Top Baxter Visitor Center and Museum Hotel Reviews

Best Western Thunderbird Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Had a great stay last weekend for Faith Jam! Got there early after driving 10 hours from Florida, and Kelly was genuinely pleasant and happy to check me in early. Room was clean and spacious, AC top notch, and the bathroom was stocked with towels and toiletries. Breakfast both mornings had good coffee and a nice assortment of options, from fresh fruit and oatmeal to eggs, biscuits and sausage or bacon...waffles, pastries, cereal...something for everyone! The breakfast room attendant was very nice, kept everything stocked, and was a pleasure to converse with! Will definitely choose the hotel again next year!"

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was super friendly, bed was comfortable. AC worked well. I was pleasantly surprised to see a microwave and mini fridge. Room was very quiet. Had a great night rest after traveling all day. Not the most kept up motel 6 I have stayed at, could have used some fresh paint here and there. A USB outlet would have been nice. I didn't have a wall charger with me, but I would definitely stay here again."

8/10 Good

"I booked this motel because it was pet friendly and had EV charging nearby. When I travel I'm looking for a good bed and hot shower. Someplace that makes me feel like my pet is welcome. This place is just that. The proximity to tons of restaurants and food shopping was a big plus as well!!"
