“Was expecting better”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed August 18, 2012

Based on the reviews, I was expecting better. There was a breakfast that was much better than expected; however, for nearly twice the price of Motel 6 I was expecting better than Motel 6, but found it to be not as good.

“Nice location, great breakfast”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 29, 2012

I had a quick trip here last month.. Overall the hotel needs a little remodel.. Some paint and elbow grease would go a long way.. The outdoor pool is a good size and is heated.. The rooms were a little small but did the job for sleeping.. Right off the highway on the way to Milwaukee.. The breakfast is definitely the best part of the hotel.. Make your own everything (pretty much?)

“Come for the Breakfast, and the Price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 27, 2012

Breakfast is the highlight here. Make-your-own Ham Cheese Mushroom Omelet, Pancakes, Waffles, or Crepes. Biscuits & Gravy or choice of four sugary cereals (no non-sugared corn flakes or cheerios).

Not near downtown and not much nearby, but good freeway access. Old but clean. Questionable-looking outside and hallways, but nice inside room. Friendly staff. Old, but comfortable beds (some very old-looking mattresses stacked up in hallway). Good A/C. Fridge and Micro in room. This place shows its age, but appears to be reasonably well maintained.

Good water pressure with lots of very hot water but be careful; the hot and cold were reversed in my good-sized shower (shower only, no tub in my single king room). Good work desk, but needed an extension cord to connect PC. I’d stay again for the low price and good breakfast, but not the luxury or location.
