I liked everything. Liked the room. Plenty of space. The room w@s nice and cool and very clean. It was quiet and I could park right in front of my room. Highly satisfied
Super nice staff, excellent housekeeping. This historical hotel is old but so comfortable with great tv, coffee, fridge , micro, toiletries etc.
This should be your definite “stay” place when in Capitan.

Everything was wonderful but dead cockroach in bathroom which means pesticide is working against the cockroaches.
It is an older motel and quaint! It fit its name, Smokey Bear motel! The room and the beds were clean, had extra towels already in room, water in frig, snacks in a welcoming bowl, and a coffee pot! We were there for 2 nights for a family graduation!
Staff sent me information to enter room before i arrived. Did not have to check in at office, was able to straight to room. Located right by amazing restaraunt! Was so nice!
This motel, while not the fanciest place in the world was perfect for what I wanted. I was looking for a quiet place to spend a few days away from people but still feel like home. The room was very cozy and almost felt like a well worn cabin. The diner in the parking lot served great food. It was peaceful and relaxing just like I wanted
