Pleasantly surprised. No frills. But bed was super comfy. Room was impeccably clean with a large TV. It’s directly (very close) next to a truck stop. The trucks were loud. Get a room on the west side of the building if you can.

Debra

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was not in ideal condition. Especially the bathroom. The overall condition of the room was not BAD but definitely could use improvement. The owner/manager was very helpful and pleasant. The breakfast was satisfactory. I shortened my stay by one day to return home early, even though I could not be refunded for that.

We had to switch rooms when we got there because of roaches. The second room we moved to also had roaches. Shower curtains in both rooms had mold on them. I would not recommend staying here. The staff was very helpful.

The hotel is a little run down, but the bed was suprisingly SUPER comfortable and it was very clean. If you are in Benton, I would stay here again rather than making the drive to Marion or Mt. Vernon, and the price was good.

The office person was very nice and accommodating, the room was large with a comfortable bed, nicely decorated. More choices for breakfast. Conveniently located off the highway. The only thing I did not like was that the side entrance was not secure. It was left unlocked, not like most motel/motels that need a key card for entry. Also fairly priced.

I think this is a renovated property not run by a chain, and so it has some originality and quirks to it. The room was large and clean, and the bed was terrific for a good night's sleep. Microwave and small refrig, hair dryer, everything I needed.

This place was extremely cheap. It was extremely clean. It didn’t smell like marijuana like most hotel rooms too. They were slot machine, machines, free alcohol and it was very comfortable and I enjoyed my time there. My wife and I felt safe and it was great as we went and watched our kid play Division I college football. It’s awesome to have a place that doesn’t break the bank and is comfortable and has stuff for you to do.
