Lincoln Hotels

Good business hotel to Hilton standards

I have a 1 year old son and traveling with him is not easy. I forgot to pack some milk for him for bedtime. My husband went down to the front desk and asked if they knew where we could buy some. They opened the kitchen/breakfast room and let my husband fill a sippy cup with milk, on the house. Thank you for small acts of kindness :) The staff gets a 4 overall because the cook during breakfast was very rude. We came down to eat breakfast at 8:45 a.m., (it's served until 10 am, so we had plenty of time) and when we asked when he would have more biscuits and gravy, he replied, "No, I'm not making any more gravy. Eggs are the last thing I'm making." He came out with eggs and biscuits 15 minutes later and never did make more gravy. We were not the only ones unhappy with the discovery, either. I considered talking to the manager, but why ruin the trip over one grumpy employee?

Very nice staff, early breakfast for travelers (6am) and the Applebees next door was very nice to us

We had a nice stay, but our room was pretty small, though well kept.

I had a very pleasant experience at Super 8. The room was nice and clean and very comfortable.

It's still a Super 8, but for a quick couple of days in Lincoln to see a game, it's in a great location, very clean and has friendly staff. The floors are a little squeaky and you'll want to call to confirm your preferences (non-smoking, floor, accessibility).

Staff was extraordinary, from the shuttle driver to the front-desk people to the maintenance men in the hallways. Room was exceptionally nice--microwave, frig, tiled bath, flatscreen TV, and comfy bed. Quiet stay in a charming area of the city. Perfect for my business trip; would choose it again!

Attended Thespian Fesival at UNL for a week. Quicker internet An average travel experience

Hotel/staff was fine. I was very disappointed to see the rate I paid thru [...]was $15-$20 more than a special being offered by the Hotel on a sign in front. Of course payment was already made so nothing I could do. I will be interested to see if [...]allows this on website.

Nothing really fancy but full of amenities and filled our needs. We weren't at the motel much but it was clean and the personel were helpful and friendly. I would recommend given the very resonable price.

The room was clean and the maid sevice excellent. The chair to the desk was low and uncomfortable, and the couch was old and uncomfortable. The breakfast that was included was also excellent. The hotel is located close to restaurants, a grocery and a gas station. It is also close to expressways to the airport, downtown and most commercial locations.

We arrived after midnight so did not get to enjoy this hotel as much as we would have liked. We planned on a visit to the university and this hotel was close enough for our needs. Very comfortable beds, good breakfast, and the shower had just the right amount of pressure. Staff was friendly and efficient upon checkin.

The room was extremely clean, nice, and comfy but the fitness center was really bad. My husband hurt his back trying to use one of the machines and we still have half of our cross country trip to make! We didn't eat the breakfast because we decided to sleep in. The pool and hot tub were a nice temperature and they seemed to keep those up. The location wasn't too far from the University, but not in downtown area. Staff was really welcoming! They were remodeling when we go there... so the place smelled like paint, etc. At least they are upgrading!

It was the smallest room I have stayed in, but I was thankful to be able to travel with my dog. My daughter and granddaughter were also along.When we opened the port-a-crib there was no room. We could not have gotten in the room with all the stuff a toddler needs, or we think we need, without the cart the hotel provides. Needing to walk the dog, we found the parking lot full of broken glass and dangereous walk to grassy areas. I know that is early spring, but the lot should be cleaned as soon as possible. The cushion under the window is a little thread bare. Maybe a sheet should be offered if someone needs to sleep on it.

Staff are friendly and accommodating. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was great.

