About this property
Welcome to Northwoods Motel
Northwoods Motel, located at W8500 Flambeau Ave in Ladysmith, Wisconsin, offers a basic lodging option with a 3.2-star rating. The motel supports pet-friendly and kid-friendly accommodations, making it suitable for travelers with families or pets. It is positioned conveniently for visitors interested in sightseeing and outdoor recreation within the Ladysmith area.
Despite its convenient location, guest experiences have highlighted significant challenges with cleanliness and maintenance.

Other concerns include persistent heating malfunctions, entry points for insects and spiders, and noisy hallways that disrupt restful stays. These factors suggest shortcomings in facility upkeep and management responsiveness.
While Northwoods Motel may appeal to budget-conscious travelers seeking proximity to local attractions, potential guests should weigh these considerations carefully. The motel's pet-friendly and family-oriented amenities provide some value, yet the overall guest experience may be compromised by the reported hygiene and noise factors.

Disgusting!!! The water is literally yellow, and bathtub had hair and other debris backing up into bathtub, outdated rooms, heat doesn’t shut off, has holes from the outside by air conditioning, bugs, spiders, cob webs/ spider webs ALL over rooms, people yelling all night long up and down the hallways, banging on walls, dirty, sticky floors, hallways stink, and management doesn’t care what you have to say when bringing issues up and will cut you off to give you an excuse as to why things are that way. Outside door was extremely difficult to open with key card/ broken and IF it did it would get stuck and you’d have to force it open.
