I have no idea how this place got good reviews. All night long there were weird dudes walking around in the parking lot. The room is outdated, and has a super weird smell. Almost nothing in the room works. One of the lamps didn’t work, the television doesn’t work, the Internet doesn’t work, and the refrigerator doesn’t even get cold. The sheets were scratchy, and the carpet seemed moist. Big no.

Just ok

Served our purpose but nothing special, holiday weekend but no evening popcorn, checked in at 6p but had to wait for desk clerk to see me on camera to come help. Hotel is dated, breakfast eggs were put out in chafing dish from a bag, and put into a bag after breakfast. Trash by front door was overflowing. Positively, the beds were comfortable.

Very disappointed

Arrived in the evening and had to wait 5 minutes for a front desk person to arrive to check me in. Room had no soap or shower products. Air conditioner was so loud we turned it off during the night. Strange smell in the room. Sunday morning went to breakfast at 9:40 and nothing was available. Sign said breakfast 7-10. Best thing about this hotel was the carpet stain collection throughout the property.

Find another Hotel

This hotel was run down and messy. There were many stains on the carpet, our door didn't close completely, without using a lot of force and once closed my daughter had to hip check the door to lock it. The bedding and towels were old and scratchy. Our beds seemed to be very old and lumpy as well. And when our TV wouldn't turn on I walked to the desk to report it and they manager and another employee promised they would send someone to fix it and they never came to our room. All and all a very unsatisfying experience. We would not recommend this hotel. Definitely, not worth the price.

The room was adequate. The breakfast was minimally acceptable. Our TV was not working for the first 3 hours and it took the manager 2 trips to get it to work. The ice machine on the 1st floor was broken and the one on the 2nd floor was nasty. I could not believe the high recommendations on the hotels.com website. I will not trust them in the future.

Passing through Kansas

Fossil Creek was ok but I'm not sure whether we would stay there again. The room was fine and the location was convenient to the highway for the night but breakfast was so disappointing. The scrambled eggs were cold and several of the containers for cold cereals were completely empty. It was not a good way to start the day.

Nice property the staff could use some valuable information on where guests can find food or get a bite around the area. Still a great experience.
