Great little hotel at a great price with parking a few feet from your door. Pet fee only $15 for the stay (not per day) with nice grassy area to take them out. Friendly staff, restaurant on site, easy walking distance to other rooms, nice covered outdoor sitting area with grill, sink, etc...

Clean and simple

We were stuck in a winter storm on our way to Denver, needed a few hours of sleep before we could go any further. It’s not fancy and the beds aren’t super comfy but it was clean, had some modern features in bathroom and was a good place to lay our heads for a few hours. I would stay again if going through the area.

Check in was quick and easy, I’ve stayed places like the Sofitel etc in Chicago and I appreciated the clean, nice and cool room. Bathroom was updated, I liked the colors compared to the stale colors most use, parking by your door and the actual ability to open a window for fresh air. We drove for 9 hours and slept well. GREAT value for your money and pet friendly. Cute little town with the general small town staple stores and a really good authentic restaurant. Will definitely be staying on my way to Denver again!

The owner will have you pay the difference of the “deal” you’re getting on travel sites. It’s not that much more and it’s understandable.

Never again…

This is the worse place we have ever stayed in. The heater didn’t warm the room/bathroom or us efficiently. The tv was fuzzy and wifi didn’t work. The coffee was horrid. Definitely not worth the money!

Just here for the night. Very basic but all we needed was a bed and the bed is comfortable. Could not get the TV to come on, we like to get the evening news before turning in so we do not even know what channels it gets

sehr netter Empfang an der Rezeption. Es war sehr ruhig, nur noch zwei andere Gäste dort. Man sollte Essen und Trinken am besten dabei haben; dort ist kaum bis nichts zu finden. Man kann hinter dem Motel schön durch die Straßen laufen. Das Zimmer war ganz sauber, neu gemacht und für den Preis wirklich ok. Die Klimaanalge war nciht ganz so stark und es war sehr heiß in dem Zimmer und das Bett war zu weich. Aber alles in allem für einen Zwischenstopp wirklich ok.
