Staff was EXTREMELY rude. Took a picture of my drivers license and when asked how long it will be on record he said permanently and if I don't like it I can go elsewhere. The carpet was disgusting, bathroom was not cleaned, stairs outside falling apart. The train track is next to the property and is LOUD, not a fault of the hotel, but something to note. Changed room several times, some rooms smelled really bad, some rooms had a loud buzz. Everyone I talked to hated it there, so AVOID.

I had reserved 3 rooms. My party stayed in all 3. The rooms were dirty. The smoke alarm was beeping from low battery and the front desk person just removed the somke alarm and never replaced it. The heater didnt have control buttons, and he pulled a key out of his pocket to turn it on and set it to high heat with no way for us to turn it off. The beds were poor and inconsistent in the rooms. The double queen rooms we rented had full size beds. The front desk guy inspected the rooms for cleanliness and all he did was spray fabreeze around the room. The door wouldnt stay closed and would just pop open. The toilet clogged the first night and was never remedied. We had to go to the other rooms or the restaurant near by. There was no water pressure in the shower or sink. All of these issues were in just one room and my party members were just being polite by not complaining about their rooms. DO NOT STAY HERE!!

It's your typical not so expensive, not so clean, not so well located, but convenient motel. Pros: basically the only accommodation in Monroe, microwave and fridge in room, good to-go breakfast, not cheap but reasonably priced (80 usd tax incl). Cons: between train tracks and US2 highway, nosy on botha sides, kind of old, but more importantly... Wasn't very clean really. And I'm not the type to complain easily about cleanliness, the room really wasn't so clean.

You get what you pay for.

Asked for accessible. Started by offering a second floor room. No elevator. Bed was like a lumpy rock. Step over tub. Close to a one inch gap under the door. 24 degree low. Second night used a towel to stop the free flow of cold air into the room at night. Not staying there again.

For the most part everything was clean and suitable. Only downfall was all the traffic on HWY 2. It gets loud when people think it is a race track. No fault of the owners. It was a place to stay warm, and relax.

Just Horrible

Horrible, smelly rooms and bedding. Appeared dirty. Furniture was stained and I felt gross sitting on. Train noise was terrible. Foot traffic and knocking of doors was often with other guests. Just horrible. Checked in at 4, tried two rooms. Decided to leave at 11pm because I couldn’t sleep. Would on,y offer partial refund. Taught me a lesson to not cheap out on motel/hotel when traveling.
