A welcome place to land after 12 hours of driving. We arrived much later than planned - close to midnight - but received a friendly and efficient greeting and a quick change of rooms that made it easier to bring in our large amount of luggage. 24 hour shop, Keurig in basic but very clean and comfortable room, breakfast, and location within easy reach of freeway, gas, and a Starbucks made this a great choice for night one of a cross-country drive.

Give yourself a treat!

The stay was wonderful. The free breakfast every morning was amazing! So much delicious hot food, cold food, pasteries and fruit. So many choices and it changed every day!The water slides were fantastic. An added bonus was a gelato shop with the best Italian gelato flavors. Yum! The location was wonderful and the hotel was beautiful and very clean. Also a 24/7 lobby store. Highly recommend!

We were there on a Sunday night and had time to swim Monday morning before check out. This location has been there longer than I can remember as I grew up in Kearney and can honestly say it has only improved in time which I find is usually the opposite in most cases. The staff was welcoming and the breakfast was perfect!
