Fred’s Inn is a clean comfortable minimalist motel. This was our second stay here. The people are nice. The rooms are clean and the bed is comfortable. We can’t ask for more. Conveniently located for our child’s college.

4/10 Poor

Verified traveler

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service

No cleaning

It’s dated and a little shabby. Lighting in the room was terrible, no way to read in bed. Considering it is on a main road, the room was quiet. My major objection however is that my room was never cleaned, although I put out the “please make up the room” hangtag every day. The housekeeper would change it to a “do not disturb” tag every day. When I finally complained to a manager, he said the owner would get in touch with me to remedy the situation, but he never did.

Very considerate

Short stay, we were late to check in and was pleasantly surprised when we got a call from Robert letting us know the office was closing for the night, but what room we were in and where we could find our key! Now that’s service! Thank you!

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The woman checking us in was also tending bar. We waited 15 minutes to get checked in. She wasn't friendly and only said we would be charged if we smoked, had a loud party, or had pets. No welcome, no smile. It was like we were an imposition. The sheets were stained and dirty. We found 2 black spiders in the bathroom and one one crawling down the bed. The only good thing about the property was the maid, who was friendly and doing her best. They need to do a better job laundering sheets and get pest control to treat the property.

It’s hard to find a good hotel in a smaller town sometimes but Fred’s inn was great. Clean, easy check in, and they serve food till 9pm if you need it. The stay was perfect and the price reasonable. If I had to go back to that town I would stay there again
