Furnishings were not updated but it served its purpose
- Shawn A (8/5): - The room was everything i needed.
- Amanda (2/5): Won’t do this one again - The first room they gave us keys for had not been cleaned. The second room had a dirty floor, smelled strongly of chemicals.
Air conditioner was so noisy all night long. Bathroom door didn’t latch and drug on the ground.
- Chanin (6/5): - Accommodations fair, front desk attendant understanding to my check out situation. Could not stay the last day of my reservation. Said she would possibly help with a refund.
- owen (2/5): - decent price.
NO TOWELS IN ROOM
- Penny (8/5): - Our room was very clean and the king size bed was comfortable it did need some updating like a new shower head and a vent in the bathroom and the sink faucets were loose so you had to be careful were only there for 2 nights so it was manageable the office manager was very nice and helpful.
- Ronald (8/5): - The rooms were very clean, and very comfortable bed.
- Tiffany (10/5): - Staff was super friendly fast very efficient.The beds was like sleeping on a cloud.Budget friendly!
- Jeremy (10/5): - It is what i paid for, a clean comfortable bed to lay my head on and a nice warm shower. Friendly staff
- Charles (10/5): Stopped here again - I’m a hotshot driver. The hotel was able to get me into a room early. The people here are great. The hotel is next to a truck stop with a restaurant. Convenient for drivers. The hotel is older but it’s comfortable, clean & safe.
- Katherine (10/5): - Nice place. Easy check in/out
- Kenneth (10/5): - Property was in good shape, although it looked like they were in the process of upgrading the building. I didn't like the pea gravel in the parking lot. A balance issue for me.
- Paul (2/5): No service, Nobody! - Nobody was there to check us on. Called 3 times before someone showed up
- Verne (4/5): - The carpet in the room was very dirty! Build up of dirt in non carpeted areas
- Lois (8/5): - Not the most attractive location or motel from outside but room was clean a d bed was comfortable.
- RANDALL J (8/5): - Good basic motel. Cleaned every day. Ac worked, water was hot and sheets were clean.
- Scott (4/5): - The switch for the lights by the wash basin was worn out. you had to hold it to have lights. The outlet for the light next to the bed didn't work so you couldn't use the light. The door needs weatherstrip. Room 208
- Candice (2/5): - We booked this stay for some of our employees. We were there for some rehabilitation, construction work. My guys called me the next morning to express concerns about the cleanliness of everything. Said it was so bad they nearly slept in the trucks. Unfortunately our schedule changed and the job was not ready, I tried to cancel the hotel but was not able to as the stay had already started. So unfortunately we were stuck with the cost of a hotel that we honestly wouldn't have stayed in even if our job stayed on schedule. My guys called me to get them another place because they felt it was so bad.. and that is coming from Sewer Rehabilitation construction workers.
- JD (2/5): - Expedia should not market this property. Dirty, damaged, fly infested.
- Raymond (2/5): - Two nights in a row I got bit by bugs, you can stand inside your room and look towards the door you can see daylight all around there door. The toilet is made for children.
- Nathan (10/5): - They had grills and other outdoor cooking options available for the guests to use. It has some of the best beds I have slept in while traveling. I appreciate the facility.
- Ernesto (10/5): - Q
- Alan (4/5): - Lowest price in the area. Check in staff nowhere to be found to check in at 10 pm. No answer to phone or bell. Knocked on staff door and she eventually appeared, and was angry that we opened the staff door to get service.
Debris and dirt on bathroom floor. Convened location to the interstate.
- mandy (10/5): - Nice
- Sarah (6/5): - The bed was comfy…… but not worth the 141 I paid……. The no coffee pot in room was a huge downfall!!!
- Theda (10/5): - It was close to the interstate and easy to get to.
- Amanda (6/5): - Room was okay, not the cleanest room I have been in. A lot of outside traffic/people. Im not sure I would feel safe staying here alone.
- Brian (8/5): - The staff was nice and prompt. The rooms were clean and tidy. Ghe beds were comfortable and i had a good nights rest. It was quiet and pleasant.
