Great location
We had a very comfortable stay. Room was quiet, bed was comfortable and close to Cabella's and a great steakhouse. This is not a beautiful hotel, but it was great for wat we needed.

Clean and comfortable
The person at the front desk was nice and very helpful. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. It is an older hotel, but it looked like they made great efforts to keep it clean and comfortable. The parking lot was packed it that tells you anything. I would stay there again.

The front desk staff was very helpful. I let him know I needed a room on the ground floor as my sister who was traveling with me uses a walker. He immediately offered a handicap room which was great for accessibility. The beds were very comfortable and the room was comfortable. I would recommend staying here.

The rooms need better lighting especially a desk lamp. Breakfast was minimal but I expected that from a motel.
Staff was very nice, rooms were clean and price was right

Grab a room
This lodge was surprisingly great and worth the price. It is definitely in need of carpet, deeper cleaning and maybe a bathroom remodel but otherwise if your staying for night, grab a room!

Good old standby!
I have stayed here numerous times over the past several years. Always clean with friendly staff. Right next to the interstate with McDonalds in the backyard and a nice truck stop diner and gas next door.

Old fashioned facility, but well maintained, close to shopping and attractions, limited breakfast, but restaurants are close by with more options. Nice staff.
