Most interesting night of our lives. Tornado warning at 5am. Most guests headed to the first floor where we stayed in a hallway. There was no real safe place to go. The front desk couple was so nice though and stayed with us. Power went out also. No back up generator.

The location for this was not too far off the freeway so conveniently close, but not so close since you’re going to hear the traffic. The breakfast was better than some, they had fresh fruit, and freshly boiled eggs instead of the powdered eggs, but we might hv been the one of 5 people staying there that night. I think the owner’s family lived next door to our room, pretty sure his brother was having breakfast right before we did. Just strange that a hotel is pretty much the only thing on that road and it’s not a well-lit road once you’re past the gas station. Room was clean, bed was comfortable enough. Bathroom was fine, it was clean nice and well supplied. The tech in the room was minimal, not sure if we found a USB port. No mini fridge, which I kinda figured was standard in hotel rooms anymore. Even though we had a great MicroTel experience in Cheyenne, the chain appears to vary by location, so that was a lesson learned. The location has a very professional manager/owner, he was very friendly, and accommodating to whatever we asked or needed. Needs a freshly ground coffee machine at the gas station down the street though, lol.

The night manager at the front desk was friendly, but that's where my positive comments end. We checked in after Midnight, exhausted, and unpacked in our room. Shortly thereafter, we realized there was a cockroach on the wall. I took a picture of it. We threw our stuff back in our bags and went back to the lobby. The manager had left the desk, so I left my keycard and we left. I didn't really feel like calling after him; I needed to find a clean bed to sleep in, and it wasn't going to be there. I called the customer care line seeking a refund, and they directed me back to Expedia. Expedia reached out for my refund and it was refused. I was shocked at the sight of the roach, and am very disappointed that a refund won't be given even though I have proof that my room wasn't suitable for someone to stay in. Won't be staying in a Microtel again.

The staff were wonderful and the room was acceptable. However, the bathroom floor was visibly dirty (rag picture was from one swipe of the floor) and both the sink and the shower would not drain properly. Standing in backed up shower water is gross and the sink pivot rod was broken so the stopper would not raise.

We were only there as an overnight on a long drive, so it was tolerable, but absolutely nothing happened to highly recommend this place.

Great find! The rooms are clean and comfortable. Interstate traffic can be a little noisy but can't be helped due to the hotel being so easy to get to from the Interstate. Just plan to run whitenoise before tucking in for the night and you'll have a great night's sleep.

When I called to inquire, the gentleman knew exactly what I left and said he’d keep it safe until we returned. When get came back through to pick it up he had it set aside safely with my name on it.

When we got the hotel, it smelled very heavily of weed and the guy at the front desk was not very helpful. When we got into room itself, it smelled faintly like cigarette smoke. Then around 2:45 in the morning there was drilling and banging on the wall adjacent to our room which woke us up. That said, the hotel was affordable which is always a plus with a last minute booking, and the bed was comfortable.

Ok the stay was good. But the management doesn’t know how to use the credit card system. First he charged me the first night when my friend already paid for it. Instead of giving me a refund he charged a second time. After we we gone I was charged a third time. So 3 times I was charged when it was already paid for. They say they are working on it. What can I do? I won’t be staying there anytime soon.

Stayed the night before heading to the airport in the morning. We happened to be staying around the time of the high school state track and field so every hotel was full and we ended up having to stay here. It wasn’t bad at all. It wasn’t amazing by any means but it got the job done. The lady at the front desk was very nice and we didn’t have any issues while staying here. It is right off the highway and finding the road to the hotel is a little difficult but once you find it, it’s nice and easy. Like I said before it isn’t a luxurious hotel or anything but not a bad place to spend a night. Beds were not super comfortable but serviceable. I would stay here again. You’re getting what you pay for.
