Finding the hotel was a challenge. Need better markings on the road. The breakfast was good but people were confused with the egg cups in the refrigerator and one person put their egg in the waffle iron instead of the flat iron farther down the counter. They had "build your omelet", so after you poured the egg on the flat round grill, you scooped cheese, ham or sausage onto it and close the grill. It took a while to cook so people were backed up. They did have boiled eggs, yogurt, make your own waffle, breads and cereal with milk too. Accommodations were excellent. Staff wonderful.

Short get away

Place was nice friendly staff with lots of local information. Bed could use an upgrade but we slept fine. Breakfast was a nice touch with the omelette maker with choice of ham or sausage and cheese to top it, we would definitely stay on our next trip to the area. We also liked the town and walked to the park for music.

Pretty basic. Got the job done for a last minute trip, though. Not much to the breakfast that was gluten free. Convenient to RW’s West End commercial district.

I’ve stayed at Nichols for the past few months often and on while working in the Redwing area. I’ve been to almost every hotel in town and I always go back to Nichols because it’s just so friendly convenient and clean. Great staff, very courteous, great cleaning staff as well.. just can’t go wrong with this place. I’ve never had a bad or even questionable experience there. I love it. Also, it’s in walking distance to a couple of pubs and bars and restaurants so that that’s a huge plus. Love it love it love it go in there again next week.
