We arrived by motorcycle in a heavy rain. We were soaked but the desk clerk was kind enough to give us an early check in. She was friendly, polite, and courteous. Plenty of eating places within walking distance.

Location is excellent. Very clean. Only complaint is how loud the road is and dark the bathroom is. Would stay here again. Wish they had something to dull the highway traffic it sounds like your door is wide open and makes it difficult to sleep as the highway never slows down. I brought a fan so I cranked it to help drown some of the sound, it was still there but did help. Very clean and comfortable otherwise. Check in was busy - 3 people checking in- and took over 30 minutes so be prepared for that. All in all I would stay here again, simple CLEAN and very. Convenient location.

Clean room older need bathroom remodel parking is a bit of a steep hill nightmare on the strip with view so it was noisy till midnight. No elevator so to get to seco g floor you must walk up a very steep painted concrete ramp uk was a bit of a challenge with a cane. Going down the as very scary due to it being wet from rain.

Sandra

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
We had a terrible sleep, the car activities outside the room ran till 3am. We arrived after 10pm and the clerk should have tried and give us a room in the back. She also said it was on the third floor, and told us to go from the back, it was really the second floor but in the front of the building. The room was ok, it was clean but really old. to be honest not sure if any rooms were available in the back, but maybe saying all the room in back full might have helped. We could only walk to the cook out which was swamped by these car people, it did feel a bit unsafe.

Would definitely stay again…

We enjoyed our stay. It was quiet & peaceful even with a new roller coaster being put in next door. The room was very nice, clean, & offered a wonderfully comfortable bed. The staff was very kind & welcoming. The location was very good, also. The only suggestion we could make is that the bathtub in the room we had needs repaired or replaced bc it was “chipped up” in multiple places, & parking was fairly tight.

This was our third stay at Wild Bear Inn. It is always affordable with a great staff and a clean room. That's exactly how our visit was this time as well. The only thing we would mention is that our bathroom needed a bit of improvements. The water pressure was a bit low and the appearance needed a refresh in the bathroom. It was functionable and we were fine during our stay. We will be back again soon!
