- Jeremy (10/5): - I’ve been here the past 3 nights I’ve always felt safe, room was clean, beds were clean. The owners each night let me have outside access due to me traveling by bicycle. I have no complaints, the staff actually went out of their way to help me.
- Jeremy (10/5): - The property is perfect when it comes to walking and cycling distance. Staff helped me get a room I could easily go in and out with my bike. Great people, great rooms, and the cheapest/cleanest hotel around
- Amber (2/5): Terrible - First the room we get into the microwave doesn’t work. The 2nd night there we got moved to another room. That room was ok but in neither room did we have hot water. The breakfast was terrible. Only choice in food is waffles, chocolate donuts and cereal. They had no hot water in there either so anyone wanting coffee had to have cold and heat in that microwave. Also we get there and they have a sign up pool closed for season. It didn’t mention that online when I reserved it. I would Not recommend going to this hotel
- Piper (3/5): - Bed was super comfy The room smelled like cigarettes even though it's non-smoking. The apple juice was expired. Not many options for breakfast.
- Regina (4/5): -
- aaron (6/5): Good stay - The owners let us switch rooms as we wanted a none smoking room. Room was clean but could use some updating.
- Triston (4/5): Dexter inn - Just a ratty little place found cockroaches in the parking lot alot of damaged drywall. Beds were mediocre at best blackest felt like window curtains. Only thing good was the pool water was clean and their was hot water
- Albert (10/5): Nice - Quiet and close to everything
- aaron (6/5): Ants - I love this family hotel. They are going through renovations but also they have an ant problem on this property.
- Jamie (8/5): - The bed was so comfortable and the pool was clean.

- Rachel (1/5): Never staying again - Nothing Air didn’t work refrigerator didnt work no towels in the room
- Ronald (10/5): - I always stay here when I’m in town. Great place
- Angie (2/5): - My arms kept breaking out an then I realized there was ants and what appeared to look like tiny bugs on the bed when we would leave for the day an come back I would see them
- Adriana (10/5): - I like everything good people .
- Emily (6/5): - The staff was friendly. The hotl has seen better days. The whole place could use a deep cleaning. There were signs posted that said no smoking of any kind but there was a strong pot smell down the hall. The air was off in our room when we got to it. Nothing like walking into a room that is 80 degrees. The floor in the bathroom was dusty. Stains on bedding. Breakfast was not appealing.
- Gregory (1/5): Bad -
- Jeanne (3/5): Room was cheap you get what you pay for - Convenience Ants all over even in our bed. Woke up several times with ants on our face. Was provided a roll away bed with extra charges but sank in the middle pulled back the mattress and there was a big hole where springs were broken. Floors has dirt and somebodies medication on the floor of the bathroom.
- Randall (2/5): - First off checking was horrible. I had a room reserved and they gave me the wrong room with a dirty extra bed in a king bed room. They also at check out told me not to come back or my gf because they said the towels were dirty an also bothered us the entire stay
- Anna (10/5): - Very nice chill spot.
- Tammy (6/5): - The sink had ants in it. The mirror was filthy. There was only 1 towel for 3 people. The girl at the desk gave us towels. Nothing looked clean. Only breakfast food was waffles, bread, small donuts and apples.
- Genevieve (8/5): Easy access, comfortable and clean. - Right off the Interstate. Easy access. Comfortable and roomy and quiet. Everything was very clean and neat. Vending machines. There were all sorts of outlets on the desk for your tech. The fridge was smaller than most other places I have stayed in. It worked but the freezer wasn't big enough for my ice packs (I had a few!)
- Amanda (10/5): - The room was huge and very clean. The place was pleasantly quiet.
- David (8/5): ‘Twas ok for a one night stay. - For three adults, we needed more regular coffee in the room…. but you had no more. And I didn’t feel the conditioning in the shampoo.
- Deborrah (8/5): - Extremely helpful and pleasant staff.
