The Nomad Motel - International Falls, MN - Near Canadian Border

When we went to check in, the key pick up service didn't work, but it was good that we got a hold of someone right away. The room was very nice, but the carpet seemed quite musty. Also, the bed was way too soft, we sank into it.

The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. The automatic key dispenser did not work for us both times we stayed here. Otherwise it was a positive experience.

This is a remodelled motel. The rooms were clean, the bed was comfortable and I had a great sleep. The channel options on the tv had a great selection and a lot more than you can come to expect in a hotel these days. I would stay here again. Great coffee place and restaurant across the street. My only complaint is that the ice freezer was empty when we went to grab some in the morning.

Parking is a little challenging when people with large trucks and boats. Contactless check in and is able to communicate by texting is vert convenient. Close to shops and Voyageur National park as well as Canadian Border. Will stay again.

No parking if pulling a boat.

Boat parking is limited

No laundry facilities for guests as advertised in Facility Amenities. We were on second floor, with no elevator. Hard to lug suitcases up stairs. No hand or bath soaps provided. Beds were very comfortable. About as close as we could get to Voyageurs National Park. Check in/out process was very efficient. All in all, it met our basic needs for 2 nights.

This is a newly remodeled, super clean and very well thought out motel with everything you need for a pleasant night. I’m a fan except, and it’s a big one, the check in process is not as smooth as it needs to be. The check-in process is automated and required a key safe code that came only after a call, and about 90 minutes of waiting. Not great at all.

They didn't have a pool or hot tub. After driving for hours, we would have liked to relax in the hot tub and pool.

This is a nice place. Not high end, but for the value, we were happy. Bed was a bit hard and only a queen. We booked somewhat last minute the weekend of Labor Day, so for the value, it was good. No gym or breakfast.

One of the best small hotels that i have ever stayed. Very clean and tidy!

The room was spotless, newly renovated hotel I think. The check-in and check-out instructions and process was very simple and clear.

dirty bathroom, not cleaned, hair all over the place, spider web by toilet. never texted room key info.

Clean, quiet, newly refurbished motel. Everything was perfect. mattresses, shower, TV, price and non contact check in. Will stay there every time I’m in I’ Falls.

The price was reasonable, the room seemed clean but the carpet had so many stains on it, I wasn't sure it was that clean. The bed was comfortable. The Roku wouldn't load so TV was not an option. It worked for 1 night.

Spotless. Excellent stay and very comfortable.

We have stayed at this property a few times before (same room). This time the floor was dirty (you could see foot prints in the carpet) and their was mold growing around the shower walls where the two pieces of the shower wall came together.

Room smelled great! Bathroom was very nice, water pressure for the shower was amazing. The tv said no signal and couldn't make it work, but we call the desk and someone was there within 30 minutes and got it set up. The remote still didn't work get but we were able to watch a movies. The only thing we were on sure of was the carpet felt damp the 1st night, by the 2nd it was much better.

This Motel has been remodeled inside it’s absolutely clean from the bathroom to the front door. Clean quiet and friendly cleaning personnel.

Nomad does NOT deserve the 4.5 out of 5 rating as advertised online There was obvious water damage in the room. On the ceiling, and damp floor, had a moldy smell. The A.C./Heat unit sounded like an old Helicopter every time it started, including throughout the night making it hard to sleep. This was room 116

Five stars for mattress, internet service, and shower

Older building so the upstairs guests were quite noticeable when walking around. Very squeaky floor.

Pros: Easy to access property with automated key check-in/out - our room was nice looking, easy to find, spacious and updated, comfortable. Cons: Bathroom was not the cleanest, my husband said the water pressure was not great, AC vent rattled constantly which doesn’t really bother us but I know some people would hate that haha.

It was very clean and nice. The only thing I did not like was that the bed was much too soft

Check-in and check-out were fast an easy. Very quiet despite being right to highway. Room lighting was a bit dim.

This is a classic case of don't judge a book by its cover. From the outside, this motel looks like an old school motel. But on the inside, it is a modern hotel room. The beds are comfortable in spacious rooms. Roku televisions allow to watch just about anything, or login to your streaming service. And the showers were amazing. Great water pressure with plenty of hot water. Next time I'm staying in the area, this is where I will stay.

Extremely clean but the bed was so hard we felt we were sleeping on a board

Our rooms were very clean. The rooms were small and did not have a lot of shelve spaces. The unusual point about this property was that it did not have receptionist in the property. I used text message to communicate with property staff. The text communication was fast and present.

Easy parking. Town is small and quiet Only real negative is thin walls, I can hear other guests’ TVs

Positive; My room was clean and neat the beds were very comfortable. Negative; My room was very small. No dresser, no place to put anything Had two small old metal chairs and a tiny wooden table, period.

Great 2 night stay. Room was clean and comfortable. Communication with management with timely and thorough. Nice location in quiet, walkable neighborhood.

I have stayed here Many times I like it very much The checkin in process however leaves much to be desired today they didn’t send me the text message because they said “I was at the bottom of the list “and they also had my phone number incorrect although they corrected it themselves so they must’ve had it correct somewhere when I got to the hotel, my code to obtain my key did not work. Neither did the code of the people in front of me so we had to call to get our keys. I stayed in one of their new rooms which is beautiful, large comfortable and well appointed. My only suggestion would be their window screens as this place has very aggressive mosquitoes The nomad is a great choice in International Falls a

The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. The automatic key dispenser did not work for us both times we stayed here. Otherwise it was a positive experience.

