty windows, very dated and linens and towels were very old and not clean properly they were yellow stains on them. Could not bolt lock the door. There was a Smoke detector but it was barely there. I'm not even sure if it worked. Upon arrival there was nobody there. There was a note front office door to go to the gas station for checking. The gentleman there was didn't seem happy to see me. I left in the morning, there was still nobody there. I called the number for service and did receive a call back promptly. The two rooms adjacent to me that were occupied both had broken windows and the neighbor to the left of my window use that window as a doorway to exit and enter his motel room. This place needs a lot of work and it doesn't appear that it's being done. if it was me and I own hotel.com I would remove this one from anybody being able to rent it from you

Although it was quite a drive to work everyday, I didn't mind because it was quiet once I returned home in the early morning and wasn't disturbed while sleeping (I was working nights). Would definitely stay there again.

Old, run down, smelly and sad. Very dated. Last person's toenails were in the shag carpet, hair in the tiny RV-sized shower. Beds were good. Price was good.

Value
Awesome value for the money. This is an older location, but my room was clean and well appointed. It had a microwave and a refrigerator. There is plenty of parking especially for large vehicles. You can't beat the price for a good night's rest. The managers are great people and very helpful. I'll definitely stay here again when passing through.

Good for what it is.
It is fine for a no frills motel. I don’t have any complaints. I would recommend calling the place directly to confirm the booking. They said they didn’t get the email from Hotels.com

Looks rundown but room was clean and comfortable.
As this motel is being renovated it is very rundown from the exterior. Once inside my room it was very clean and comfortable.

Great value for the money
The Circle S Motel is a great value for the money. The decor was outdated, but the room was otherwise comfortable. The place was relatively clean aside from an old soap wrapper on the floor and a couple of slightly stained (but otherwise clean) towels. It felt safe and quiet. I can't really complain about it at all. You can't beat the price.

Clean, comfortable stay at a reasonable price
Great stay for the price! The decor is definitely old school, but our room was clean and comfortable. Don't expect lots of bells and whistles--this motel seems to be geared for the road tripper who just needs a place to lay their head at night. There is some freeway noise but really not bad considering the location. Given the price point, I would recommend!

You get what you pay for
I stayed here partly because there were no reviews yet. I checked in at night while it was snowing and had a difficult time finding the entrance. The road that looked like the entrance had "Do Not Enter" signs (still not sure if that's the way I should have gone). When you check in, make sure to write down the phone number that's posted at the front door as there is no other way to call the front desk if you have issues. I knew paying as little as they charge that I wouldn't get much. There is a fridge and microwave in the room but no shampoo or conditioner. The room was comfortable enough but very worn out. I couldn't decide if the location was perfect as it was just off the interstate and somewhat hidden or if it was a horror film waiting to happen. Overall, if you're just looking for a place to lay your head for the night, this place fits the bill!
