It was a trip back to the seventies. Coffee pot had burnt coffee in it and when i left it outit wasn't cleaned, just placed back in the holder. The drawers were not clean. The heater started and stopped every 2 minutes and blow right on the beds. All four pillows were different. People were very noisy fighting until 11:00pm every night.

Amazing value, clean, affordable, and comfortable.
The room was way nicer than expected for the price. The room was large, clean, and it had a large tv. Many budget options skimp on the tv size. Everything was clean and worked as expected. I have stayed in rooms double the price that were way worse. Would definitely recommend.

The hotel was clean and conveniently located in downtown Gaylord. Many restaurants within walking distance. It's an older motel, but it was adequate for our night's stay. Some of the bathroom fixtures were newer.

This is the second time we stayed here. The hotel is nothing fancy, but it totally fits what we were looking for. Clean room and clean sheets ! It is located in downtown, therefore it is easy to get to all the excitement of downtown and not have to worry about driving if you like to indulge in the various alcoholic offerings that are available. It is an extremely fun area with a ton of places to visit.

It's an old motel that shows its age, but for the most part the room was kept fairly clean. The pillows were flat and only 2 per queen bed. Even using both pillows it felt like I was resting my head on a board. The sink and surrounding countertop is about 6 inches higher than standard height, so if you need wheelchair accessibility, then forget it. However, the carpet and bed linens were surprisingly clean and unstained, an increasing rarity in today's lodgings. In the late afternoon on a Saturday it was very noisy outside with loud vehicles, loud music, and dope smoking in the parking lot, but it quieted down considerably as the sun set, making it a peaceful night. The price of a room was very high for what you get, but what was available in the surrounding area was twice the price, so it is what it is. There is no breakfast served, but you are very near to fast or slow food dining.
