Affordable stay near highway

This is a very cheap motel right off the highway and is convenient to pull into. Room service available is that Domino’s will deliver to your room. It was clean and breakfast was minimal but decent offerings for what you pay. There was obvious repair to previous damage in both rooms (the desk in our room and the bathroom door in my husband’s parent’s room. However, for what they charge I don’t think they have the funds for improvements. All in all, if you’re looking for a low cost option for 1-night while driving through, this does the job.

We had a good stay at the hotel. It was clean and ready for us when we arrived. It is in a slightly run down area of town. Adult book store right next door and some abandoned buildings. There was a McDonald's a short walk away. Traveling with older children was fine, but I don't think I would want to stay there with younger kids due to the surroundings, not the hotel itself.

What a gem! Clean, quiet area with dining and fuel close at hand all for a good price. I was driving cross country and this was PERFECT for that. I have to admit, the kiosk was off putting, but I got to deal with a real human instead! Whew! Wouldn't hesitate to stop here again.

Amazing service!

The thing that made our stay great was definitely the service we received. When we checked in, the front desk employee was super nice to us. The morning we were leaving, we had a flat tire and the front desk employee went out into the freezing cold to use a portable air compressor to get enough air in our tire so we could make it to the gas station. I will definitely stay here my next trip to Lincoln!

Stuck in a Nebraska Blizzard

I stayed here because I wanted a cheap room as I was stuck in town due to the weather. The manager was exceptionally kind. He even offered to help scrape my windshield this morning. Everything was nice. I would say for the money, you couldn't expect anything better!
