The staff was very friendly and welcoming, but our room was dirty and hot. There was food and dirt in the floor, lights stains from cups still sticky on tables and toothpaste in the sink from previous occupant. It looked like maybe work was being done because there were pieces of wall on the floor in the hallways and it also kinda seemed like it was going under. No breakfast or Coffee, and that would have been fine m, but it was advertised to have it. Like I said, the staff was very friendly but I would never recommend someone to stay there

Good location. Needs maintenance and employees to help out inside and clean up the parking lot for a better appearance. They shouldn't let pickup & trailers take up the parking meant for cars. They have a gravel spot meant for them already. The entry doors need attention. That is the first impression that you get when walking in the place! The manager looks like he is shot from running around doing things. They need help and look more professional. First impression can be a bad thing or a good thing. Breakfast area should be open! At least someone to make coffee! I've never stayed anywhere that they didn't offer COFFEE!

Pleasant stay

Check in was very easy and painless. Check in staff was friendly. Room was clean and my only issue was the water had to run quite some time before it got slightly warmer than tepid. I needed a HOT shower after 8 hours drive, ha! Our handicapped room on 2nd floor was quiet. Watch the fridge as it freezes everything! It is just a short drive to the Mammoth Dig and grocery stores and just a short walk to DQ if you like fast food.

Horrible

First thing we noticed was water all over the floor coming from ice machine, mop bucket sitting in middle of floor, pool was out commission, dryer on second floor didn’t work. Breakfast area was dirty, juice machine out of order. The room had snot on Night stand. The door lock in room was hardly hanging on. Ac in room was plugged into an extension cord and leaking water. I would have never wasted my money on this hotel had I known. Sad to see a hotel in that bad condition for the price of one night.

This place was ok, but short staffed, in fact i only saw one person. Our air conditioning didn’t work, we got our room down to 88 degrees. Being pet friendly people were walking their dog late at night, barking in the hallway at 3am is not a good thing.

Very uncomfortable beds on metal frames that squeaked whenever anyone moved. Made for a restless night. Staff was very friendly and check-in was quick. Town has extremely limited dining options after 7:30 which hampered our enjoyment. There's a Dairy Queen and Subway open after dark, plus a couple bars. Not a city we'd stay in more than a night, and would probably get a different hotel with quality beds.

It’s unfortunate that I have to rate this hotel so low. The location is nearly perfect and the staff were nice and helpful (when they were around). I had to switch rooms on my second night because there were way too many issues. The AC decided to stop working my second night (it was 95). My second bed would loudly squeak at any movement. The fridge would have to be set to max on ‘cool’ just to work and it would hum very loudly. The toilet wouldn’t flush correctly. Way too many issues to have for a couple nights. The staff were very accommodating and gave me and my partner a second room with a working AC. That worked fine until everything else didn’t. The toilet didn’t work properly *again*, the fridge would leak water, and it seems some plumbing issue caused black (hair?) soot to come into our sink in the morning. The breakfast they advertised is nothing more than bagels, cereal, and English muffins…that’s it. The juice machine would never be filled and water would come out. The coffee had nothing to add but sugar and half and half. They had a waffle machine that was taken apart. I guess some food is better than nothing, but *everybody* was more than disappointed. Thankfully the staff member on check in told me how little they had so I could get breakfast elsewhere. The vending machine was out of order. Ice machine you’re told to ‘not fill coolers.’ The pool would overflow and be too small. Just a terrible experience.
