Clean and Easy

This locally owned motel is kept clean and up to date and is close to many food options. Parking right outside the room is super convenient. I’m very picky and I highly recommended staying here!

Comfortable place

I was advised by friends to look further out from my Granite Falls event. Good reviews steered me to the Viking Inn. Check in and out was smooth, the room clean and comfortable with hot water! The only weird negative was that my room was through the laundry room. However, the dryer gave me a place to put stuff on until I got through the door.

The Viking has had renovation work done, and is ideal for workers who are on extended stay in or near Montevideo, with an ample refrigerator and microwave. The artwork for each room is themed, and it's charming that the management also fosters local cats, and you can say hello to them during your visit.

Stay here

The owner was very friendly and helpful. The staff was excellent and the room was very clean. It is in the process of being updated fresh paint, and the new paintings on the wall. The towels were above par for a well priced motel.
