The building was clean and in good repair, from what I could see. Around the property was pretty unattractive. Parking lot lacking. Not much outside care seems to be given. Those I met were very nice and helpful, as always. The outside around the building could use a face lift for sure, but I would recommend the motel, which I did this last visit to Oskaloosa. Two other families joined us.

The hotel was under construction, so that was a surprise. However, they only did work between 8-5, so it didn't interrupt my sleep at all. The room I had was really nice and obviously very recently renovated. I'm usually a Marriott loyalist, but I chose this b/c it was $100 cheaper than the Fairfield Inn, and I have to think that the room was just as nice. The breakfast was really good (yogurt, cereal, fruit ... and instead of the usual wet eggs, it was biscuits and gravy that tasted homemade).

I did not like the breakfast, it was leftover from previous days and tasted bad. There is no elevator so had to carry luggage up the stairs. I had to leave early for an emergency, and they would not give me a refund.

The hotel was fine for what it was. Not a high-end hotel, but that's not what I was looking for. Bed was comfortable, A/C & heater quiet, room good size, overall quiet. They were doing some remodeling while I was there, so some tools and equipment in the halls, etc. but did not affect my room or my stay. Very convenient location, but then, nothing in Oskaloosa is very far from anything else!

It is not very pleasing to find blood on the top sheet on multiple spots. So I slept with no covers. And the next room had a person that snored like a freight train. It was not a good stay.

Our room was not cleaned well before we arrived. The toilet had little bits of what looked like black dried feces in the bowl. The shower curtain was discolored at the bottom and the rim of the sink basin had hair and dirt up under it. The towels and wash cloths were stained.

Desk staff were efficient but not outgoing. Location is quiet and a little out of the way for many travelers. Basic no-frills motel. Beds are comfortable. Hot water is no problem. A variety of dining places within a short drive. Good breakfast with hot and cold selections, but options were not replaced as they were used up, so if you come late there are fewer options. Would choose this motel again if staying in the area.

Staff can be way more helpful and nicer to his clients no matter how they book. Entire hotel smells like a casino and breakfast is the same all week and seems like it’s just re-heated/recycled day to day. I’ve been staying at the budget inn down the road instead for better prices clean rooms and better location.

There are a lot of low to mid-range options in Oskaloosa. You would think the property would want to cater to families. Breakfast was HORRIBLE. Two cereal options, bread to make toast and fruit that was not fresh. There were ZERO protein options. There were ZERO hot items. This was a huge disappointment. When we return to Oskaloosa our business will be going somewhere else.
