Not fancy. Clean enough: no bugs noted; shower seemed clean; decent mattress. Way too large pillows - bring your own.

I reserved this property for our employees to stay in while working in Minneapolis. My employees went to check in and the lady(owner) wouldn’t let them check in because she said the rate that Expedia charged me wasn’t correct and she refuses to give rooms to me for that price. She was screaming at me. I asked her if I could pay the difference as there are no other properties in the town and she said no that she didn’t have any rooms. She hung up on me twice, very rude and wouldn’t even let me talk. I had to end up calling Expedia to get refund and booking rooms in Salina for my employees. Will never even attempt to stay at this property again.

The lock on the door worked fine. The coffee maker work3d fine. The bed held us up no matter how hard we worked it over. She enjoyed the extra pillow under her. The bed is just the right height to stand beside. The walls must have great insulation as we got no noise complaints.

A good handyman for repairs and proper touchups would make a large difference. The room was clean although the repairs needed gave a different feeling.

Marginal Value

It was a good price and reasonably clean. The room was hot when I arrived. The A/C was noisy and was not cooling the room. I talked with the manager. She said I did not set it correctly. She said to set it to 61 to get it to cool to 75. It still did not cool properly. The A/C outside drain was plugged, so the air inside was musty. Also, the light over the bed was not working. I did leave a message with the tip for the cleaning person.

I reserved one queen size bed for two nights for two people. The manager gave me a room with two queen size beds. We both found hairs and lint in our shhets the first night. The next afternoon the manager accused me of being dishonest because we used both beds in the room she gave us. She wanted me to pay more money for using both beds. I

When you're about the only game in town...

The room smelled very clean, but like college dorm bathroom clean... As in, one smelled lots of bleach that may be covering up something gross. From there, there were many flies in the room. The beds were far from new. The shower did not drain. The AC did not work properly unless it was set to freezing. I've stayed in worse places, and I might have to stay here again. But this is one of two hotels in a very small town, so it is what it is.

Just don’t

This is an old run down motel. The desk lady came out on dirty clothes and asked “What do you want” in a rude manner. The parking lot has old ice cream trucks in disrepair. There is a dilapidated school desk outside each door for seating and the one next to our room had a deep fryer sitting on it like someone lived there?!!! Overall a creepy experience I won’t book again!
