The property is very rundown. The curtains are wrinkled, it looked like the A/C unit was about to fall off the wall, the electrical outlets are a fire hazard, I plugged my phone charger into all the outlets and the plug fell out of all of them except on and it was still very loose. Outlets the our this loose internally can arc and cause a fire. I'm a retired electrical engineer. The only good thing was the staff was very friendly.

Pet friendly but nowhere for your pet to go.

We stayed for one night and we had a dog so the pet rent was cheap. $10 I think. But the dog run was absolutely disgusting…. Full of weeds and dog poop and it’s across the street in a yard. There is absolutely no place to take your dog to eliminate and they are located next to a liquor store. I was traveling with my mom and felt super unsafe. We had some workers or guests kept peeping into our windows and the door in the bedroom gave so much light it was hard to sleep. The bed was cozy and the rooms were nice and clean. I won’t stay again. Above all I felt very unsafe at this hotel.

Older motel being gentrified! They’ve invested in good beds, good linens and clean rooms. The staff are friendly and helpful as they welcome guests. Breakfast had a good variety of breads, cereals, yogurts, etc.

This unique place is styled as a paddle-wheel riverboat with nautical themed displays in the lobby. I really did not understand why until I got there and saw it was on the bank of the North Platte River. Cool! Stephanie the clerk was really nice and had a list of nearby restaurants to choose from. The room was old, but clean and freshly painted. Bed & tub were nice. A/C was cool and quiet-running. We felt safe with their 24-hour desk clerks and no outside entrances except the lobby. When we got to our room the TV wouldn't turn on, and I suspected the remote batteries were bad. I took it to the lobby and they said they would send the maintenance man. I filled my ice bucket while I was there, and he was at the room door waiting before I got back! Breakfast was modest, but good, with fresh fruit. The best thing (besides the low price) was that all the staff actually seemed to care about personally providing good service, which is increasingly rare.

Great hotel for the price! As another review mentioned it’s dated, but clean and safe. First floor was a little loud due to lobby & ice machine nearby and woke me up a few times in the night. I was impressed by breakfast options and quality. Staff was all wonderful, kind, and helpful! As a woman traveling alone I felt very safe in the area. Everyone around was nice & courteous. Great location, just a few minutes drive to everywhere I wanted to go in town. Loved being right on the river!

Sketchy part of town. Very shabby exterior. Was not told until check in that they needed a card for damage deposit in case I did something like ruin the towels! Stained carpet, yellow stained towels, yellow drips down the wall. No handicapped parking or accessible ramps or room. Couch blocking hall. People hanging around playing cards.

The hotel could do with some serious updates, but our room was clean and the staff was great. The outside of the building was another story… a couple of boarded up windows near the entrance and badly in need of paint. It’s not a great neighborhood either. I will not likely stay here again.

We arrived late just looking for a place to stay overnight before continuing our trip. It is off the highway, but quiet. They have 24/7 desk service which is what we needed. She was very friendly and helpful. The room was basic. The shower had great water pressure and temperature. It was clean and the bed was comfortable, not luxurious, but we slept good. There was only one nightstand. We wish there had been one on each side. Breakfast was offered, but very basic and not a lot of room to sit and eat. I would’ve taken it back to the room. The parking lot was full when we got there at 11:30pm and almost empty when we left at 9am.