- Donald (2/5): - This hotel is old, dirty and run down. I never would have stayed if not for the fact we were meeting family at the same hotel. Never ay.
- Dana (6/5): Pleasant -
- Dan (6/5): - It’s okay
- Gary (6/5): Pleasant -
- Sara (1/5): Dirty - Hotel is dirty don’t understand why they charge a cleaning fee when they don’t clean. Please don’t waste your money here!
- Amy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gwen (1/5): Very terrible experience - Nothing Was outdated not very clean at all pulled back the covers and there was trash in the bed very flat pillows uncomfortable bed staff rude Breakfasts was a joke tons of signs saying do not take food to room did not have coffee made only thing decent about breakfast was the waffles
- Yvonne (10/5): - Quiet
- Tamara (4/5): - Gravy looked like dirty water, tv was broke and room had broke and dirty furniture
- Cynthia (10/5): - it was fine, dispensary in the parking lot basically, so that was handy
- Tiffany (10/5): - The staff was very nice and friendly. There to help if you needed anything
- Courtney (2/5): Would not recommend - The hotel is in poor condition. Rooms were dirty and nasty
- Colton (3/5): Not good - There was a bed to sleep in Laundry didn’t work, real trashy people stay there full time always arguing and you have to run them away from your door more than once
Hallways smelled like weed door did not work room was not as pictured way worse
- luke (2/5): GROSS PLACE - The place was NOT clean at all. There was hair on the beds sheet. Shower was not clean. Very dirty place. We had a friend get bit 3 times by a spider that I am assuming was in her bed because she woke up with them. There is a weed shop right next door and when we came back from dinner the hole place smelled like it.
- David (7/5): Clean and a good value. -
- Dylan (3/5): Poor -
- David (10/5): Thanks and God bless 🙌 - It waz very clean the owners waz respectful and I wanna say God bless you and your family 👌👏🙌🙏 Everything waz good 👍
- Verified traveler (4/5): Nasty, shady, outdated, gross - Hotel was very old and outdated. Everything stank of old cigarette smoke and age. The hallways were halfway painted. Black mold in the bathroom, lamp was broken and top light didn't work. Beds were about the size of a twin bed and a half. Looks almost like the downstairs is extended stay, apartment, type rooms, while the 2nd floor serves as the "hotel" part of the building. The only plus was the front desk woman was was friendly. I will never book this place again. I understand its a local hotel, but for $96/ night... never again. Pay the extra $20-$30 per night and get a chain hotel.
- Brian (4/5): - Place was run down and outdated. The laundry room was out of order and the room was sub par
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The weather was bad, pouring down rain! Had to carry suitcases upstairs, no elevator.
- Chante (4/5): - had some problems with hot water
- Robert (6/5): - All AROUND experience was great
- Verified traveler (2/5): Terrible - Carpet was incredibly dirty and bed had multiple stains and dirt all over.
- Glen (10/5): - The staff at Dexter Inn is very pleasant my room every evening when I come back was cleaned and made up the floor was taken care of fresh towels, and the smell was wonderful around the whole hotel. I definitely recommend if you’re traveling this is a place to stop.
- Paul (8/5): Very good - It was convenient and easy to get to The breakfast had very little to eat on it
- Loxie K. (8/5): - The breakfast was fresh but few choices. desk service excellent
- Verified traveler (10/5): Clean and convenient - Was a nice convenient place to stay over night. Hotel was older and a little out dated but clean with very friendly staff.
- Deborah (3/5): Poor - Staff was pleasant. The picture of the pool is a joke. Pool was green and totally unusable. Bedding was tired and had holes. Chairs in the room were worn and spoiled. Furniture was beat up.Ceiling paint was peeling and the carpet was sticky. No ice machine.
- Debbie (4/5): - The towels were very thin and non-absorbent. The soap provided was the extremely small and thin bars. Showering with that was annoying. The refrigerator though worked surprisingly well. It actually got and stayed cold. The lighting in the bathroom area around the mirror wasn't adequate enough.
