The room was clean and the bed (an important feature) was OK, I wish I had known you have no coffee pots, microwave or refrigerator in the room. Coffee is my most important meal in the morning; I would have brought my own coffee pot.

Staff was good but off site
Seemed old and well used
Very strong scent and smell of smoke in my non-smoking room. It was very hard to even sleep.

We had to get and return the room keys at a different building. Both floors of rooms are numbered in the 900s... Coffee maker, but no coffee. Bathroom was extremely small.
Unfortunately, this is a smoking motel. The minute I opened the door the smell hit me. It has been years since I’ve seen an ashtray in a motel room. I have asthma and could not stay in that room. There was a huge race at the Brainerd international Raceway so there were no rooms within 50 miles. Instead of staying there, I chose to drive the 2 1/2 hours home.

2 day stay
The room was clean
But they need to put more than 1 garbage can in the room
The air conditioner for the motel needs to be upgraded because the room is to warm.
Or put air conditioner units in each room
No ice machine in the motel
Thanks
Check-in was in a separate building, which was odd, but staff likely wouldn’t want to stay in this building with no A/C all day either. Also smelled like smoke in the hallways but at least not in the room. Tub faucet leaked and dripped all night, shower head was only usable on the highest “jet” setting.
If you need a bed and a roof for a night, it’ll work. Don’t expect much more though.

We didn’t even stay there. We walked into our room and it was so hot we were sweating. Broken AC that they never informed us about. We turned around, walked out and handed the keys back.
no elevator, site of building with our room a block away from the desk

Hotel is an older hotel. If you just need a bed, and a shower l, it will work fine. Strong smell of old cigarette smoke in the lobby and hallways. Air conditioning doesn’t work very well.
