It is moremy fault, but as the old saying goes, "you get what you pay for". Wanted to save money but next time I'm in Salina, I'll spend the money for a better hotel. The was a total joke and the orange juice dispenser was a laugh.

Check-in was fine. The motel gave me a ground floor room I liked that. I liked the room close to the entrance and exit. They had a great breakfast and good coffee. I stayed one night would use the motel again if I was in the area again.

The room was okay, check in was a little odd as it was after 3:30 and they had to run around to find a room that was clean. The bathroom was super small and funky smelling. Beds were firm and the sheets had slight staining. It was extremely noisy overnight. Slamming doors and maybe road noise? Overall it was an average stay, I don’t think I’ll book again.
