Awesome!

The motel was very clean and well made, and the staff was awesome ! The food at the bar is amazing and well priced. Tge only real downside was either the walls are thin, or our neighbors were loud. Still, 9.5 out of 10

1st Stay

Was a good stay. Bought a fly swatter and left it there as there were a few flies.... it is fly season tho. Walls were thin... turned off tv and could hear neighbors talking. I wondered if our tv was loud for them then. Dish towels or wash cloths would be good for kitchenette... Coffee leaked and had to use a white bathroom wash cloth. Overall I enjoyed my stay there. I'd stay again for sure.

Super Great place to stay. Loved the simple industrial decor. Easy check in and out. Close to Nemadji state forest. Perfect place to stay for ATV riding in Nemadji!! Thanks Bears Den for a great stay!

Nice Place to stay next to restaurant bar

Newer motel, next to restaurant, bar and store. Cement floors, kinda cold, firm beds, checkin for room is at the bar. Overall good experience.

10/10 Exceptional

Nice location around a lot of state parks it was a very peaceful quiet stay even though the mosquitoes outside were abominable so the only suggestion I would have would be a bug zapper.

Little Gem in Bruno

We were in town for a wedding and found this little gem. We had a fantastic stay- the motel is very clean and comfortable, and the staff was so kind. It felt like a ritzy Schitt’s Creek experience.

Pleasant overnight in Bruno

Room was very spacious, clean, & inviting. Check-in was easy at their bar/restaurant/convenience store next door. We enjoyed the Friday Night Fish Fry & a couple cold tap beers at the bar. There’s a nice beer garden area; looked like it would be a lot of fun on an evening when they have live music. Would gladly stay again, if in the area.

Very impressed with this motel. I would highly recommend this place. Very clean. Nicely decorated. I travel a lot and this is by far the nicest motel I have ever stayed in. Check in very convenient.

Everything is modern and worked as it should.
Timothy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The accomodations were excellent! But the walls were thin, and the visitor in the next room yelled and cried at times, and could easily be heard, which excited our dog and he barked in response, causing the visito to yell back at him. So I slept in my car with the dog for the first part of the night.

Weekend Away

This motel far exceeded our expectations. The owner was helpful and very accommodating. The room was crisp and clean. The bed was comfortable. The only thing that was lacking was the hot water did not get hot enough for us. Breakfast at the bar was great, making this get away perfect.
Rhonda, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I really like to use some design with the plumbing pipes. The only thing is the bed do not need to be that close to the wall they needed to build a table on the second side of the bed or an outlet is.
Faith, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

I ended up leaving about 3 hours after checking in. While it was decently clean, that was not enough of a selling point to make up for the incredibly thin walls, no carpeting or rugs in the room so wearing shoes the whole time was basically required, a refrigerator that wasn't turned on (that also leaked a puddle of water all over the floor from whomever last turned it off), a microwave that didn't not heat food at all when I attempted to use it (which also kept shorting itself on and off when I wasn't using it), shower water that smelled like rusty pond water, and cigarrette butts all over the ground in the parking area despite the binder in the room saying not to litter and be courteous enough to step away from the building while smoking. At the very least, I have minimum expectations of clean water, working appliances, and clean bedding... so atleast the bedding was clean.
