Detailed Reviews
Very clean, quiet, and cozy room. The manager was very friendly and professional Margaret made me feel comfortable and at home while I was staying there. There's also hand sanitizer in every room and if you want a great breakfast in the morning you can go to the embers next door. I would highly recommend the Acova motel.

We stayed overnight at the Avoca Inn while on a road trip from Illinois to Colorado. The Motel 6 up the road was already booked up, so we checked out the Avoca Inn. Our room was only $55 plus tax. The front desk worker was very kind and friendly. However, we noticed a dead grasshopper in plain view on the floor in the lobby. Then our room had no towels and had a strange smell. But there was coffee! If you have low expectations and only want a cheap bed to sleep in while passing through, then the Avoca Inn will be sufficient.

I stayed here for about a month following the start of a new job. The area is small and there really isn't much around but this motel was a true hidden gem.
My room was clean just about every day and I always had fresh towels. If I ever needed anything, all I'd have to do was go to the office and talk to Kim (manager). Kim was very accommodating and kind, as were the other room attendants, motel personnel, and the owner Al. Wifi and cable TV were nice additions to my room.
The motel is conveniently located near I-80 and Highway 59. There is a decent restaurant next door (The Embers), a truck stop nearby, a Dollar General, and a few other places. The neighborhood is very quiet and I didn't have to worry about my vehicle being vandalized nor losing any of my personal effects to theft.
I would encourage anyone to stop in if they're looking for a quiet, clean room at a reasonable price. I wouldn't put much stock in most of the reviews seen here; my stay was pretty great. Give it a shot. You won't be disappointed.

The manager overcharged my employee by entering 516.69 instead of 51.69. Her reply " mistakes happen" it's not her fault. No sorry nothing. Rooms definitely not worth that! Her rudeness was worse than the hassle.

We weren't expecting much from the looks of this place on the outside, but it was even worse on the inside: holes in the walls, stinky, dirty. I didn't sleep a wink, and we left VERY early to get out of there. Didn't even shower because I couldn't stand it.

Hidden gem! My husband and I were wary of the low cost ($45) as our recent experiences with other motels were awful. I am glad we gave the Acova Inn a chance!
The room (#10) was immaculate! It is obvious that the manager takes pride in her establishment. The room was HUGE, with two comfy queen beds, a separate kitchenette area, and a nice bathroom. Very quiet! The manager was very accommodating, staying well past the normal office hours to help us check-in @10pm.
I highly recommend the Acova Inn Motel to anyone looking for an affordable, cozy alternative to the national chains.

We were here working and were so impressed with this place. No it not complete yet but they are working on each room. (10 is done)
The place is clean and quite. Kim at front desk was awesome. Very helpful. She went up and beyond to make us comfortable and helped with whatever we needed.(faxing/printing)
There is a great restaurant/bar, practically right out the door .
Pets welcome!! Love that!

I love these Mom and Pop places and especially this place. I have stayed here several times now and the rooms are always clean and its very affordable. The rooms are also on par with any of the expensive places that are on the other side of the freeway. If you are on I80 exit 40 has a great place to stay with the Embers family owned restaurant right next door. Very quiet as well!

Family run, cozy and safe. I love staying here. Room 8 is my favorite! I always have a good hair day when I shower there
Thank you so much for the excellent hospitality
There are really good people around to help, as well- small market close by.

We spent the night there Sat. Aug 31. We lucked out and got the last room available that evening at the cost of only $55.00 plus tax. The room was clean and you could tell recently remodeled. The bed was comfortable had a good nights sleep. There were flowers planted in front of the rooms and sitting on most of the airconditioers were painted pet rocks. Which I thought was a cute touch.
