We got excited because friends from Indiana , that we haven’t seen for a couple years were camping in Warsaw. So, We rashly made the decision to come spend Sunday with them and surprise them. Less than an hour after booking we remembered my husband had cataract surgery scheduled on Monday at 7am , at the VA hospital in Leavenworth KS . We called the motel and explained and asked if we could cancel and get a refund, they said we had to go through Expedia. We contacted Expedia and they tried for a couple days to work with the motel , but the motel never responded.

It was convenient to what we were doing. The breakfast bar didn’t have any eggs or sausage and that’s one reason why I stayed there was for breakfast. Ck in staff was to hard to understand. It smelled really bad and they didn’t have the ac turned on when we got to our room so it was really hot especially when it was over 100 degrees outside. Glad I didn’t want to use the pool it was nasty.

We were able to check in a little early which was awesome since we had a wedding to get ready for. Room was clean enough, however walking around barefooted in the room turned our feet black. Was really disappointed with the "hot breakfast" selection. Even though breakfast was supposed to be from 7-10, by 8 am the only thing left was packaged coffee cake. Fortunately, lots of good restaurants nearby to choose from. All in all, not a terrible experience and would likely stay there again.

Poor cleanliness

The toilet had not been cleaned. There was urine all over the toilet seat. The tub had gritty sand the blankets were not very clean. I was worried about sleeping in the bed because all I could wonder was "did they actually wash these sheets/blankets".

Good motel.

It was clean. Bed comfortable. Basic. It was a busy July 4th weekend at the lake. So a little noisy. You never know who your neighbors will be. A very convenient location for us with family in the area. Not a great grab and go breakfast, but there are good options nearby. No elevator to second floor. Pool looked nice.

Okay for an overnighter

Staff is great, lobby is fine, place is easy to find and get in and out of. Bed was stiff and not so comfortable, had a hard time keeping a cool temp in the room, long black hair clumps inside the floor mat and one of the towels. TV and fridge were fine, didn't use the microwave. Small coffee pot was fine and appreciated the small pot over single cup brewing. Parking can be an issue with large pickups with trailers and boats, seems like a landing spot for weekend fishing trips.

We were put in a room where they knew air conditioning wasn't working when we checked in. They wanted us to crawl under it and reset it everytime it stopped working. Cigarette burns on floor and bedspread yellow curtains from smoke no eorking light bulb in lamp something all over bathroom door. Not good at all.

The staff were all very nice and friendly. The only thing that was a bit irritating is I chose that this place because it had a pool however upon arrival the pool was not open. Understand that things happen and need fixed but a little side note on the website would have been helpful. Other than that it was good
