Not all that nice.

The hotel has nice beds, and clean bathroom. Breakfast looked unappetizing so I just had a banana. There is a rather strong odor in the hotel. That was not pleasantl.

After spending the day at the fair it was great to be greeted by a friendly and knowledgeable desk clerk. Corinna was very helpful and welcoming. The first impression starts at the front desk and she made us happy. Thank you.

No to outside noise

Overall it was a nice stay. It was super close to the state fair which is why we were there. The main problem was outside noise. I sleep with ear plugs and I still heard police sirens several times throughout the night. I think soundproof windows would be a great investment.

Adequate

It was an ok hotel for the price. The interior of the room was clean and they did change our room for a different one when the toilet began to leak from the bottom. The halls of the hotel have moldy, stale smell. 6th street seems to be a drag racing strip in the city and we were up most of the night with cars racing.

I liked that it is located close to several historical areas. The hotel is old and bathrooms could use some proper repairs around the tub.

For the price, this was fine. If you are looking for a pool, or other amenities, they are lacking. Location allowed me to walk to the Lincoln Museum, Library and Pub/Restaurant. Walking down 5th street was a little sketchy, 6th was better. Front desk fought me when I requested late check out due to rental car delay-but last at front desk was nice enough to go up to my room and gather my suitcase and stuff and put behind front desk.

Given the reviews, I had higher expectations. The room was fine, but there was garbage behind the bathroom door. The previous occupant had a 6am alarm set, which went off during our stay, and housekeeping knocked on our door at 7:58am. (!!??)
