Hotel Room from Hell
1) Deceptive advertising: “Grand Opening” sign, I purchased a room with a King bed with kitchenette as advertised as a “basic room” and got a queen bed in a very tight room. 2) They do not provide breakfast as advertised 3) 1” Stumbling hazard across threshold to dressing area. My wife almost fell. I have a picture of it. 4) Clogged tub drain. I have a picture of it. 5) Filthy desk chair 6) Lamp won’t turn off, had to unplug it 7) TV was unplugged. After plugging it in, it could not be turned off without unplugging it 8) Dead bolt does not lock (privacy and security hazard) 9) The wireless keypad on the outside of the door had been removed and was not secured to the door properly. It looks like someone could have “hot wired” it from the outside and gain access. I have a picture of it. 10) Door jam is broken (looks like the door had been kicked open at one time. I have a picture of it 11) Cockaroaches were discovered while packing up to leave. I killed one and took a picture.

I would not recommend staying here. I got to my room and could easily open the door without a key card, no matter how many times I tried closing the door properly so it would lock. The only way I could lock the room was if I was inside, and I used the little latch at the top of the door. On the morning of checkout (checkout is 11:00 am) I was in the shower at 10:30 am and a cleaner/maintenance person tried entering my room, and when the latch stopped them they knocked for 5 minutes. I exit the shower to see that they have left my door cracked open, with the latch as the only thing stopping the door from opening all the way. If you value privacy and safety I would really shy away from staying here.

When you pull up it might look like the property is abandoned. We got there at 1:30pm and the office was locked because they were cleaning rooms. I called and the manager said it would cost $20 for an early check in so we went and ate instead before coming back after 3:00 for check in. I booked a double queen but when we got to our room it was a single king. I went back to the office and the manager got us into a double queen. The manager was very polite and was a good guy. Our room had a bit of a musty smell but we really didn’t care as we were in town for a football game and just needed a place to crash after the game and the bars. Beds were nice, air worked, as did the fridge. Only 2 miles from downtown so the Uber ride was only $7 both ways and hotels downtown of course were gauging people at $400+ per night while we paid $88. I read another review where it said the area around the hotel was sketchy or unsafe; that is untrue. The Embassy Suites it is not, but if you are looking for a place to crash after a night out this hotel will do the job for the location and price.

We stayed in a ground level room and were shocked to find NO CURTAINS on the windows, which are right over the bed! So anyone walking past our room could watch us sleep. Creepy.

We did not stay here. Photos online were wildly out of date, the facility was much more dilapidated than the photos led you to believe. Sheets were stained, with dried gum and numerous other things I'd rather not imagine. Mattress was also stained, did not trust that it was not currently or at some point infected with bed bugs. Room also had a very strong unpleasant odor.

Horrible & Dirty Hotel
This hotel is horrible. The room was dirty. The floor was filthy, it had not been vacuumed, the coffee maker had dust on it, random canned goods in a drawer, no chair in the room, and the lights did not work. We could only use the bathroom light and one lamp. We had reserved a king-sized bed, the room was a double full bed. The compact fridge was not cold. It was advertised to have breakfast available, but there was none. We arrived late at night and had no other options. We had already paid through the app.

I tried checking in at 3:00. The Manager said room wasn't ready yet, should be about an hour late. I called 1 hour later and he said the system was down. I called after 3 hours and he said the system was still down but not to get a new hotel and that they were open 24 hours. I returned to the hotel at 10 pm and a different manager said that the room had been canceled due to the amount paid being less than other guests. He also mentioned that this happens all the time. As this was a game day in Lincoln there were no other hotels available within 20 miles. This was not a one-off problem, multiple other guests had this same treatment. Do not stay here!!!

We never got a room. They claimed there was a processing issue in their system, we hung around for a couple of hours really needing to get moving, but then ended up leaving. They promised us a room later no matter what and we'd "pay later" like we chose via Expedia, but later after our events and game, they told us they didn't have a room for us and earlier it was just their "polite way" of saying we weren't getting a room since others paid them ahead or more money. Ridiculous. Luckily I had a cousin who lives in town and we were able to stay with her. There were NO other hotel rooms left in town. Do not trust this hotel. Call ahead and confirm things if you have no other choice, and apparently, pay them ahead of time. Ruined our day and trip after driving 7 hours.

This was advertised as a SureStay by BestWestern but it is not. When we arrived, all signage on the motel had been stripped off. It looks like it was acquired by a new owner and not kept to the same standard. At check in, the receptionist informed us that they hadn’t been payed by Expedia yet (though we had payed Expedia at the time of reservation) and couldn’t give us the room yet. He spent a few minutes on the phone with his manager and got it sorted out. The room was disgusting. Smelled strongly of mold and mildew. There were cigarette burns on the bed covers, bugs in the shower, and the sink wouldn’t drain. Cleaning and maintenance was not being performed adequately. It was a very uncomfortable stay and we left as early as possible.

Rating=0 There are no signs to indicate it is a working motel. Myself and my family drove by it because we thought it was condemned. When we arrived and asked to see the room, we were offered a similar room to view. When pressed, my husband and myself were guided to a 2nd floor room. My husband is disabled, which I specified in the booking, so he was not able to see the room that we were booked for. As a concession, staff showed us a ground level room at the opposite end of the motel. The room was musty, had markings on the walls and outlets where repairs need to be done and my husband saw mold along the baseboards. We didn't stay here, but found a different hotel and ate the cost since we didn't cancel 24* before check in.

Too pricey for a dump.
This place is a dump. Nothing like that picture is anywhere on the premises. The first room was like a sauna and the rug actually felt wet. Very hot. The second room, thanks to a very nice front desk clerk, was dirty but cool. TV didnt work.
