It it a very old building. Some updates have been made but many more could be done. The carpet looked new and some of the tile in the bathroom. It was clean and the bed was pretty comfortable. It was very small - especially the bathroom. You had to stand in front of the toilet in order to open and shut the door. The opening for the shower was behind the bathroom door so you had to have the bathroom door closed in order to get into the shower. It served it's purpose for the one night we needed it for and the owner was friendly.

Extra $25 fee for checking in late ??? Shows 3 different office hours. Windows were dirty and needed paint in places. Owner barely speaks English. Used to be a great place to stay until change of owners.

Locks and latches on inside and outside doors need to be updated. The bathroom door latch is faulty in room 12. I couldn't unlock it from inside and had to have someone in the other room open the door to let me out. Out side door lock needed to be jiggled to open from outside the room. The room was "quaint" but could use an update.

This is a nice motel and perfect for an overnight stay. It is an old fashioned drive up to your door motel which is what we prefer. We have stayed here passing through the area for years and plan on continuing to do so.

They don't have ice! No vending machines that I could see, there was only 1 towel for showering for 2 people and the room smells bad. But we needed a place to sleep. But the price was okay

The Budget Inn Long Prairie has very clean rooms. They are older but the price reflects that also. I will stay there again next year.

Though the owner seemed nice enough, the battery was dead in our smoke detector when we stoned and the room was gross. It appeared clean at face value, but the sheets were actually filthy (some sort of orange substance) on both beds and there was an empty chew can on the floor next to the bed.

Bad booking
When i booked online, one of my criteria was that i wanted pet friendly but the first rooms to come up were nonsmoking. Not one listed said that these rooms were NOT for pets. They were the first ones listed. Please, please, if i ask for pet friendly rooms, list them first!!!

The bathroom was not as clean as it should have been. Cleaners need to clean in corners, by the hinges on the toilet stool and the soap basin in the shower. This is an older motel that has had a face-lifting of sorts. Also, the shower head was barely 5 feet off of the floor. Had to stoop to wash my hair.

Go to the Bates motel instead
I would have stayed at Bates motel over this place! They made us stay in a smoking room because we had a pet. That should have been written in the small print. The room smelt so bad like stale smoke it was sickining! The only plus was it killed the smell of the mildew in the bathroom. Towels and sheets had staines all over them. The whole place could use a bleach bath.

Owners very nice. Let me check in early. Rooms are old and dated. Carpet needs replacement. Bathroom was gross - not clean at all. Only stayed one night so doable.

The rooms were clean and adequate. We were there for one night and everything worked as it should. We did have a small incident. One of the men walked to close to the bed and caught and tore his pant leg on the frame the extended out from the mattress and box spring. The price was reasonable.

Close to wedding event.
The manager walked in on us, without knocking, to check the plumbing. The shower water was not consistant, it was either too hot or too cold.