- Glade (2/5): Don’t stay here - Worst hotel experience ever. Door wouldn’t lock, TV wouldn’t work, shower head fell off, carpet stained, bathtub drain broken, had to wait 30 min for someone to come let us check in. I would not recommend this place to anyone.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Pleasant Stay - I was pleasantly surprised by my room after reading the Trip Advisor rating. My bed was huge and comfortable. The room was very clean. I didn’t use the tv, I went to sleep pretty early. All in all, I enjoyed my stay. Chain restaurants were close by as well as a gas station. That was all I needed.
- Sandra (6/5): - The heater was difficult to use, very noisy. Trucks were parked outside and running all night. The bathroom was very cold. Would have been nice to have an extra blanket. The check in experience was great and the room was clean. The location was convenient.
- Helena (6/5): - You don’t want to spend $120 in a hotel with no cup, no hairdryer, and no breakfast filthy room
- I3167CYluisj (2/5): Manager needs to be fired. - Completely disappointing.
My wife called the front desk and asked to be transferred to my room number at night for a family matter, my cell service is from out of state and sometimes spotty, front desk immediately started yelling at her for calling so late said she was the manager and does not want any calls from 10pm-7am. Had it been a life or death matter, and this so called manager working the front desk help, had responded the same way not transferring the call because it was an inconvenience time for her to do her job I would be contacting lawyers and immediately suing her.
- Tammy (6/5): - Filthy, front desk gave us a room that was already occupied, so therefore didn't fill safe!
- Shari (10/5): - Front desk checkin staff was very friendly and had me in a room fast.
- Chris (10/5): - The staff was friendly
- Brian (8/5): - Clean friendly staff.
- Terrell (2/5): Never again!! - Well between popping fuses..tub faucet hanging and numerous holes in wall...very uncomfartable
- Michael (8/5): - The property could use some upgrades on their air conditioning units and bathroom facilities...
- Nicole (8/5): - Room is alright, wish there were more towels and better quality towels. There was a gap between the door that let daylight in.. and no ironing board. Bed was comfortable and room was clean just needed some updates.
- Mark (8/5): - No issues with the stay
- Charles (8/5): My stay - Very comfortable bed. Took a while to check in since nobody was a the front desk and they were not carrying a phone. No curtain on the bathroom window. The restaurant at the truck stop next door has good food. Plenty of truck parking at truck stop.
- Cara (8/5): Outstanding service!! - Outstanding service!
- Joni (4/5): - No internet because it was too weak to allow me to connect. No coffee pot or hair blower. Many, many flies
- Nathan (8/5): - The beds are extremely comfortable. They had a grill available to use for guests that made it nice to make something to eat on the grill.
- Francesca (10/5): - It was very clean and the staff was very friendly.
- Elaine (4/5): - Carpet was horrible. Paint job was bad. No ice in machine. Picture fell off of the wall and was placed on the headboard. Could have been a hazard.
- Les (4/5): - The phone had no ring tone..there was trash between the wall and headboard..2lights did not work. Nobody answered the phone when we went to the lobby . Seriously no covering on the window above the toilet and right next to the shower?? We duct taped a pillow case across it
- Karl (4/5): - Nice location
- BRIAN (2/5): DUMP -
Room was cold I could see outside thru heating unit so badly installed. This place is a dump Motel 6 sadly better
- Karen (6/5): - I liked the room but twice we had to call the front desk because a diesl pick up was running right outside our door and the room smelled like diesel fumes
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Rooms are half updated. Bathroom was a bit scary.
- Roy (8/5): - The bed was very comfortable. The TV was very weird could not get a weather channel which was important to our travel requirements. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
- Richard (6/5): - Overpriced for what you get
- Diane (8/5): - Found it to be an adequate place to stay for 1night. No breakfast and nothing close by.
- Donna (10/5): - Like how private hotel is staff is really nice will stay again when in Douglas
- James (8/5): - It was good didn't get in tell late got the room with ease. Left verily early the next morning and was easy to check out
- Zane (8/5): - It was an ok stay for being on a budget. Unusual not to have coffee, hair dryer or kleenex in the room. Ice machine had no ice for 2 of my 4 night stay. My room was clean except for animal hair - lots of it. Quiet.
- Chuck (6/5): - It was fine. Pillows not very comfortable.
Clean and quiet.
- Donna (10/5): - The beds were very comfortable and room was very clean.
