Filthy $ Extremely Run Down. Like A Scary Movie!

Most horrible place we ever stayed in 42 yrs! 1st room had crusty semen stains on the sheet & under pillow, and used towel & wash cloth hanging on backside of bathroom door. Floors were filthy & not vacuumed because it had sand/dirt around the beds. Very gross rooms. Only one other guest at the entire place. Felt like we were in a scary movie set. There is not another place around and being very tired we had to stay. But we left early morning so we could just put it behind us.

We were there for the College Baseball World Series in Omaha (40 minutes away) The place was old, but clean and comfortable and wifi, shower, etc all worked. The price was fantastic. Not luxury, but a VERY GOOD DEAL!

It was just below average one night stay. Uncomfortable beds and outdated sheets and covers. They close at 11:00, so make sure you call them in advance if you are arriving later. We only stayed there because there was a Tesla charger across the hotel.

Good place to stop for the night. We got in very late and had to leave early, so never got to enjoy amenities, or check out the entire property. Rooms are recently remodeled/refreshed.

I waited 30 minutes outside in 5 degree weather for somebody from your front office to come and let me into my room. The girl who came had obviously been sleeping. Terrible experience. And the heater in the room didn’t even work!! It was beyond terrible honestly. Worst hotel stay I’ve experienced

Check in was perfect. Amanda at the front desk helped us with the tv. Our dog loved the room which means it didn't have strong odors from other dogs. So we had a peaceful night ❤️.
