The room was small but it was just me staying there so it worked. The room was clean and in good condition. I liked the location close to stores and restaurants. I would stay there again if I'm down in the area.

Parking was right outside my door. Room was dated but clean. Everything in the room worked as it should. The young boy at the front desk seemed to be a little lost when I was trying to check-in. But the lady that came along was more than helpful. Great stay for the money. Will stay there again when in sedalia. Plenty of places to eat within walking distance as well as a large grocery store across the street. The microwave in the refrigerator in the room.Both worked excellent.

Pubic hair in tub, no soap, yellow towels(supposed to be white)stains on sheets and black specs also, floor had dirty qtip and crumbs on gloor and someones tags off clothes on top shelf where clothes hang. Asked for tefind and showed front desk the filth and refised to give refund even though I did not stay having to ask a friend to come get me over a hour each way. When taxi dropped me off they said dont go out by myself after datk because they TRAFFIC people out of there.

Got my money's worth.

Cleaner than most older motels. Small but was more than adequate for an overnight stay on a hunting trip. Heat/air unit was quiet and there was a good sized TV to watch. Plenty of restaurants nearby.
