The check in lady was super friendly, the room was clean, except for a few flies in the shower. Bed was comfortable. Old hotel, but owners are remodeling and making it nice. It was a pleasant stay.

This place was nice - nothing wrong with it at all. For a small town hotel it was better than we expected. Bed was comfortable, nice size tv and wonderful shower. A couple walls needed to be wiped down from hand prints but overall it was a nice place to stay.

Basic but good.

We basically just slept here. The room was comfortable and clean. The room had a bit of a musty smell as the a/c wasn’t on. I would suggest running the dehumidifier consistently to improve that. The sink was a pedestal type with no shelf space at all. The sheets were good quality and the beds had 2 covers.

It's a little off the beaten path, but the town was super cute and the lady at the front desk was wonderful with a warm welcoming smile at the end of a long day's journey. The beds were really comfy and it was a slice of Americana I feel is becoming harder and harder to come by.

The facility was older and could use some updating. The rooms were very clean and having a refrigerator with a freezer and a microwave made the stay a great place as a base as we toured the area. The family that runs the hotel were helpful pleasant,

Price to high

Way over priced, no breakfast, no space in the bathroom to put anything, no place to hang any clothes on hangers. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean, but the lighting seems very dim, wish there was a light over the sink in the bathroom to help the dimness. It worked for what we needed it to work for but the nightly price was way to much. I don't think we would ever stay there's again.

This is the only Motel in Guthrie, so there was NO other choice. This is a NO frills motel. Basically a bed and a shower. There is no place to hang clothing. No extra blanket. No hair dryer, no iron or ironing board. Front office offers bottled water. The owners are very pleasant. Towels are nice and soft.
