Guest Reviews
- Pam (4/5): - Needs to be updated!!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Wedding stay - Cleaniless was great. Very dated and pillows need to be replaced as sleeping was not super comfortable. Curtain needs to be fixed as well since looks out to the parking lot and hard time closing it all the way. No breakfast but not an issue for us.
- John (6/5): - Knew this wouldnt be great based on price. Got what I expected. Advertised that coffee would be available in office,was not.
- Laurie (10/5): - This motel was perfect for what we wanted. A clean place to sleep for a night. VERY clean and VERY quiet even though it was completely booked. I would definitely reccomend it for someone who just wants the basics. Again, VERY clean.
- Gary (10/5): - Older property but nicely maintained. Very helpful staff. Just what I needed on this trip.
- Darla (8/5): - Would stay again. Comfortable and quiet. Close walk to food and drinks. Like to support local small business owners
- MIRANDA (4/5): - No shampoo or conditioner in room. MAnager barely spoke. Ice machine only available during short lobby hours. In the morning there was an unimaginable stench outside. Not farm related.
- Robert (10/5): - It was a basic room. This is what we wanted as we were at a birthday party.
- Gordon (10/5): - I liked the ease of the check-in and check-out.
- Sarah (10/5): - Older motel, but clean. Roomed smell fresh. For price, very happy. Not fancy, but just right.
- Chris (4/5): - No good
- Alan (10/5): - Cost, clean, quiet, friendly environment, beautiful country.
- Theresa (6/5): - Our room had small holes in the flooring under the carpet. Other than that the room looked clean.
- Margaret (10/5): - The historic aspect
- Michael (10/5): - Owner personable and professional. Great value for the cost! Clean, safe and quiet! Thx for a great night's sleep!!
- michael (8/5): motorcyclist stop over - Small but comfortable room, Clean with one bed, micro and refer. No coffee pot which I have come to expect. ? Close to staples shopping. Can't fault it as a budget motel. I'd stay again.
- Pam (8/5): - Room priced equal to what you get. Cleaner then super 8
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The room was clean but really needs updating of the carpet and bathroom. The pillows are really flat, bring your own. There is no coffee in the room, and only bar soap in the bathroom.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very nice clean motel for a very reasonable price. Loved that it had 3 beds as we travel with 2 kids (1boy, 1 girl) and it gets expensive to have enough beds for us all. My only complaint was that it had snows and no one shoveled at all. We had to walk through ankle deep snow to get from our vehicle to our room. Otherwise a great room for a very reasonable price.
- RONALD (10/5): - The best handicap room ive seen . Management was totally helpful and friendly. The best motel in town.
- Michael (10/5): Nice, Clean and roomy - Only two things I would change, tv is really small and I thought the pillows where too firm. Some of our other judges said they thought the pillow where good....
- keith (8/5): - Clean older model. Nothing fancy but gets the job done.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Fine place to stay - One of two choices in cresco. Older motel, dated but clean. Friendly staff, pets stay free. No complaints!
- Verified traveler (6/5): - I liked the ease of moving luggage from my car to my room. I did not like the lack of Wi-Fi.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - It was dated, but clean and the bed was comfortable.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The location for our needs was excellent. The shower was powerful.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - This was easy to find and very close to Eating and the Liquor store
the price ended up $20 dollars higher than my confirmation without tax
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Room was clean. Heat worked well. Had a smart TV and a decent shower. For the cost, it was great.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Rip off because they where the only ones around that accompanied us with a dog.
- Deb (6/5): - Very clean. Needs updating. The use of strong air freshener. Good place if your just need a place to sleep.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - OWNER was helpful and accommodating. Priced to right and quaint town of Cresco. Very Good wifi and clean bathrooms
- Verified traveler (6/5): Old-time motel in Cresco - Bedding was clean, but non-slip strips in bathtub were grimy. Mold growing in toilet. The vanity was new and clean. Soap provided, but no shampoo or lotion. No hair dryer in room. Coffe only available in office, not in rooms. The spacious room had microwave, fridge, and flat-screen TV, but no radio. Several USB ports for charging, a nice feature. Deadbolt and peephole on door, but no security chain. But Cresco is likely a pretty safe place.
- Chris (6/5): New bedding needed - Although I was pleasantly surprised by the fresh smelling room (no stale cigarette smell perfume cover up), the fact is that this is an old building and shows it. The bedding is old and thin and the carpets show wear.
- Wendell (10/5): - We have absolutely no complaints. The room was clean and comfortable.
- Robb (8/5): - It's an older style motel with 20 some rooms. This style allows you to park right in front of your room, which I really like. The motel looks dated and it is, but the room was very clean and well cared for. It had all the basics; microwave, small fridge, flat screen TV with cable, reasonably fast WIFI. It was very comfortable and in a good location, with a diner 2 blocks away. The The price was very reasonable.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The price was great. The staff very friendly. The room was clean. Older hotel but clean, friendly and great price. I’d recommend and go back
- Verified traveler (6/5): - No coffee pot and coffee (had to ask the office, and wait for them to bring me some), no shampoo (had to use my shaving lotion), television need to be unplugged when it froze up (I thought the remote's batteries went dead), the only 110V power outlet was on the far wall (didn't have a plain USB cord for my tablet)..
.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The room was clean and acceptable, about what you would expect for this type of motel. Room darkening curtain on the window facing east would have been nice. We were up with the sun.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It’s a trip back to the 50s. Very pleasant quiet. Well located
- Verified traveler (8/5): - We liked the price. Easy to get to. Dog friendly.
Our bed pillows could have been better.
- Kelly (8/5): Good value - Room was a little small but great value to lay your head for a night
Great coffee shop and bakery downtown very friendly townfolk
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We stay here every year, covers necessities and good price!
- Sarah (8/5): - It was very, very clean. The owners were friendly and helpful when our plans changed suddenly and we had to leave our stay early. It is older and our room was small but it was about $50. It was great and I will stay again. Check out all three bars I Cresco-they are fun!
- RON (10/5): ELMA TRIP - Room was in great shape and ample space, desk, lounge chair. Bed was very comfortable. Great value for price.
- John (8/5): - The room was very clean. The queen bed was comfortable. The bathroom was bigger then most drive up motels. The outside could use updating but not terrible. The fridge with freezer space was nice. Microwave worked well. No coffee maker in the room. Wall mounted TV w cable was great.
- Al (6/5): - Older motel under newer management, Difficult understanding English from Manager as a second language for them. Staff was trying very hard to meet our needs in but motel had some problems, which they fixed in timely manner for us.
- Ed (10/5): - It was very clean and quiet standard amenitys cable tv and wifi. The only thing I did not like is motel tv guide did not match channels.
- J (8/5): - This is my third time staying here. Normally the room is very clean. This time, I found a small piece of dirt on the ground, a rubber band on the bottom ledge of the night stand. There were two pieces of discarded dental floss in the garbage can. The sink was leaking and full of water when I arrived (the sink was closed at the bottom). I let out the water just in time. It was on the verge of overflowing onto the floor. The room was quiet. The heat worked well. The hot water worked well.
- D (8/5): - Not fancy but clean and friendly
- Max (8/5): - Convenient location to cafe and highway. No ice found.
