Disappointed

We chose this hotel because of the location, price and availability on hotels.com. We would not stay here again as it was not comfortable, it was dirty and smelled like cigarette smoke in our non smoking room. There were cigarette burns in the bedspreads, blankets and sheets.

Slept fully clothed because the room did not feel clean. Bathroom was dirty and there was an unpleasant odor. The only upside was that the staff were very friendly.

Price. Price & Price. It was CHEAP! We knew that therefore we did not put any overinflated expectations on the property. We were disappointed when we found a FULL Bes in-lieu of a Queen as advertised. We called the desk and he said.. ugh “yeah they all say that”. Although he did offer to refund my money if I wanted to go somewhere else. So I called the place right down the road and it was literally $130 MORE before taxes etc. So we stayed. We were just sleeping and the mattress was firm and fairly comfortable.

Great little place to stay for the money. Driving from New Jersey to Colorado and needed a place to crash for the night and we were pleasantly surprised! Super clean, the man at the front desk was super polite and courteous even though we didn’t get there until about 2:30 am, showers worked great, perfect place to stop. Will definitely stay again next time we pass through

The hotel was in a small town, it was located near the highway. It is dated, the furnishings look like old, previously used items, mismatched snd a little shabby. Our bathroom had a large hole in the wall behind the toilet and a poorly done patch job on either side of the toilet. The toilet leaked, so anytime you flushed, water went all over the floor. Obviously explains the hole and patch work. There wasn't any Kleenex, nor was there a pot for the coffee maker, not necessarily deal breakers, but strange as there were the little packets of coffee available. This place served its purpose since it was just a place to sleep. The cost was just under 70 dollars for a Saturday night which I find pretty excessive for such a shabby and outdated place.

Great Location (just off I-65). Very reasonable accommodations. Check in staff was friendly, helpful and attentive. Only recommendation is to ask for a room in the back away from the road. It’s a highway (at 1 am when I pulled in, there wasn’t a noise in sight but at 6 am the road comes alive with semi’s, large trucks and cars). If your room is in front, wear earplugs.

Better than you'd expect for forty bucks.

The good: Room was clean, bed was exceptionally comfortable, HVAC worked well. Perfect for when you just need a place to sleep. The bad: Older property, and it shows. Fresh paint, but drywall was badly beaten and patched. Facility is smoke free, but you can detect a faint tobacco smell.

From the outside this place was a dump. Once i got inside everything was clean even nice. The guy that worked there seemed like he'd already died and no one had told him, but he was really friendly and attentive to my needs.
