Paintbrush Motel

Clean. Comfortable beds. Couldn’t hear the neighbors walking around or flushing toilets. Great water pressure in the shower. Super CLEAN!!! Great management. Affordable.

Very clean, friendly, & affordable.
I chose this hotel because of the Unilocal reviews — they’re really valuable as a traveler, so I wanted to come here and echo them.
The owner was really accommodating and — most importantly — the room was spotless. Super comfy bed too!
side note: when I used the shower/​sink, the bathroom smelled like sulphur/​sewage, though the water was clear. I was gonna knock off a star for what seemed to be a sewage issue until I spoke with a local and found out the water table is full of sulphuric, poisonous gas (H2S) after all of the oil drilling/​fracking going on (#banfrackingnow!). Don’t fault the hotel — it would happen anywhere in the area. I’m told it’s fine to shower in, but I wouldn’t drink it.
I would still go back despite that issue. It’s a gem.

I’ve travelled quite a bit. This is the cleanest hotel I’ve ever been to. Owners were friendly, helpful and interesting to listen to. We knew we would be in late; they made arrangements for us. SUPER FANTASTIC!!!

What a gem! My best friend and I were on the last couple of days of a two month road trip, just a few days ago, when we came across the Paintbrush Motel. At this point we felt like we’d seen it all when it came to «affordable» lodging. Needless to say the Paintbrush was an absolute standout in the most positive ways. The property itself is modest, but what it lacks in flare it makes up in warmth, impeccable cleanliness and abundant friendliness.
The room felt like you were visiting a beloved family member who had been cleaning for weeks waiting for your arrival. The customer service went far beyond just meeting our initial needs. After checking us in Ron and Gini — the owners (I hope I’m getting the names right) asked us about ourselves, gave us dinner recommendations and the next day gave us turn by turn directions to a more scenic route down to our final destination– they did not disappoint, as a result we fell in love with them and with Wyoming. A one night stay with them felt like an experience and a respite from the road. Thank you guys!

I am VERY surprised to be the first reviewer for Paintbrush Motel! My husband and I stopped in between visits to the Badlands and Yellowstone this week, and we really enjoyed our lodging here. The owner/​operator was one of the absolute nicest and friendliest we have encountered in any of our travels. He made us feel completely welcome and at home from the moment we walked into the office, even giving us Yellowstone maps and brochures and walking us to our guest room himself. He had an adorable feisty dog, too. We felt the room’s price was an excellent value as everything in the room was kept up to impeccable standards. Our room had two queen beds, and of course we only needed one… but it was a Sealy pillow top and very cushy and wonderful. The sheets and pillows and even the room’s carpet were so nice it truly felt like home compared to many motels in the same price range. I didn’t even think twice about walking barefoot here and that’s rare for me! The in-​room fridge and coffee maker were great and the A/​C worked well, as did the Wi Fi. We like to stay in a lot of kitschy older places that I might not recommend to friends & family with different tastes, but I can safely say that I’d recommend Paintbrush Motel to ANYONE. While very affordable, it was not the absolute cheapest option in this area — but it was great. It was also close to shopping such as supermarket, liquor, drugstore, and the like.

When we first pulled up we were skeptical, but soon we were impressed. This is an older, well loved motel, but the service is great and very personal. The motel is clean and well maintained. When we booked the room, they were very nice and helpful. This is a great little place to stay while passing through.

We came to Riverton from Ariz to surprise our favorite Uncle for his birthday May 30-​June 2, 2014. The owners were very friendly and welcoming to us. They go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable and well taken care of. Our rooms were very clean and the hot coffee every morning was a great beginning to our days there. I highly recommend this family owned Motel to anyone staying in the area!
