Stayed in the Historic Suite 501 while in town visiting and attending a show at the Town Hall. Beautiful room and view.

Loved this hotel, ended up staying an unexpected second night and we loved it here. Clean, smelled good, spacious, quiet, comfy, cozy, room 216 is where it’s at.

Not that Medora is a big town but the hotel is centrally located. Rooms are very nice, beds comfortable and it’s quiet.
