Hilander Motel

What guests think

At Hilander Motel, travellers describe a budget, older property with very friendly staff, generally quiet stays for some, but mixed experiences overall due to dated rooms, noticeable wear, smoke smells in some non-smoking rooms, and occasional noise from nearby trains.

Cleanliness feedback is mixed: many found rooms clean, while others reported stained furnishings, lingering smoke, and isolated pest issues. Room comfort is basic with no frills; beds range from comfortable to too firm, and climate units can be loud despite being effective. Ongoing refurbishment and basic facilities are noted, with limited breakfast options (often just coffee). Best for budget-minded stays that prioritize price over polish.

Very old hotel. Very spartan. Small room with concrete block walls. Not even drywall. Poor part of town. Noisy heater. Trains across the street every couple hours. Cat meowing outside all night. Dirt parking lot. Lights outside shown into room all night through thin drapes. My wife struggled to sleep.

July 2025 Killed 3 roaches (-3 stars) in bathroom area as soon as walking into room. Saw 2 more in the morning. The room was pretty clean. The bed was not very comfortable. A little too hard for me. Had a mic and fridge. They had an ice machine, so I was able to fill my water container with ice. The check-in guy was kind and courteous. The area was quiet. The air conditioner worked well. We were just passing through and stayed for one night and the price was a lower cost than others.

The motel is a bit tired, but the staff was really friendly. The grounds could use some TLC. The beds were comfortable, though the linens were put on a little oddly. There was adequate parking for our large truck & trailer.

Nice comfortable quiet motel property undergoing needed refurbishment. I did use earplugs to deal with the very very loud (but efficient) heating/cooling unit and shower could stand an upgrade to more space and a shelf for soap and shampoo.

It was a non smoking room but that wasn’t the case. Perhaps because we are allergic/sensitive to smoke/ it was a rough night. Man checking is was nice. If you truly want a non smoking room- don’t stay here.

It was run down, furniture looked like thrift store, smelled like old smoke, cracks in ceiling, paint and walls dirty, dingy. And it cost over $100. It would’ve been acceptable for around $45.

It was okay for the price. The room was supposed to be a non-smoking room, but it smelled of stale smoke. The bathroom was well maintained, but the carpet in the main room was stained and frayed. The desk clerk was very friendly and helpful.

There is a hole at the bath entrance, carpet only thing keeping you from falling through. Toilet seat 100 years old and falling apart, curtains have so many holes, looks like shotgun did it, door barely locks to the room. If I had not driven 950 miles and was dead on my feet I would have got my money back and went elsewhere. 3 out 100
