We found this a fun adventure and enjoyed our time here. This is the most reasonable place to sleep in Medora and the price makes it great for those of us on a fixed income. We had a room with a queen bed. It had a night stand on one side and a chair on the other. We had plenty... More

I booked 2 months early to have a place to stay for my brother's wedding. I even called twice to let them know I would be checking in early as to get ready. They assured me that they had to notes and the room would be ready when I got there. When I arrived they couldn't find my reservations and... More

This is a collection of double wide trailers divided into eight motel rooms each. The rooms are just slightly larger than the queen sized bed and the bathroom is also tiny. The building we were in had a slight gymnasium aroma in the hall, and an AC unit that made no noticeable difference to the temperature of the room. On... More

This is a fine place to sleep and leave your junk while exploring TRNP and Medora. Yes, the rooms are small, but the beds are adequate and the place is clean. My son and I have stayed here on several trips to explore the Little Missouri River Badlands.

The stop in Medora helped us break up our trip to Yellowstone. After the week's stay at a DUMP in West Yellowstone - we were happily surprised with The Bunkhouse Motel. Yes, it is very basic BUT provided air conditioning (temps were in the 90's to 100's all week) and cable t.v. We were stuck with tin foil wrapped rabbit... More

We stayed in the Bunkhouse ( three couples, three rooms) for the night of July 19/2012. If you want a cheap, good night sleep in an air conditioned room with a tad on the "roughing it side", this fits the bill. We did not get to use the pool but the free coffee was thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the front... More

You know how sometimes high schools and colleges that are strapped for cash build these little rickety plywood wooden trailers a few feet off the ground that are supposed to be temporary, with disgusting linolium floors, for extra office or class space? Well this place decided for some reason to build an entire motel out of those. These are the... More

I stayed at the Bunkhouse this last weekend, in the family unit. I travelled with a friend and did not want to share the room. Mainly because it was very small, the twin beds about a foot apart. The *family Unit * was simply two small rooms with adjoining door. Overpriced I thought for the facility. No coffee machine, very... More

We had to stay here because we travel with pets and it is where the central reservations person put us. It is a trailer to be sure, but I have stayed in similar places that were better. The sheets were very old and shabby and the pillowcases did not match the sheets. The curtains seem to have been there for... More

As another reviewer said, the room is basically doublewide trailers split up into tiny rooms. Inside you will find a bed, bath, air conditioner, TV, and flyswatter. My main complaint is the maids are obviously lazy and don't change/wash sheets and towels as they should be. I checked in the first night and find a blood stain on one of... More
