I stay here every other weekend about with my kids the staff is great nobody really bothers you and have a swimming pool The only downfall at all if there is one is sometimes the high speed internet lags and my son trying to Play PlayStation online gets upset because he can't Play his game online besides that is great

The hotel was not clean. One of the sinks in the room did not work. It says “pet friendly “ but there was never mention of extra fees for pets on either Expedia or the hotel website. I had to pay the extra fees upon arrival. The bedding was also stained and looked dirty. I will never stay there again.

First off, we booked 2 rooms. First room seemed fine at first, second room the sink didn’t work and would just run randomly. The first room we complained of the tv not working, then they brought an extension cord, it turned on, they left, never got a connection. Later we complained about an electrical burning smell. Lady came in, looked around, said she didn’t smell it and told us not to plug things in. In the second room the handle fell off the shower so we couldn’t even use the shower. I would complain about how both rooms had no shower curtains, but apparently we are lucky there since there was guest complaining of mold on theirs. The floors feel damp and stinky through out the hotel. We had exposed wiring in a room. When my kids woke up with bites on their bodies, that’s what broke the camels back. We payed for 2 days and left after 1. This place is unsafe and disgusting. I will continue to let others know how horrible our experience was. The rooms have a strange oder to them, and one little bit picky detail was the horrible patch work throughout the rooms and hallways. Also the burnt outlet outside of our room was a great view. And I took pictures of these issues so need to come back and say I’m lying😀

The carpet in our room felt wet and had visible stains all over. The shower head didn't work properly. The desk clerk was rude. There was trash all over the parking lot. The bed frame was a thin metal pedestal and every time one would touch it, it would bang LOUDLY. The location wasn't terrible but not great. There is a railroad track right behind the hotel. The complimentary breakfast consisted of dried out bagels and make them yourself waffles. The price per day is reasonable but the unacceptable cleanliness made it not worth it.

Kind of a last stop passing through Omaha. No frills hotel doesn’t look great on outside area roads was under construction. Restaurant next door but not sure it was open. Spacious king bed room. Manager weirdly knocks on door 5 minutes before checkout telling me it’s checkout time. Maybe they have had problems with that.

Two words: bed bugs. Obvious infestation. Front desk was not helpful at all (couldn't even get us into another room). I understand that sometimes hotels experience bed bugs. However, it is a problem that needs to be taken seriously. It appeared as though the carpet hadn't been vacuumed with many dead bugs on the floor, and live bugs in the bed. Reconsider staying here (even if the price can't be beat) until they mitigate their infestation.

We arrived late after a long day of travel, and our first room had a strong mildew smell. The front desk lady moved us to a new room, but it was even worse. The window was broken, wires were haphazardly hanging, and doors to storage areas were left open, one of which showed roof access. Overall, a very disappointing experience.

Hair on my bed. Had to change rooms because of smoke smell in a non smoking room. New room had running water that could not be turned off. Hair on the bed. Looked like pet hair. Bug on my pillow and bed. Can’t sleep here. Checked out

This hotel was extremely poor condition. The whole place smelled like mildew and was very dirty. Our room specifically had holes in the walls, unpainted patches of drywall from previously fixed holes, there was hair all over our shower, the shower curtain had mold all over it, the area the hotel is in was rough, and the staff were extremely unapproachable and rude.
5.0 / 5.0
Quite lots of parking.

The people who run the place are good people. Definitely need some better people skills. The beds are extremely uncomfortable and hard and the A/C units don’t work well.
2.0 / 5.0
Seemed like a sketchy area, no houskeeping during the day, staff was constantly on their cell phones speaking in another language even when assisting me with getting new towels because ours werent changed, orange juice was basically water, door was hard to open as it always got stuck on the carpet both opening and closing (it should not be a workout to open a door), the facet dripped the entire time, there was a dried substance of some sort on one of the headboards - i really dont want to know what that was......all in all I would pay 25-50 a night if i ever have to stay in a place like this emergently. Even though its concidered cheap its over priced when you dont even get basics like clean towels every day.

One of the worst hotels I’ve ever stayed at. There was a plastic bag tied around the smoke detector (which is illegal, unsafe, and not up to code). When we asked about it they said yeah it doesn’t work. The sheets were dirty and stained, when we asked for new ones they handed us a pile of sheets to change them ourselves. There were holes in the walls, trash in the room from previous guests, the floor was sticky and squished under you when you walked, and there was mold everywhere. The air conditioner in particular was covered in it. When we asked for a new room they told us that was all they had. Terrible experience.

They had a very nice pool. There are many things that could be updated, fixed and replaced. For instance the grab bar in the bathroom was not fully attached. The carpet had a spot like an upheaval in the bathroom, the faucet would not turn off without a lot of effort, we could not open the window because the hinge wasn’t on properly. However it did seem fairly clean, decent breakfast, convenient location, friendly desk people.

Staff was friendly at check in. Had requested pet friendly room, was charged an additional $15 at check in that was not mentioned during hotels.com booking. Room was in disrepair and not cleaned to hotel standards. There was a graham cracker under the bed, beard trimmings around the sink, and surfaces seemed wiped down but not sanitized. The second sink in the room did not work.

The property is maintained very cleaned. The personnel is highly courteous. Very good customer service.
Parking lot is ample. The only thing was that my room face it train rails and I listened to the passing wagons.
