Solid
I think we can all agree that we're not getting a luxury experience at this price, but it's an agreeable, clean place to stay near quite a few restaurants and businesses.

Quick night's stay

Clean and quiet.
It was comfortable and cozy. The room was clean and the staff was pleasant.
The only "complaint" was that breakfast didn't have a lot of choices, but with Casey's next door, we got what we wanted.
Overall, it was a nice stay.

Comfortable pit stop
Cute, clean, easy to get to from the highway. Setup of the hotel is quirky but nothing crazy. The room was comfortable, checking in was easy and was what I needed to break up a long drive.

The hotel is clean and we'll maintained. It seems to be near everything. The only issue was that he dump truck and trailer parked sideways blocking 9 of the best parking spots in the rear lot for our whole stay, my wife is disabled and the walk was somewhat of a issue for us. The breakfast is not great with few options but fine considering the price.

One night stay for quick trip to the Omaha Zoo
My fiancé and I stayed for one night, and actually enjoyed our stay for much! Very affordable for a weeknight stay, and the staff was very friendly. The king bed room was the perfect size for just one night and was very clean other than some minor or signs of aging. Overall, would recommend staying here!
