Great service

Had a wonderful visit with some family and was happy to have such a nice, clean place to come back to each evening. My only negative was not having a lught switch by the entry door. Service was stellar.

The first thing I saw upon arrival was a homeless man pushing his cart of stuff across the parking lot. However, the front desk lady assured me it was a safe area. It was very quiet and I slept very well. Although the hotel is obviously very old and outdated, the room was one of the cleanest I have ever stayed in. Overall I had a pleasant stay.

This little hotel was OK. Room was clean, bed small but OK, breakfast was minimal but appreciated! Service was great. Receptionist was very helpful with Casper dining options. Seemed expensive for what you got, but it was fine for a quick overnighter.

great for a cheap night

As one reviewer said, it is the little hotel that could. The front desk woman was friendly when we checked in. The room was clean. There was big bottles of shampoo and conditioner which I appreciate for eco reasons. they were a bit hard to get product from, however. the breakfast was fine. Nothing spectacular but for the price, it was fine.

The property is very rundown. The curtains are wrinkled, it looked like the A/C unit was about to fall off the wall, the electrical outlets are a fire hazard, I plugged my phone charger into all the outlets and the plug fell out of all of them except on and it was still very loose. Outlets the our this loose internally can arc and cause a fire. I'm a retired electrical engineer. The only good thing was the staff was very friendly.

Pet friendly but nowhere for your pet to go.

We stayed for one night and we had a dog so the pet rent was cheap. $10 I think. But the dog run was absolutely disgusting…. Full of weeds and dog poop and it’s across the street in a yard. There is absolutely no place to take your dog to eliminate and they are located next to a liquor store. I was traveling with my mom and felt super unsafe. We had some workers or guests kept peeping into our windows and the door in the bedroom gave so much light it was hard to sleep. The bed was cozy and the rooms were nice and clean. I won’t stay again. Above all I felt very unsafe at this hotel.

This unique place is styled as a paddle-wheel riverboat with nautical themed displays in the lobby. I really did not understand why until I got there and saw it was on the bank of the North Platte River. Cool! Stephanie the clerk was really nice and had a list of nearby restaurants to choose from. The room was old, but clean and freshly painted. Bed & tub were nice. A/C was cool and quiet-running. We felt safe with their 24-hour desk clerks and no outside entrances except the lobby. When we got to our room the TV wouldn't turn on, and I suspected the remote batteries were bad. I took it to the lobby and they said they would send the maintenance man. I filled my ice bucket while I was there, and he was at the room door waiting before I got back! Breakfast was modest, but good, with fresh fruit. The best thing (besides the low price) was that all the staff actually seemed to care about personally providing good service, which is increasingly rare.