The hotel was clean, the staff friendly, and the breakfast was great - they had waffles, jimmy dean breakfast sandwiches, and yougurt! Was quiet, but the beds were not the most comfortable ):

This is the third time I've stayed at this hotel. First, and foremost, I have found the staff to be the best I've seen out of all my different hotel experiences. Each visit I've been greeted with a friendly face for my quick check in and I can't remember one stay where staff hasn't been the first to greet me in the morning and to make pleasant conversation. With children, the draw for us was the 24 hour pool. The pool did have some issues with too much chlorine, but I've found that to be the case at many hotels. Still, an issue they might want to look into. The rooms are great for us. We stay in the queen rooms, with two beds, and a pull out couch. With the nearby Hy-Vee (less than a block away) the in room refrigerator and microwave come in handy for us. I've always found the rooms to be clean. We did have an issue with the tub drain not lowering to take a bath, but I just stuffed a wash cloth around it and it was fine. There's no doubt had I contacted the front desk, they would have fixed the problem. It just wasn't that big of a deal to me. The hotel appeared to be full two of our stays, and I had no problem with any noise. I saw a comment about the breakfast, and I have to say, in comparison to other hotels I've stayed at, I love their offerings. The hours are longer than most hotels (it went until noon on the Sunday morning we were there) and all the kids are able to find something they like. There were juices, coffee, rolls, muffins, english muffins, several kinds of bagels, oatmeal, teas, milk, several different kinds of cereals, fresh fruit, yogurt, pancakes and waffles (the frozen toaster kind), hard boiled eggs, and biscuits with sausage and gravy. (At least, that's all I can remember.) We did have an issue with one of the key cards being a little touchy, but we had two cards and the other worked fine, so again, I didn't make an issue of it. On our other stays, we've had no problem with them at all. Overall, for the price I'm very happy with this hotel. In fact, it's the only hotel we stay at now when we're in Lincoln. As a side note, I did hear several people on this stay, mention that they were unable to get smoking rooms, or were told they were getting a smoking room, but then did not. The hotel might want to look into getting rid of them all, or dedicating a few more rooms to smoking. Personally, we had a first floor room near one of the end doors, so it wasn't a big deal for me to go a few steps to go outside. I could, however, see how someone would be frustrated with being told that they were getting a smoking room, only to find out they weren't. I have, and will continue, to recommend this hotel to my family and friends.

We needed a place to stay for a couple of days while visiting family in town. For us this was a real find near the middle of everything we needed.

We plan to stay again the next time we are in Lincoln, Nebraska. Very close to the Mall.

The room was amazing and loved the pool. Will definitly stay again.

Pleasant, quiet, staff was nice.

The staff was very friendly and wanted to accomodate our needs. [...]

Nice hotel, staff was friendly. Breakfast was good with a lot of variety. A little expensive for the hotel, but we stayed on a busy weekend, and I think all the hotels raised their prices.

We had some problems getting the room warm enough, but we figured it out after the first night. The "Cupboard" where you could pay for small food items was a plus, as were the free laundry and fitness room, which we didn't use, but they looked nice. Room with small kitchen also a plus. Could've used another comfy chair for a suite; had one recliner, a desk chair, and a straight chair..

Rest and quiet time was needed for us.

About what I would have expected at this price -- which was fine. I don't need a fancy hotel. A clean bathroom, a shower that works well, a comfortable bed, an Internet connection, and plentiful electrical outlets are pretty much all I need. This motel had all of that, so I was content. The proprieter, Mr. Patel, was very friendly and eager to please. That was a bonus.

Relatively new hotel located near the airport. Clean rooms and Holiday Inn Express hot breakfast in the morning is a time and money saver.

We traveled to Lincoln Saturday afternoon for a little getaway with the kids. We had an early Sunday morning volleyball tournament and wanted to sleep in and not have to drive on questionably slick roads. The kids swam and we relaxed in a very clean & comfortable hotel. The breakfast was wonderful...so much to choose from...and the manager was very friendly and helpful.

The Room was great, I did think it was a little weird that it had a kitchenette and everything for the price, it seems more like a place you would stay for a while. Over all it was good though, The only issues I had was you have to be 21 to check in there, even if you paid for the room and everything!

Very clean, quiet, and affordable hotel. We would definitely stay there again.

I would really like a more firm mattress. Parking is 9 dollars a day. Apart froom that, everything else is good.

