I would definitely come back.

I went to Kearney for a wrestling tournament. I brought my 57 and nine-year-old children with me. I paid for the room in advance and when I got there, they were extremely nice and courteous to me. The morning breakfast is very simple, but the coffee was excellent. The room was clean perhaps a little outdated, but it was an excellent day for the price that I paid. I would definitely come back.

Best deal, safe and clean

Clean room, especially the bathroom. Furniture was not newest, but was everything we needed for an overnight, all in good repair, and frankly we could appreciate that pieces didn't all match for sale or environment and economic factors. Breakfast was small and cold, but filling and fresh. Heat/AC worked great. Frankly this was the best we have gotten for such a rate. Oh, and the beds had clean linens, variety of pillow types, and medium firmness, for those that need to know.

I would never stay here again. The water that came out of the bath when I turned it on was dirty and rusted colored, I did not take a shower that night which pissed me off and the room felt like it could use a deep clean, and maybe a coat of paint, the bed was decent,the pillows sucked, and the sheets were questionable.
