Village Inn - Challis

This is the restaurant not the hotel. Liked it so much we went twice. Had lunch on Thursday and Friday. Large portion chef salad, delicious hot beef and gravy with creamy mashed potatoes. The specialty lattes were very tasty. One of us also has a cheeseburger and fries and the burger was great too as was the patty melt. Good service on Thursday and ok service on Friday. Friendly, clean and good food. Can't ask for any better. Service: 4

Stopped here because we saw all of the great reviews. But our experience wasn’t very good. The room was clean, which is very important to us. Beyond that not great. Room is very outdated with ripped carpet, etc. There’s also some sort of plant behind the building that fills industrial propane bottles starting at 5 AM. So there’s a constant droning, which made it impossible to sleep. It was like somebody was constantly vacuuming the room above us. Went to the restaurant and the food was cold. It almost seems like it had been cooked the day before. Also, the waitress brought the wrong dish to my husband.

The lady at the desk is nice The rooms are a nightmare. Theyre the exact 70s shadey motel stereotype. The rooms are dim and dreary. Theres one over head light in the far corner. The bed sheets have to be 30 years old. The room reaks of poorly covered cigarette smoke. This is the motel you get murdered in. Going from a super 8 to this is a jolt, and that isnt something I ever thought I'd have the misfortune of saying. Rooms: 1

Didn't stay at the hotel, just ate at the restaurant. Very nice, small town diner. Good food. Friendly staff.

Room could have been updated but the experience overall was great because you are in the mountains. Rooms: 2 Service: 4 Location: 4 Hotel highlights: Great view
