Judi, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was clean for the most part. However, there were a lot of drink stains on the end table that had not been washed off. The wash clothes oozed blue dye while using it in the shower, the same color as the cloth. During the night, about 3 a.m., someone kept going in and out of their room for a half hour, letting the door slam behind them. It was very loud and disruptive. The pillows were very hard and flat. I would recommend bringing your own if you stay there. The staff were very friendly and helpful though.

I Do Not Recommend

The room itself was adequate. A supposed computer glitch led to my room being cleaned and a large amount of cash going missing. There are no cameras on the second floor and the police have no possible way to conduct an investigation. I would not recommend this motel.

Property is under new management and undergoing updating and renovations. All of this considered found my stay extremely enjoyable. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We'll definitely stay here again and look forward. To seeing how things improve over time.

It served its purpose of a place to sleep. It wasn’t very clean and they said there would be a breakfast, but there wasn’t.

Don’t stay here

We checked in and went to dinner. When we went to our room, we found the beds to be rumpled and unclean - stained sheets, hairs, and not made. We went back downstairs to ask for help, but staff had left for the night. There was a note with a number to call for help, but no one answered. Left a voicemail, but no one ever called back. Called Hotels.com, but they were useless and have refused to give us a refund. We went to the other hotel down the road and paid directly. Now we’re out over $400. Don’t stay here.

6/10 Good

It was okay....

The staff was nice, but if i would have seen them.on the street i wouldnhave thought they were drug addicts. They appeared to be living at the hotel and work there for their rent. Breakfast was some brwakfast sandwiches, bananas and prepackaged cereals on the counter along with bottled water, OJ and milk that was just sitting out. Th room was clean, but thats about all I can say. The room.next to me was propped open for the 2 days i was there with nothing foing on in it - messy sheets like there was no servixe on the weekend. The only reason i felt safe was because this is Wascea and what kind of criminal element would live in Waseca.

We came in on Wed. afternoon and left Sunday morning. Our room was not cleaned even once. I had to ask for clean towels and trash bags. I did bring it to their attention Fri. morning but they just said they were real busy.

2/10 Poor

Most unprofessional motel manager of all time

If you can, stay somewhere else. We initially booked our room for one night. For a cheap motel the room was fine as it was fairly clean and had basic amenities, no microwave in the room, but for a cheap motel it was perfectly acceptable. The customer service, however, was a completely different story. Our first night there we had a pretty late night/early morning so around 9am the next day I rebooked our room online so we could stay and sleep into the afternoon. Sometime between 10 and 11am we received a call from the front desk stating that I had to sign some paperwork for the extra night. I said that I would come down sometime in the afternoon after we woke up to sign the document, at which time I was told that if I didn't come down to sign before 11, I would be charged a late check out fee. FOR A ROOM I BOOKED ON CONSECUTIVE DAYS. So I got out of bed, got dressed, and went down there. Then at about 1pm I got another call that they were coming down to our room to talk to us. Upon arrival they stated that someone had complained that they thought someone was "smoking drugs" in the motel to which we said, "Do you smell anything in here?" and they went away. Then then next day and I find an additional $150 charge on my debit card and when I called them they stated that there were make up stains on the comforter, which was true (but do they not have washing machine??), and also damages to the tub, which was absolutely untrue. Most unprofessional "hospitality" staff ever.
