I like how close this place is to the event I attend once a year in Mountain Home. The room is small but comfy and very clean. Very easy to find. Near a gas station. Not really any complaints. Neighbors were a bit noisy but nothing obnoxious or threatening. Parking is adequate and never felt unsafe at the Thunderbird.

Adequate

Comfortable bed and good AC. Room is very small and has few electrical outlets. Motel is right next to train tracks where three or four loud trains passed by at night. Located next to a business highway but not too much traffic noise. No coffee available. Motel needs updates. Good WiFi.

The room was clean and large. There was no ice available as the machine has been broken. There is no coffee maker in the room and the lobby only had hot water and instant coffee.

For the money, the Thunderbird was a good value. The room was very clean, the bed was comfortable and the check in staff very pleasant and accommodating. Mountain Home doesn't have many budget conscious options and this is a good one.

The room was clean & comfortable. The fresh scent was pleasant. The host was friendly and helpful. The bathroom looked newly remodeled and everything was very clean. Decor had a retro vibe. Although the outside of the motel looked a bit run down, then inside was fine and we slept well.

10/10, would stay again

We stayed here for the nostalgia, it’s been 25 years since we came to the Thunderbird and it didn’t disappoint! I’m pretty sure the pool was closed then too - but we weren’t there to swim and it’s not advertised as having a pool. We just enjoyed the humor of it all. The room was clean and the guy who checked us in was friendly. If you’re looking for luxury, then pay quadruple the price and stay elsewhere! The Thunderbird Motel is a gem, an absolute classic and for the price, I have zero complaints. 10/10, would go again. Also, the carpet and interior decor is a vintage throwback - wow the memories!

This appears on the outside to be an older property, but the room was completely modernized. The bed was comfortable, there was plenty of furniture for any purpose, and the television was up to date. The bathroom had new fixtures. One caution: the shower stall was quite small - huskier guests would likely find it uncomfortable.
