This motel was horrible. The outside of the building is in bad repair. The room itself had a dirty sink and we found a hair hanging from the shower. The mattress and box spring were stained. We made a horrible mistake by staying here. We would NOT recommend this motel to anyone.

Ist room not cleaned, smelled like wet ash tray. 2nd room marginaly better. Pubic hair on shower, dirty toolest, dead flies everywhere, bathroom,window sill, sink. Swayed about a dozen flies, by morning dozen more. Coming in from bathroom hole in celing. Floor dirty, one step in socks, back to shoes. Bed looked to be slept in. Used my sleeping bag instead. Pile cigarette buts outside door. Room smeled funny, may explain why flys were dying. Outside looked okay, rust holes in step. Nice host.

AVOID STAYING HERE.

Quick Overview: The room had a flea infestation, within 10 minutes of being in the room (on the bed) a flea bit my neck. I informed the manager and he proceeded to yell at me for kindly asking for a new room and blamed me for bringing the fleas. ​I left immediately after this horrible interaction, thankfully there was space at the nearby motel. On top of everything else, the room itself was HORRIBLE there were stains on carpets, lots of bugs (mosquitoes, flies, and fleas), the queen bed was really two twin beds pushed together, and the shower looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a long time. This was the room that the manager called his "best room" if that gives you any perspective on what the other rooms might look like. Given the rude nature of the owner, I HIGHLY doubt that he will address the flea issue. There are other motels nearby that are only $10 more and SIGNIFICANTLY better quality

Most disgusting place I’ve ever seen. Urine all over the bathroom. Filthy and disgusting. Could not stay there. Went to take to clerk about a refund and he said would have to go through Expedia. Have tried calling, a virtual agent and emailing. Cannot talk to a person and no response. This place should not even be on Expedia as a choice. If I don’t receive a refund I will never use them again. It was late at night and ended up sleeping in the car

Very fair price, bed was comfortable but The room was very dated, return vents pulled from wall, poor cable and it looked like they also rented monthly rooms. Ok to stay if you just need sleep.

Drive to next hotel

They need to update this facility. Mold growing in the bathroom from missing our deteriorating caulking. The carpet looked as if a dog just peed on it. Beds are hard as a rock and pillows are flat. No way to fluff them either… sorry for the price I paid differently not worth the stay.

Cheap Stay—You Get What You Pay For

We have stayed here before when we were headed west. It was okay then, but it has slowly deteriorated. The outside is crumbling and there’s too much scattered in the back. (In fact there were about 13 toilets back there. I don’t think they rent out the back units, so people don’t have to look at that. They have a pool, but it hasn’t had water in it for the three years we’ve stayed there. The fence and gate around the pool are also falling apart. Our room had been cleaned, but the carpet made my feet dirty. The beds were okay, but my pillows smelled of cigarette smoke. It was a non-smoking room. Many things in the bathroom need repaired or cleaned. The toilet had a ring around it, the ceiling was filled with water spots, the wall with the pipe leading to the toilet had a lot of broken plaster, etc. The charge for the room was very reasonable; thus, the reason for staying there. However, we will not be back.

The hotel is what you'd expect. It was an inexpensive, decent place to stay as we traveled through Nebraska. The ice maker didn't work and all room furnishings were dated. Looks like major maintenance, or maybe removal(?) of the pool, but adequate for a late check in and early departure. Office staff was friendly.
