About

Highland Country Inn is a no-frills, family-run motel on South Milton Road in Flagstaff, a straightforward option for anyone using the city as a base before or after a South Rim trip. It won't win points for style, but it consistently earns high marks for the basics done right: clean rooms, comfortable beds, and a quiet, safe stay.

What to expect

Rooms are simple but well-kept, with some units including a minifridge and microwave, plus free Wi-Fi and free parking right outside your door. Reviewers repeatedly single out how spotless the rooms are and how easy check-in and access are, with several guests noting they've rebooked on return trips to Flagstaff.

Rating: 4.2 stars from over 500 Google reviews
Amenities: free Wi-Fi, free parking, minifridge and microwave in select rooms
Location: 223 S Milton Rd, close to NAU and downtown Flagstaff, with quick access from I-17

This is budget-friendly, practical lodging rather than a boutique experience — good for road-trippers who want a clean, reliable place to sleep before continuing on to the canyon, about 80 miles north.

Great place to stay if you're gonna spend time exploring. The room is basic but comfortable. Fridge, microwave and coffee maker all worked well and were more than adequate for our 2 night stay. They don't allow pets but if you need any extra of something, the staff were accommodating. It was also very clean, and the beds and pillows were comfortable. Outlets could be a challenge if you need more than 3. It's definitely a good bang for the buck especially because its close to everything and you can walk as parking can be challenging in the downtown Flag area.

We had a great stay at Highland country inn. I dont normally post reviews but this place deserves a great one. I was pleasantly surprised with the microwave, mini fridge and coffee maker (huge plus IMO). The room was very clean!! The bed comfortable. We didn't hear any road noise at all through the night, which was great for me as I am a light sleeper. I would absolutely recommend anyone traveling through Flagstaff to stay here.

It was okay. Floors dirty. Spilt some water and wiped it up and rag was black. Shower was decent. Weird person in parking lot smoking and saying random things. Parking lot is way too small. Room decent size. Overall not a bad motel. But not great either.

It doesn't get any better. Incredible value in a family owned motel. Perfect location near NAU and downtown. Room was spotless. Beds were comfy. Front desk staff was friendly. Nothing fancy but if you want a great value, super clean, and safe, this is it.

This motel is run by an Asian Indian couple. He is very friendly. Her; not so much. Both have strong accents you may only understand 15% of. You can smell that signature Indian scent at the front desk, but not in your motel room. It was very clean to both the sight and smell. Though they're likely Hindu, they respect the American tradition of a Christian bible in the motel room's bedside drawer. Their price is competitive. I would stay here again.
