Arco Inn

Arco is a small town with only a couple of stay choices. Arco Inn is clean, easy location close to food and activities. Close to the Craters of the Moon National Monument and the EBR - I, the world's first nuclear power plant.

Over-priced for what you get

Not really worth the price. Bare minimum amenities but with a not-so-low price. No coffee available. Ice machine not working. Room was in ok condition and the bed was comfortable. Motel is right off the main road but was quiet. Strong wi-fi.

Only motel in the area. Pretty dated. Clean, and new manager very friendly. She sort of inherited a mess. Town was very friendly, and the park across the street was very nice. Coffee shop up the street a couple blocks.

Staff was very nice. Rooms were not. First room we were assigned the main room lights did not work. Second room the lights for the bathroom and dressing area were cross wired so the switch for one worked the other. The beds had a definite hammock effect - - they need to rotate the mattresses once in a while. Peeling paint and filthy pillows inside clean pillowcases were lesser problems. But may be best place to stay in Arco.

We stayed here to be as close to Craters of the Moon as possible. Peggy was friendly and gave us good advice on how to watch the fireworks display. The room was clean and spacious. This is a great find considering how small Arco is. We had a comfortable stay.

This was a nice motel in the middle of Arco. It was easy to find, easy to get into, and quiet, although there was not much going on in Arco. A restaurant was a short drive away. Everything worked and I was comfortable.

A good night's rest!

A basic roadside motel. It was clean and plenty of space and a perfect hot shower and comfortable bed. Check in was easy and friendly. The furnishings are older and a bit worn, but functional. TV worked great. It met all our expectations and needs.
