The room was super clean, beds and pillows were very comfortable, and it was so quiet and peaceful! Service was top notch, we were given given great recommendations for activities in Thermopolis.

El Rancho Motel is a really nicely kept moderately priced motel of the drive-up-to-the-room category - my preferred style. The owner lives on the property and manages it with friendly service and a generous spirit. The room was clean and quiet, and the location is terrific.

I loved how nice and quiet everything was as well as how clean the rooms were. They were very friendly and attentive. Their queen beds were very comfortable however, the twin mattress was very uncomfortable I could feel the coils and felt very wobbly.
