This was the best night stay I've had on a last minute road trip. It was very quite, the bed was comfy and I got my deposit back in about 3 days! I wasn't expecting it because these places usually don't honor it but I did receive my deposit! That and how quite it was deserves a 5 star in my opinion!

Price is right

The room was clean, the staff was nice and the price was right. The parking lot is in need of repair, screens on windows need to be replaced and the outside needs attention with landscaping. The pool looked fine but was closed and the breakfast consisted of waffles, toast, cereal milk and coffee. The lobby has a distinct incense smell. Overall was fine for a quick trip to Topeka and a place to spend the night.

Great budget friendly place to stay

It’s a great budget friendly place with good amenities. Great staff. And the owner is really good and friendly. However, breakfast is not good. I stayed here for a week and did not have any issues. They were accommodating for my accessibility needs as well.

Property was above average for me. Clean, interior seemed well maintained, and modernized a bit. One issue I had was the height of the shower head. It was ridiculously low. And the faucet handle was weak. Should be replaced.

We stopped just for the night on our road trip (2 adults and 3 kids), and this hotel worked well. Price was great, and we loved the fact that we were able to get 2 queen beds and a sofa bed for the same price we could get 2 double beds at other nearby hotels. Main drawback: breakfast was really minimal. Toast, cheerios, muffins, and a waffle maker. No fruit, no jelly, no peanut butter, nothing fresh.

When you arrive the first thing you'll notice is the smell. Right when you walk in it smells like smoke. TV didn't work and they couldn't fix the issue nor offer a solution. Maybe bring in another TV, have me switch rooms? Restroom was very small, the door couldn't fully open because it kept hitting the shower rod. The AC unit wouldn't allow me to turn on the fan mode which would of helped drown out the cars on the highway and the couple fighting in the hotel parking lot across from us. Night clerks staff was very engaging and friendly.

Disappointing! Would not recommend.

Disappointing stay. I got excited by the fact it had a pull out sofa after a long time on the road sharing a bed with kids I was ready for them to be somewhere else. But avoid this place. It was not super clean. Tv nor the phone worked. No elevator and we were on the second floor. Went down to complain about the tv but no resolution.
