This Is Our Go To Place In Benson
We enjoy staying at the Benson Motel because it’s clean and the staff is very responsive to our needs. The only negative is, if you are looking for breakfast, you have to go into town to seek the local options.

I was looking for a place to stay 1 night after hiking the beautiful State Parks in this area, and Expedia suggested this motel. It was perfect for my needs. The price is right, the room ample and clean, nice king size bed, water pressure in the shower amazing. I'll continue to explore this area after a good-night sleep.

Bathrooms way too small, uncomfortable, next time our techs will stay elsewhere if they have a job in this area again.

This cute little motel was perfect for what I needed. The only thing I really didn’t like was there was no type of vending machines. The town is kind of in the middle of no where and there wasn’t any type place to get food. A snack would have been very helpful.

Little trouble checking in as this first time with this system. Phone call to number given and all went well.

Clean Motel. Responsive Staff.
The rooms are clean. When we ran out of facial tissue, the staff was very responsive to replace our box. I put a 4 star on eco-friendly as I didn’t see anything that promoted recycling.

Great overnight stay!
Super comfortable bed and pillows. We slept well after the trains stopped whistling. Very spacious room for the two of us. Love the idea of how to check in to get the room key. Owners/managers very attentive to questions in texts. Thank you!
Jessica J, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I recently stayed at this quaint and cute motel, and I was pleasantly surprised by the experience. The check-in process was different from the usual, as they have implemented automated services, but it was smooth and hassle-free. It's clear that the motel has undergone significant updates, and they are transforming it into a place people will really enjoy. After a dinner in town, we returned to the motel and spent some time relaxing outside in their comfortable Adirondack chairs, taking in the beautiful view. Overall, a wonderful stay that I would recommend to anyone looking for a cozy and modernized retreat.
Teresa, 1-night trip

Great little motel, would stay again for sure! The process is simple and easy, the room was clean and simple with all the necessities. Everything was well thought out and considerate. I'd give this place 10 stars if i could! Thank you for a quiet, pleasant stay!

All good, unusual check in for us. Would have preferred main floor as we are in our late 70’s.

10/10 Exceptional

The motel was great but the service was greater. They were very welcoming. There is not a front desk in the motel but we didn’t need it. They were very responsive and helpful, and explained everything in detail.

10/10 Exceptional

Freshly renovated and clean.
Carol, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

King size bed with large windows to let in natural light. Check in was automated and very easy. Housekeeping knocked on the door at 8:30am to see if we had left (they didn't announce themselves, but later learned it was staff and not a misdirected customer). Housekeeping knocked again at 9:30am and opened the door as they announced themselves before I could reach it while partially dressed. Check out was supposed to be at 11am, but felt like we should have been out of the room before 7am.

An older property, tastefully renovated rooms, new fixtures, water pressure awsome. Very clean
