The breakfast was amazing! The room was great - clean, comfortable. We loved it. So the cattle processing place across the street was a little distracting, but to me it just added to the ambience! Loved it and would recommend it!

The people are friendly. It's right off I70 in a quiet area. The breakfast was absolutely delicious with a great assortment and families travelling together will really enjoy the three - bed room. If I had to make a suggestion, it's that the bathroom door needs painting.

Older property, showing some deterioration of certain elements, but nothing that would affect comfort, safety, or security. Management is clearly concerned about maintaining their facilities to the best of their ability. One or two minor areas could be improved, but unusually clean, even in comparison to more expensive hotels. Nicely decorated. Breakfast is far superior to most, including “upscale” hotels. Overall very pleased with our stay, and glad we found it.
