The room was clean and comfortable. The shower was fantastic, nice hot water, excellent pressure. Easy room access, not so easy street access. Office didnt open until, i think it was 3 pm, though, which was slightly inconvenient for my stay that particular day.

For a quick overnight, it was really easy. However, we were in Nebraska during the 90+ temperatures, and the room was hot (maybe 80) when we got there at 11pm. It never cooled down, despite the A/C on all night (it was on when we got there, but I'm guessing not for long, as it wasn't cool). That made for a poor night's sleep...and we had a long drive the next day! The breakfast was a sack-lunch affair with only a few items (which we kind of expected, but my gluten-free spouse couldn't eat hardly any of it). Good for a night, and the bed was nice! Just wish it was cooler.

The one night stay was ok. Would stay there again due to convenience of close proximity to the interstate highway. Beware of extra charge $25 tax if you’re staying with a pet.

This is located in an industrial area. I can’t say it was unsafe but it felt a little unsafe. Room was clean and staff very nice. Breakfast was a granola bar, applesauce, and a bottle of water so that was a little disappointing.

Rooms are small, little dated, but not bad for price. It was advertised as having breakfast, but only had a brown sack with fruit, granola bar and bottle of water.

The free breakfast consisted of a pre-bagged breakfast, we were not given a choice of what foods. Due to allergies & other health issue, I was not able to eat any of it. The bedding was so thin as to be non-existence. This motel is located in Lincoln, Nebraska and it was winter, so the bedding didn't provide any warmth. As this is the case for every motel I've stayed in for the last few years, this seems to be the normal. I have started taking an electric blanket in order to be warm while sleeping.

When I arrived, I was told I needed to give them a $200 cash deposit. I had already paid for the room, they had my CC on file and it was close to 11 PM. I ended up staying in my truck - wouldn't recommend this place to an enemy.

Paid for a room for someone who was without a place to stay to sit out a blizzard. A $200 cash deposit was required. Hotel would not take a credit card over the phone. Needed to drive 25 miles in snow to get this person in a safe place.
