The owner Dill is very accommodating and super nice. He’s got the pool and hot tub renovated and opens the bar for you if you ask. It’s quaint, clean, cozy, offers breakfast too.

We did a walk-in to make a reservation late at night. We were greeted by the owner, who was extremely helpful and made sure our needs were being met. Got a quick room that had a king bed and a tub. You can tell there is still remodeling going, which we were told right away, but the remodel did not affect our stay at all!! He did mention the breakfast, pool/hot tub, message place, and much more amenities!! Now we have a place to stay when we come visit Salina. As well, getting to support small businesses.

I'm giving this 5 stars for what it is. It is a budget hotel, but one of the best you'll find. I guarantee you won't find something this good for these prices. You can tell it's being remodeled and we had a nice chat with the owner too. You can see he is working his rear off to fix it up and is so very nice! Bed was comfy, room clean and the heater/ac unit was actually very quiet. Yeah, it's not perfect, but you can actually afford to stay and be comfortable.

This is a no frills hotel, is it fancy? No.... but if your looking for a basic hotel, that's clean and has a bed and shower, and you don't really care about fancy luxury 400.00 a Nighy hotel, this Is perfect.... it's a bit dated (think 90s simple) but obviously taken care of. It's got a bed, tv, small fridge, great shower, weirdly amazing pillows and a dresser. It's clean, it's quiet in the room, parking lot was packed and it was quiet all night. The front desk ladies were sooooo friendly and inviting, The pool is fantastic. I was leary of a cheap hotel I'd never seen In person but I deff recommend it and will stay again

Just a short walk from the city go bus stop this place has the best weekly rates in town! Service is friendly and rooms are clean and quiet. TV works good and pool is operable. Don't forget to grab some waffles in the morning between 6-9! Update Edit: Breakfast is only free for nightly guests. 3 dollars if you are weekly
