Clean room and facility. Good rates, beds and updated bathroom… however the petite toilet was not comfortable for a grown male. Staff was friendly and the free breakfast was acceptable. I’d stay here again.

The Walleye Inn is a decent value for the money. No frills or breakfast but the room was nice. The room had just the basics but was nice, clean and comfortable. The bed was nice and comfortable to sleep in. Staff was very nice and attentive.

It was ok

Second time staying. Reasonable priced for the area. Dog friendly. Both times were very noisy stays (pipes, outside noise, heat, etc). Shower needed work as it it didn’t have full pressure. Bed was way better than last time. Might be because we didn’t have a dog accepted room?

It was quiet and clean. Seems they are updating with new flooring, paint and new bed (very comfortable) and dresser/countertop. But, there were no chairs in the room and only one bedside table for a king bed.