- Angela (8/5): - The ac didnt work. So was hot even in oct to sleep. The beds are real soft was not use to sleep on when have had back surgery
- Amanda (6/5): Pleasant - Price was good. Rooms had a door to outside as well as a door to inside which was convenient. The bed was comfortable. Somethings were updated but some things still need updating. It was fine for one night. On checkout morning the front desk called before checkout time to ask if we were extending our stay or leaving. I have never been called by the front desk and asked this question before. I could understand if it was really close to checkout time but it wasn’t.
- lisa (10/5): - Clean and good parking
- Lisa (2/5): - I paid almost $400 for 2nights- only to have nothing in my room work. Mattresses had blood on them. Rooms were disgusting. Not vacuumed. No toilet paper. Breakers kept blowing. Everything would shut off. Towels had stains.. Refrigerators wouldn’t work. Let just say I’m so happy I didn’t have a blue light.! My room smelled like a dirty ashtray. I can camp for days on end.. but there’s a difference between dirt and filth.!!
- William (5/5): Passable -
- Pat (4/5): - Ants were on nightstand, desktop, and chair. Furniture was poor condition. Overall cleanliness was good.
- Regina (8/5): Better than I thought. - I had heard bad things about this place. I found no bugs or drugs.. The staff was very nice. It is an old building but for and over night stay it was good. I would stay here again. It is by a local Walmart!
- Lindsay (10/5): - The staff was extremely friendly when I went to check in! They were understanding and let me leave 30 minutes late without charging me! Overall a great experience
- Steven (6/5): - It's an old country hotel. It's a mix of smoking and non-smoking so outside the room you will smell smoke. Staff was friendly, room was clean. There was an "old" smell to the room, but not surprising for the age of the hotel.
- Shirley (2/5): - Did not like dingy hard towels ,
Staff implied my daughter might have been attempting to steal towels when all she wanted was to replace dirty towels for clean towels after 2 night stay.Dirty underwear left by previous occupant, filthy appliances ( microwave had big crumbs).Would not stay there ever again!
- Barbara (2/5): - The front of our parking space was full of cigarette buts. Went to get a shower pulled back the curtain and there was hair on the wall. Carpet was dirty. We left and went to the Travel Lodge. My brother dented a room also my sister in law said there was hair on their shower wall to. Pulled out a chair to sit on and there were only 3 wheels on it.
- patricia (6/5): - The coffee for breakfast was old. Not much for breakfast.
- Jessie (2/5): - Absolutely disgusting. So many roaches and other bugs. Stains and filth everywhere. They don’t give refunds at all. DO NOT STAY HERE.
- Rita (8/5): - Clean, inexpensive, nice staff
- aaronp (10/5): No Frills, friendly staff - I have stayed here many times and the owners know me by name. Really nice staff and they keep the place nice and clean. If you are ever in Dexter MO its a nice little place to stay.
- James (7/5): Good, basic stay. - We have stayed here several times. This is a basic room. What we do like is that each time, the room is better than the last time. They have continually strived to be better. A better ADA bathroom would be nice, shower instead of tub, but we understand that’s expensive. The shower head, chair and adaptations let us know they are trying and they are helpful.
- Kim (2/5): - Not staying here again. Dirty and dated.
- Ashlock (1/5): Bad - They charge me again for room after I all ready paid
- James (3/5): I wouldn’t stay again. It just wasn’t comfortable. The staff was very kind - We needed a place to stay for one night and it was the only available property I could find It’s really in need of updating. I didn’t want to walk on the carpet barefoot( yeah, that kind of clean). It smelled of cigarette smoke.
- Kevin (5/5): It was ok😊 - Have a clean bed spread!
- Ward (1/5): Not a good place to stay. - Bed was comfortable and that was the only positive thing about the place. No hot water for showers. Their excuse was too many guests staying at hotel. Furniture was well worn. Prostitutes in the parking lot. All night parties on the 2nd floor.
- Daniel (8/5): Very good -