- Raymon (2/5): - This property is terrible. Upon entering the office there was a stong odor of Marijuana. This is not a legal state. Over half the outlets in the room did not work. The bathtub water runs non stop. Then we were woke up on a Saturday morning and told to move our vehicles from the parking places infront of our rooms so the could paint lines on the parking lot. Upon voicing concerns about the unprofessional nature of the establishment we were told not thwir problem.they have to do what they have to do. The proce of this place vs what they offer is ridiculous. Literally the only part thatbwasnt bad is that the bed was tolerable
- Suhail (4/5): - Staff was never in the office, housekeeping never came by to offer more toilet paper or towels.
- Annette (10/5): - The front desk staff was super pleasant and nice
- Elaine (4/5): - Was a dirty place. Bedspreads and carpet all stained and dirty. Air conditioner in bathroom so you froze while showering. Curtain was falling off so you could not shut it to keep people from seeing in or light from shining in. Beds were very comfortable though.
- Sandra (8/5): - Room next to me was noisy, but once inside my room, I couldn't hear them.
- Matt (2/5): - I’m not sure where to start, this property needs a total over haul! Bugs in the room, shower sprayed at the wall we wore out sandals in the shower because it was so bad! We won’t ever stay there again!! The truck stop was cleaner then this place! For the price it was ridiculous
- Verified traveler (4/5): Disappointed - Disappointing stay. Attendant was kind. No problems were her fault. Condition of building was poor. First key we were given would not work so we had to go back for another. When we got door open it would not shut all the way and lock again. We had to call office attendant. Even when it was finally locked by employee, there was a gap between the door and the door frame. We were not given even one towel per person. Tub was in poor condition with leaky faucet and mold near window. There was no vent in small bathroom. Beds were comfortable… Yay!
- Rebecca (8/5): - Room was clean and very comfortable. TV, internet, all lights and heater working perfect!
- Ken (6/5): - Staff was good. Property needs updating.
- NABIL (8/5): - Ok place for a night stay
- Tom (8/5): Older, but decent, motel. - This motel was definitely older and could use some work, but was fine for the price - and for one night. It's convenient to shopping and restaurants. The room was fairly large, clean, quiet and comfortable. The staff was friendly and the check-in process was quick and efficient. I would stay here again.
- james (6/5): - Ok
- Alex (4/5): - On site manger was very nice and helpful. But there is serious issue with cleaning. The rooms need a really good deep clean and they would be ok. But looking at the room they just vacuum where it’s convenient and make the bed. Because of covid they only clean every other day but in five nights my room was only cleaned one time, and by clean I mean they made the bed. I had to ask for new towels everyday. On a bright note the bed was very comfortable.
- Robert (8/5): Exactly what was needed - Perfect room and price for a short night stay!
- Bonnie (10/5): - The bed was very comfortable. It was clean and a good size snd had AC. FYI if you have pets please send a note when you reserve it. I had to carry my small pets up stairs. I was lucky she let me stay with them also. But I did call and ask the front desk originally if there was anything else I needed to do and they told me no… anyway its off of a main highway quiet area. The only dislike was they had packets for shampoo it was a little har to open I have no nails….
- Judith (8/5): Interesting - Unable to adjust air conditioner but was able to sleep comfortable. Turning on shower was a challenge
- Robert (6/5): Improved - It was much improved from last time many years ago.
The beds were very comfortable, parking great. Facilities show age.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Property outside looks older but I was impressed by upgrades in the room. A few items such as painting, more towels and heavier bedding would be a suggestion as well as a full time desk person would be great as I had to use the phone at front desk to call someone down.
- Timothy (10/5): - NA
- 822donnav (6/5): Not the best place to stay. - This wasn’t one of the better motels I’ve stayed at. It was one of the cheaper places in Douglas, so I took a chance. Was disappointed that there wasn’t a coffee maker or a hair dryer in the room. The A/C unit was up next to the ceiling and hard to reach, even the step stool provided. Had to call front desk for assistance with it. There wasn’t a box of Kleenex, do had to use toilet tissue instead. Probably won’t stay here again.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - The beds were so high that my 88-year-old friend struggled to get into them, as did I.
There were cigarette butts and other litter outside our door, and an overflowing trash can.
The refrigerator had frost down the entire back which ended in a puddle of green goop.
Will not ever stay there again.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Run dow. The room smelt like smoke and the bathtub ran all night.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - It was fine, some other tenants made me feel a little uneasy. Vibes were off. Women travelers be wary.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We stay here again.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - clean, and friendly. everything we need for a road trip.
