This was a perfect base camp to explore Brady and the area surrounding. The property was older, the room was clean. All in all, a positive experience and I would book another stay there, so much to see and do!

I checked in on expedia which was very easy however it took 20 minutes took check in at the front desk. All my information had to be put in manually by the desk clerk. He stated the owner has it set up that way. He was very nice and apologized for the delay but I feel like there should be an easier way when we book online.

It’s an older motel that is keep very clean and very tidy. It doesn’t have the luxury of your name brand motels. If you’re looking for an economical price and spend a comfortable night this is the place. Our room had a king bed, refrigerator, coffee pot, hair dryer, iron/board, ice vending machine, color tv, small dining table with chairs. If you need anything the owners are there to assist you.

I mean, this is not a 5-star hotel, but it's really great for the price your in Brady, in the middle of nowhere, and if you don't feel like spending $200 a night at the Holiday Express, you can't beat this place. The rooms are always clean, the beds are comfortable, the showers are clean, the TV works, the fridge works, and the microwave works. It's an excellent bang for your buck. I stay here every time I come to Brady.

Quaint and Clean

The hotel was very clean and maintained. The fact there was not only a good size desk but a small table for two available was nice. The staff was very friendly. The only downside was that the shower head probably needed to be updated as there was hardly any pressure. Overall a good little hotel and I would definitely stay there again.

No frills...

This is a basic hotel with no frills. The room was clean but smelled of mold. My concern was that there was no smoke alarm. Overall, I would stay there again.

Check in took forever

The most disappointing part was the check in. It took over 20 minutes for the man to check in the ppl in front of me. Then I had the same experience. He clearly didn’t know what he was doing. He asked me 3 times if my reservation was for one night. When he was done he handed me the previous guest’s ID! Both myself and the other ppl had a reservation that he couldn’t even find them. The room was decent. I wouldn’t say the bed was comfortable but it wasn’t awful. The room was clean and for a good price.
