    This is the list of charges they have, proving they clean the rooms
    Michael O.

    I was in transit between Denver and glacier national park and I was coming through here late at night, and it didn't look bad, and it had vacancy. It wasn't a hotel or motel in the traditional sense, but more like a collection of small cabins that had been split into 2 rooms. The rooms themselves weren't bad, despite them being very dated, and it seemed as if they had a well executed cleaning schedule. Some of my complaints were things mostly having to do with the room being old. The shower was cramped, and the shower head was probably only 66" of the ground, so I had to bend over to get under it, which was a problem because the shower was probably only 3 feet wide and 3 feet deep. Other things include that the mattresses could use some help; the doors didn't fit into their places very well; and the wall plugs were few and far between, and most seemed really old and sketchy, and there wasn't one behind the nightstand; and there were a lot of creepy old people smoking in beaters outside many of the rooms. Aside from that, it was fine.

    Super 8 by Wyndham Dubois - Used and crusty shampoo bottle

    Super 8 by Wyndham Dubois

    (14 reviews)

    $

    A desperately needed bed -- but understand what you are paying for…read more This is one of those reviews where two things are true at the same time: I am extremely grateful this motel existed when I needed it, and I also cannot pretend the stay justified the approximately $137 price. I arrived late after an exhausting day of driving through Wyoming. Other lodging options were becoming unavailable, it was dark, I was tired, and continuing farther into rural Wyoming was becoming a bad idea. In that sense, Super 8 Dubois did exactly what a roadside motel sometimes needs to do: it gave me somewhere to stop. And I slept. I needed that sleep badly. By the next afternoon I felt like a completely different person. That is why I am giving this three stars instead of two. But the property itself needs attention. I am a Wyndham Rewards Diamond member, and this was actually my first Diamond stay. There was no recognition of that status at check-in. I had to ask whether there were any Diamond benefits, and the interaction basically turned into being asked whether I wanted the first or second floor. After receiving room 115, I walked to the end of the building, put my key near the lock -- and discovered that my room door was already open. That immediately made me stop and wonder whether somebody was inside or whether I had somehow been assigned an occupied room. The room had a strong musty/damp smell with an old-carpet quality to it. The A/C had been set extremely cold. When I later turned on the heat, the HVAC fan made such a loud mechanical racket that I eventually shut it off because it was disturbing my sleep. I then noticed numerous dark spots on the artwork near the bed that looked potentially moisture-related or mold-like. The next morning, while looking under the bed, I also found an old dirty sock. I reported both things at the front desk around breakfast time. The response was simply that someone would look at it. No apology, no visible concern, and I never saw any follow-up. Breakfast was actually one of the better parts of the stay. There were waffles, yogurt, apples, bananas, instant oatmeal and typical continental items. I appreciated the yogurt because I wasn't feeling well enough for a waffle. The odd part was that I could not find hot water for the instant oatmeal, and I did not see plain drinking water available. The bathroom continued the maintenance theme. The sink had good water pressure but drained so slowly that it quickly began filling. The shower worked, but there was substantial crusted buildup in corners and other areas. The supplied toiletries were basic bar soap, shampoo and conditioner. Getting hold of staff was consistently difficult. The front desk was unattended when I arrived. It was unattended again when I tried to arrange late checkout. Calls to the hotel and calls from the room phone went unanswered, and I eventually had to use a text number to get assistance. To their credit, they did give me a 1 p.m. checkout. At 1 p.m., I returned to the desk to leave. Again, no one was there. I had to use the phone to reach someone just to confirm that they did not need anything from me. Before leaving, I asked where I could get some drinking water. I was told to use the vending machine. The walls are also extremely thin. Noise from upstairs sounded dramatically louder than it should have, so light sleepers should be prepared. This property feels like an old roadside motel that has accumulated decades of wear without a sufficiently comprehensive renovation. Old is not automatically bad. I love plenty of old motels. But old plumbing, aging HVAC equipment, moisture-related spotting, lingering odors, crusted bathroom surfaces and inconsistent staff availability eventually stop being "character" and become maintenance issues. The frustrating part is that this could be a much better property. Dubois absolutely needs a dependable late-night hotel option, and travelers passing through this part of Wyoming will sometimes have little appetite for continuing another several hours in the dark. So my conclusion is strange but fair: I am genuinely glad I stayed here. I needed that bed. I needed the rest. I would make the same decision again under the circumstances. But at roughly $137, the physical product and service felt far closer to what I would expect from a $60-$70 roadside motel. Wyndham should be providing this franchise considerably more quality-control oversight and pushing for reinvestment in the building. Useful in a pinch? Absolutely. Good value at the rate I paid? No.

Had to warm up the shower for 10 minutes before it was luke warm. It was right around $200 a night, it was worth maybe $50. Just needs a lot of TLC.

I'd come here even it weren't close to the Tetons or the Wind Rivers, simply because of Louise Lake, which one of those picturesque and slightly remote locations that tell you, yes, you're in Wyoming, and yes, it is this scenic in real life, too (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/jakeys-fork-homestead-bed-and-breakfast-dubois?select=cdxVgsY55c2Vsi86mS07gg#N357UsP_mWPjj7n0U5RgVg). But the location doesn't speak for itself. Carolyn does that, based on years of NOLS backcountry guiding and decades of Wyoming homesteading with her daughters. She's one of those pathfinding polymaths for whom running a B&B is simply one act of many. But it's a really virtuoso performance, and while her clientele may be select, they are immensely appreciative of the red-carpet welcome she offers. And if the red carpet isn't enough, ask for the USGS map of Louise Lake and the walking guide to the petroglyphs. Your tired feet will thank you, in the sauna, afterward.

The back door has a bench facing the mountains for watching wildlife and the beautiful scenery. It's more like a small cabin with a vaulted ceiling, two queen beds, a very large wood table (for bags, boxes and other supplies), microwave, refrigerator, a leather chair and a small kitchen table for two ( which my man is using as a desk. The bathroom is HUGE. The sink area is smaller than those hotel rooms that have that large flat area outside the bathroom where the sink and mirror are located. There is about 5 feet of open space so you don't have to put you face near the toilet when you dry yourself off. The beds are super clean and super comfortable. The Ranch Brand is all over the room. On the headboards, back of the chairs, and even on the mirror. Everything is made from wood, no plastic, cloth or pleather chairs and tables. We checked in late, so we haven't yet taken advantage of the rest of the property. There are some 'trails' or walk around the property. The Walkabout Loop goes around the whole property, which is right next to the Wind River. There is a playground and firepit. They have 10 tent sites and 55 RV sites. You can pull through, pull in, back out your RV. They even have some spaces for 'big rigs'. There are also 4 cabins as well, so they have whatever level of comfort you're looking for. Can't wait to come back, maybe stay in a cabin and take a horse ride.

So they are helpful. Great big shade trees and lots of places for your furry guy. Some areas have weeds with stickers in them watch your dog's feet. The little round stickers are painful to remove. I really wish more rv parks would plant actual grass instead of just letting the weeds be the green spaces. That's my only complaint but almost every park has the same thing I guess growing grass is an expense they don't want to fix.