- Keith (10/5): Friendly Service! - The Staff were very helpful, kind and friendly. From Dana the Manager, to Laurie the HouseKeeper.
- LTTLauren (10/5): Great place for a great price - We have been here for about 3 weeks now while closing on a house. The rooms are clean, beds are comfortable, and the price is affordable. We stayed with our three cats, and you can't beat her deals anywhere in town. Not to mention, the woman who runs the hotel is beyond sweet. Also, there is a washer and dryer for guests that is super inexpensive. If you want a good place to stay for a while, I would definitely recommend this place.
Also, my cats loved the big windowsills to sit in and watch the world from lol.
- 789barbf (6/5): New beds! Pillows oh so comfy; tub and shower, nice reception, hot water, yes, refrigerator and microwave - Not really too much to say; it is difficult to get to the A/C or heater, they are a team; large room with nice features including the lamps. Lots of bathroom amenities; towels and washcloths nice and white. Good nights rest. A Gideon's Bible is present. Best known for a trucker's stop over if not staying in the cab. Plenty or parking. The property around the motel is cleaner than it used to. Fairly clean.
- ImJustMe218 (10/5): Quiet and Comfortable - This was such a surprise! The price was great, and they give military discount. The room was really clean and freshly painted. We had a king size bed and it was super comfortable! We parked right outside our room and it was easy to get anywhere in town from this location. The person at check-in was friendly and very efficient. Our stay was very relaxing.
- 789barbf (8/5): Since we stayed here a year or so ago, WOW what a change and a good one - Except for having to be 8 feet tall to work with the A/C-Heater, cannot think of too many complaints. It is an older facility and caters to workmen that are in the area and a mid class or others such as we are. The beds were ultra comfortable... the boyfriend said his bed had plastic on it so he did not sleep...mine did not. A little chintzy on the towels but we were only there to sleep, get up and leave.Pillows were nice also.If you stay there, notice the interesting carpet..it will drive you bonkers if iou look too long! It had a Bible which it did not say 3 years ago..as did the Sands in Cheyenne. It was quiet and curtains closed completely so sleep was easy to come by. It is a single story motel.
- Debh961 (8/5): Good place for a good overnight rest. - Budget friendly, comfy room and no complaints. Would stay there again next time we are traveling though without hesitation.. The staff was helpful and it was nice and quiet. Good choice when traveling through Wyoming.
- WYWahoo (10/5): Repeat Customer - We visit here every time that we return to Douglas. We look forward to the clean rooms and friendly staff. The price is right and it's a great value. The place is older and nothing fancy but it is well maintained and run well. We will be back!
- wyotexmex (8/5): Good value - Clean rooms at a great rate. Maids and staff were very friendly, and made you feel comfortable. I would stay again. Great restaurant next door as well as truck parking. Very pleased. I will stay again on my next trip.
- FracItAll1026 (2/5): If i could give less than 1 star i would! - Stayed here as a last resort as all other rooms were booked in Douglas,
Long story short we had many rooms in this hotel, some doors wouldn't stay shut, the only thing clean were the sheets (I hope they were), all rooms stunk of what we weren't sure, front Desk was rude and horribly disorganized, and lastly we had a room where the water line had burst in and the room flooded for several hours (while we were out working) they made no attempt to make things right and tried to blame us for their pipes bursting. I travel all over the US for work and personal trips and this hotel was by far one of the worst I have ever seen. would highly recommend you keep driving if this is the only place left in Douglas with rooms.
- 361marleep (2/5): Terrible and overpriced - We usually stay in similarly priced no frills motels. This motel was priced higher than the last 5 motels we have stayed in. For the $70 we paid it was awful. The bathtub faucet dripped and was stained all along that end. The caulking on the tub and the sink was cracked and looking. The toilet seat was about to fall off. The side of the air conditioner was stained and ugly. A piece of the base board was coming off and looked moldy. The front door drug on the floor and was really hard to open. It also showed light all along one side. It was the worst motel room I have ever stayed in. Was definitely not worth more than $30 a night. Would not recommend anyone staying there.
- prettygirl2000 (10/5): Great service - Dana was so helpful with our room. The room was clean I loved how they placed their towels!!! Super cute!! Would love to see the parking lot redone. But it was a great stay!!! Thank you dana for making our stay special!!
