The Dinner Bell Motel is in a great location close to Rainbow Springs, with stores, antique shops, and thrift stores within walking distance. The staff, including the front desk and cleaning lady, are described as very friendly, kind, respectful, helpful, polite, and understanding. The service is great. However, experiences with the rooms vary. Some guests found them clean, while others reported filthy conditions with dirt, crumbs, grime, and dirty towels or appliances. The motel is pet friendly. A common complaint is noise, from traffic on the main street, loud vehicles, motorcycles, and other guests or workers talking loudly. Some guests noted a lack of amenities like blankets, clean bedding, towels, or coffee. While some feel it is a place to relax and rate it highly, others suggest it needs an update.
