Nice, clean, serves a breakfast on the go

The girl that checked us in was super friendly and professional. We had no idea what to do there as we were just passing through so she suggested some local spots including a Husker tailgate party at a church that was a hoot! This is one of the best motels we’ve stayed in - very clean, reasonable, they take pride in what they do, serve an on the go breakfast, comfortable beds and they obviously value guests. We’ll book it again if we are in Valentine!

The motel is close to the highway that has truck traffic going all night. When we arrived at our room the door was open and we had a couple of flies. It must not be rare as the motel has a fly swatter in the room. The room was clean and furniture was fine. Motels with doors open to the parking lot always make me less secure than hotels with lobbies and inside doors.
