dirty, couldn't get some major channels on tv, no change for $20 bill at check in counter, poor condition of street to hotel and parking lot, breakfast ended too early, broken bathroom door knob and loose toilet seat and a musty smelling room. a cheap raunchy hotel. should be classified as a two star facility not a three.

Parking was great, pool appeard to be clean, hotel carpet was very outdated grimy feeling my wife didn't even want to walk on the carpet in our room barefooted due to the appearance and dirty feeling just to walk on, bathroom was decently cleaned, sheets on bed had a few specs of dirt on them, and the small refrigerator didn't work my wife said it appeared to have mold in it. Was not to happy with my stay other than the closeness to the rodeo that we were attending and the fact that we were only in the room for maybe 7-8 hours tops, but the rest of the propert appeared to be clean and presentable!!! Staff was very helpful and extremely nice and polite even when i asked for a key to examine our room before i agreed to pay and check in. Very doubtful we'll ever stay at this location again.

Off the road, real quiet. Nice staff. They are in the process of updating some of the rooms, so there is some construction but nothing crazy loud.

The room was good. Nothing fancy, but it was clean and safe. Lots of cosmetic issues with the facility that probably earn them some bad reviews. Would stay again.

We stayed in Oct2025. The Hotel Francis is a old motel with relatively new owners. You can tell they are slowly sprucing up the rooms, common areas, exterior, and parking area. It has a ways to go, but the management was very responsive. The rooms have new TVs, beds, AC units, etc, but our room did not have renovations of the bathroom, vanity, entrance, etc. You know you are in a old motel. The pool looked well kept and a families were swimming with their kids. They've made sure everything works, and I felt completely safe there. The breakfast is a modest self-serve: coffee, OJ, toast, cereal, etc. Based on my conversation with the friendly staff, the owners have great plans. In the meantime I'd stay again if I wanted to rest my head.

I have been staying here for ten years now. This is a convenient place to if you are working at the plant. I've seen this place go from good to okay, okay to bad, bad to horrible and making it's way back up again. I look forward to seeing how they improve this place. Not offering dinner was a bummer this last stay but understood why.

The hotel is an older building with no frills and very basic. However the staff is always pleasant, the atmosphere was quiet and the pond, lawn, trees and grounds around the hotel are well manicured and absolutely beautiful! I loved listening to the geese on the pond and other night sounds as I fell asleep!