I had not received a text prior from the hotel regarding contactless check-in but I was easily able to contact someone for help. She was very helpful and apologetic for any inconvenience.

The staff were really nice and friendly, we left the computer bag in the room when we checked out without knowing it until we arrived to our next stop more than 500miles away. We contacted the service staff, they offered to ship it to us, even though it didn't work out due to the post office was on strike, but we are really appreciate with their help. Will definitely recommend to our friends

Check in was easy communication was great! Would stay again!

Check in

Great option for visiting Voyageurs National Park. Renovated motel that was a fantastic value. The check in was extremely convenient and quick. We received a text message with instructions on getting our key from the kiosk at the front text. Loved that quick check in approach. Staff was extremely quick to respond to any questions. We will definitely stay here again if returning to the area.

It was clean and furnished in a utilitarian style. We disliked the robotic check-in with no welcome. Upon calling the help number and leaving a message inquiring of the wifi password, my call was returned by a man identifying himself as the "owner." After providing the password, he inquired about my impression of the automated check-in, something that I stated I did no like, that it was robotic and impersonal, and there was no opportunity to ask questions or get extra assistance. Before I could finish, he rudely interrupted by talking over me, and stated that I "rude," even though I was responding to HIS question. He quickly escalated his comments to an attack on me personally and wouldn't allow me ot respond. During this, he stated that he would "refund (my) money" and that I was free to seek other lodging," all this because I responded to the question he asked. Realizing that it would have been inconvenient to move after bringing our belongings into the room, and that there may not be other rooms available, I informed him that I would hang up if he continued his abusive remarks. It's doubtful that he even heard me over his own infantile screaming. I wasn't about to allow myself to be subjected to further abuse and I promptly hung up. I wouldn't recommend that you consider subjecting yourself to the possibility of similar abuse. Consider patronizing another lodging facility not far away in the same price range that serves breakfast where you'll be greeted by a real person.

There is no real person at an office. It was listed in the details, but I hadn’t seen that and it surprised me. All good, though. The person who responded to my call was very professional and I got checked in with no issue.

Nice place to stay. Close to the national park

Excellent place to stay near airport!

Newly renovated and clean. A quiet neighborhood.

Very easy to use self checkin. The convenience was nice for going into Canada

Super cute hotel!! The room was very clean and the bed was comfy. It looks like it has all been recently remolded and if felt like a new hotel room.The check in process was all electronic and very easy. The location is perfect for exploring Voyageurs National Park. Definitely recommend if you are in the area.

The property is close to the Canadian border crossing and not far from Voyageurs National Park.

This was a nice place, close to the border, and the national park. No breakfast and some questionable tenants but that’s not the hotel fault. There is a grocery store across the street. Would stay again.

I loved the minimalist simplicity of the room. Yet it had everything I could possibly need for a great stay. Hotels in a great location. It was easy to get around. It was about four minutes from a well stocked grocery store and several restaurants. It was very, very clean.

Nice clean room with a wonderfully comfortable bed and linens. Right across the street from a fantastic restaurant and nice theater. Within easy driving distance of everything but not a really busy location.

Great location for our trip north. Clean rooms and a great shower. Only small issue was tv remote, only the up arrow button was functional. Across the street is the library which has really good breakfast and the BEST coffee

There was no staff. It was all self service, but it was still slick. Dining options on a Sunday evening in International Falls is limited. Our room was spacious and quiet. Great water pressure for showering.

Stayed here during the off-season for Voyageur National Park during the winter. For just a night, it was great. Quiet area, very tidy and neat for a motel, and absolutely Not run-down. I think the only thing I wish they had were either some kind of coffee/drink in the morning or breakfast? But not an inconvenience to knock off the 5 star

The hotel is a small, cute and comfortable motel, with a few amenities for a decent price. Their check in system is different in that there is no one on duty and we obtained a key with a code inside. We never saw anyone but the housekeeping crew came daily and did a great job. There was a way to contact staff if you needed to. No breakfast was provided but the rooms had a small amount of coffee you could make. The motel is close to breakfast options.

Older property but has been updated nicely. Clean, had a microwave, refrigerator and coffee maker. Check-in was different but worked out great. The restaurant across the street had great coffee and a nice selection for breakfast.

Self check-in process was super easy, property was absolutely fantastic at communication, everything has been updated recently, there is dining conveniently located across the street or up the road on main Street in downtown. There's a major grocery store down the road the other direction. Having a Keurig in the room was icing on the cake for me. Only critique, I would prefer more than two hot liquid cups in the room since they are disposable and don't get replaced the next day if you are staying for more than one night. Maybe real mugs instead? We will absolutely be staying there again when we come back to Frostbite Falls. Bonus, the location is far enough away from PCA that the smell does not make it to the hotel. Loved our stay!

Exactly what we needed. Needed a place to crah on our way to Canada. This fit the bill perfectly. Clean and well maintained. The Library Bistro across the street was the perfect spot for breakfast the next morning. Will definitely be back
