This place is phenomenal for the price. I’ve stayed in 200+ hotels all over the U.S. (Large majority in the Midwest) and for the price point, I haven’t found a better hotel. Exceptionally clean, easy parking, easy in and out, solid staff. The first floor is a ginormous liquor store with good prices and good selection, which doubles as a convenience store with everything you need. There’s an interior smoke shop, a pool table, ready to eat food, arcade machines, a lottery machine, and all kinds of other novelty purchases at a solid price. Very satisfied with the property conditions and amenities for the price. Will stay here every time I’m even close to the area.

Unique castle architecture, nice spacious room. Figuring out where to park, enter and sign in confusing as it is a property with a large lower level store and liquor store. No breakfast provided, but price of room more reasonable. IHop is on the property.

Let's point out several things. First, the property is basically in a truck fueling facility. This is not an independently unattached motel. Second, the rooms are especially large. Third, the floor in the rooms are concrete and thus the sound travels more fluidly. Lastly, the walls are paper thin, you can hear conversations next door, if you happen to have people next door. The price is very appealing. There you have it. A study in contrasts.
