Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
This motel is in shabby condition. I was awakened by voices next door at 3 a.m., and they were still going at 6 a.m. The shower head was good, but the tub slippery with no mat, bath treads, or grab bars, making it a bit treacherous. Bed was OK but sheets and towels were low quality. No hair dryer. Additional fee charged for using credit card. I wouldn't stay here again.

Good for a short stay

This is an older property, a motel with each room having an outside door to the parking lot. It is very dated in style and in need of some maintenance. On the other hand, there have been some updates, notably plenty of outlets to recharge electronic devices. We found the room to be very clean, and were pleasantly surprised to discover housekeeping had refreshed the room before our second night. The AC was noisy as I expected from a single room unit, but worked well and allowed the fan to stay on where it became white noise instead of cycling on and off every few minutes. I would not recommend this place for an extended stay, but it worked well for us as a place to sleep while attending a weekend event in the area.

A fantastic hotel for what you're paying for. It's a clean room, comfortable bed, microwave and fridge, in-room coffee, your parking is next to your room and very friendly staff. For $100 a night, it is the ONLY option in Taylorville. I wish they had more rooms, because they are often sold out on nights I need a place!
