The room was small but it was just me staying there so it worked. The room was clean and in good condition. I liked the location close to stores and restaurants. I would stay there again if I'm down in the area.

Parking was right outside my door. Room was dated but clean. Everything in the room worked as it should. The young boy at the front desk seemed to be a little lost when I was trying to check-in. But the lady that came along was more than helpful. Great stay for the money. Will stay there again when in sedalia. Plenty of places to eat within walking distance as well as a large grocery store across the street. The microwave in the refrigerator in the room.Both worked excellent.

Got my money's worth.
Cleaner than most older motels. Small but was more than adequate for an overnight stay on a hunting trip. Heat/air unit was quiet and there was a good sized TV to watch. Plenty of restaurants nearby.

Ample parking area, and the surroundings were quiet and peaceful. Not on the main street, so there was minimal traffic noise. Nice clean rooms and clean bathrooms. Large TV screen, and ample room to put luggage and move around. Comfortable bed and pillow. Much needed air conditioner kept the temperature just right!

The room had flies, cobwebs, and was musty. There was food left in the microwave. The staff was really nice, so I feel bad with this review, but I would never stay here again.

Didn't like 3 police cars & ambulance in the parking lot. And if someone drives or walks in at night, the parking lot lights up like a scene from a murder. Not exactly making staying there feel safe. Room appeared to being very recently updated but the TV is put where you hit it each time you use the bathroom (I'm 6'2"). Took forever to check in. Had to stay in the 'vestibule' which had NO air conditioning and after 5 minutes I had sweated thru my shirt. Was in there a good half hour before getting the key pad that wasn't programed so had to walk back down to get that fixed.

I chose this because it was the cheapest option. I did not expect much, but the room looked like there'd been no updates on the room (aside from DIY repairs) since the 70s. It looked very dirty in the bathroom (where there is no counter) with mold on the walls (likely because there was no bathroom fan. Also, paprr thin walls and venting lets you hear EVERYTHING nearby. If it was a little more private and clean, this place would be awesome.

Not worth the price
I got there a little early than check in time, she told me she was waiting on my sheets to get done so she could make the bed, not a problem she checked me in and I went to go get something to eat, bed was made room clean but dated not a problem with me, going to bed I pulled the comforter and sheets back, the comforter had stains and so did the sheets, went to work next day came back room clean but only 1 cup left for coffee for Wednesday, not a problem thought they would put more in when they cleaned again, much to my surprise came back from work room was not even touched, the rest of the week didn’t clean or empty trash and not even the sheets or anymore towels or coffee until Friday, emptied trash gave towels no coffee and didn’t even change the sheets, I’m glad I booked on line I would no pay the 50 dollar charge if you just walk in, even booking on line was still a little to much for there. Good location for restaurants though

They tried to charge me a pet fee for my medical alert dog which is illegal. When I got to the room, there was no toilet paper. The “white” towels were washed but were so stained up they were disgusting. The towel racks and toilet paper holder were torn off and missing. The tub had mold. Then later that evening out came the Roaches (big and small). Upon checkout I waited for them to inspect the room and she asked where the ice bucket was. There was no ice bucket to begin with. The bedding was washed but stained. The pillows were paper thin. Just not a good experience!

This is the second worst place Ive ever stayed in. Dont go cheap 56.00 lus 40.00 deposit.
Sfilth. Pubic hair in tub, no soap, yellow towels(supposed to be white)stains on sheets and black specs also, floor had dirty qtip and crumbs on gloor and someones tags off clothes on top shelf where clothes hang. Asked for tefind and showed front desk the filth and refised to give refund even though I did not stay having to ask a friend to come get me over a hour each way. When taxi dropped me off they said dont go out by myself after datk because they TRAFFIC people out of there.