My family and I were in town for a high school graduation. Between the parties and graduation we were not in our room a lot. When we checked in the front desk gave us a good view of the capitol since we had a young child. Thought that was nice. The hotel was in walking distance of the church we used and the location of the graduation. We did have to pay for parking but I believe most downtown hotels are the same way. They do have a valet but was more expensive than the parking garage that is connected to the hotel. The only true negative experience I had were the feather pillows. But that is my preference. My husband was fine with them. Overall we had a nice stay and would stay there again.

I don't think the motel would have been worth the non-internet price. However, the discount we got made it worth it. Room was a nice size, very airy because we could open the window. Shower and bathroom was clean and large. Great TV reception which was not blocked by the desk area where my husband was doing computer work. Breakfast was very nice, served on real dishes and real silverware. Lots of fresh cut-up fruit and real oatmeal already made. Biscuits & grave and chicken steaks. Would have like scrambled eggs and sausage. They need more luggage carts - had to make 4 trips to get our stuff to the room because the 2 carts were being used. This is a large motel for only having 2 carts. Fresh coffee & cookies.

Great breakfast with real plates and silverware. Wonderful value for the price.

We were extremely disappointed in this accommadation. The room was in poor repair; chipped paint, tissue dispenser removed and a gaping was left, no tissues supplied. The WI- fi did not work, we had to secure the drape to the door handle to assure privacy. Would recommend you drop this from your list. It was more like what we would expect from a $29.95 accommodation.

Toilet lid was falling off of toilet. There was toilet paper stuck in a whole in the bathroom wall...not really sure why? The beds were lopsided, the tub in the bathroom did not drain after we took a shower. We did use this motel as a very last resort. Its pretty disgusting, but if you need a place to crash after a game and plan on sleeping in your clothes it is okay!!

Friendly staff was welcoming. Unclean corridors made me think I made a bad choice. But room was clean and quiet. Hair dryer, iron & ironing board, safe, fridge, all clean.

Carpet disgusting, dirty towels to greet, curtains with holes, room obviously saved for discount occupant.

room was clean and quiet. staff were friendly. bed was comfortable.

Christmas Day breakfast was leftover day old donuts. Could have planned better breakfast item selections. Maybe some non-wheat items. Wi-fi worked very well in the room. Cable TV was good. Dust mites in the pillows--affected my asthma--could not sleep on the bed. Air was dry due to no humdity in the heater's non-thermostat system. Need to upgrade heating.cooling system.

The hotel is super clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The decor is contemporary. It is also nice to have a great to a wide variety for breakfast

My wife and I requested a king bed when we purchased the room, however when we got to our room we found it to be a double queen. I was disappointed at first and called the front desk. The manager spoke with me and appologized for the inconveinence but the room I booked had a stay-over so she offered bottles of water or snacks which might make our stay more comfortable. They were very helpful.

The Staybridge was perfect for us! The standard suite had just enough room for the two of us to be comfortable and not crowded! The staff was very friendly and the breakfast was great!

We just used the hotel for a one night stay. The hotel was clean and had everything they advertised. The pool and hot tub were nice. The breakfast was perfect for us since we were traveling and didn't want to search for a place to eat. It was exactly what we wanted.

It was better than I expected. The gentleman at the front desk was super super nice. I didn't get his name. He handed out Easter treat which I thought was real nice, didn't expect that ! I would stay there again.

The hotel is great. The only problem was that we were put in a room next to the boiler room and it went off at night often. It sounded like a low fog horn. The walls were very thin and we could hear the neighbors talking on the other side of us.

The room was very clean so 5 stars for the cleaning staff. the counter staff are friendly and the flyer information center was fully stocked as we found several places that were of interest to us right there in the lobby. Pillows were a little small but overall Howard Johnson "You Rock".

If at all possible choose another hotel. Beware of booking hotel room as I ended up staying in a smoking room and was never asked if I prefered smoking or non smoking. This hotel is definitely not worth the price you pay to stay there.
