河景旅館(Scenic River Inn Motel)

This is a gem find right in Wartburg. Shopping to do some research at Frozen Head State Park. The staff was very helpful and polite and was a pleasant overnight stay.

Check-in was difficult, due to the night shift receptionist not speaking good english, but thanks to a phone call to manager (made by said receptionist), all was sorted.

After looking for hotels close to the prison. I called the hotel to reserve a room. They say text this number and we can reserve a room. Setup with a text to the owner over 3 months ahead. 2 months ahead I verified I had a king bed w cable tv, micro, fridge. Day of the stay texted to see when check in was able... who is this? Do you have a reservation? Says the hotel is full from online orders and only has a room for us to "look at"... we get there the room smells moldy and just nasty. Took payment and then we went to disinfect it. The towels are 3 different shades of dirty white. The roaches began scattering. We left for dinner immediately and put our things back in the car. I come back to the door to our room is open, the bed is made up again with the nasty sheets, my beer is now in their office as I find out when I go to the office to find out why my personal belongings are now missing. The only thing he says is you signed for the room. Before the roaches were discovered! This place is a joke and a scam as I have found out further. I would not waste your time trying it there are many nicer clean places nearby

Upon arrival we walked into our room and flipped on the lights. Immediately a slew of cockroaches scattered. There were even cockroaches throughout the bedding! We left and lost our money due to their "no refund" policy. No amount of money could have convinced us to stay. DO NOT STAY HERE unless you want to come home with a suitcase full of cockroaches!

The name Scenic River Motel is quite misleading. This property is not maintained in a manner that is up to commercial standards. I arrived to check in at 6 PM with the intent to stay out late at the Obed Wild and Scenic River to star gaze. The front desk did not answer the doorbell. A motel unit (under age) resident came out of his room and gave me instructions how to enter the motel office. The lady in attendance was unable to communicate in English but she did give me key card to my room. Eventually, an attendant who did speak English knocked on my door. He instructed me to pay with my credit card (I assumed that I had already pre-paid via *******). The grounds surrounding this motel most unfortunately looked shabby, with old mattresses left outside leaking against the front side of the motel and some discarded material from interior of one room laying on the front yard lawn. I pointed this out to the attendant who took my credit card (and who I assume was the manager). I’m surprised local authorities have not inspected this place. This is the town of Wartburg’s only motel. It should be required to be properly maintained. Its exterior appearance should be brought up to standard. The room was basic and clean. The air conditioner was in functioning order. The stopper in the wash basin sink did not close.

Great place nice people
