Friendly front desk staff. Inexpensive . Our room was clean. It is not fancy but adequate. We had to get off the freeway during a snowstorm and just took the first hotel room we could find to get out of the weather. The biggest issue we had was the room air freshened they used. Very strong so we opened the... More

Stayed here a couple of days ago. Hotel sure shows it age, especially the carpet. I did like the auto soap dispensers. There was no problem with heat in our room. The ice machine was broken but the front desk lady did her best and got me ice from a room freezer. The best thing was the free shuttle to... More

My two friends and I stayed here because all the rooms at the Casino were booked. From a distance, this Inn already looked like the kind of place that people get murdered in movies. As we pulled up by the lobby door, we noticed that the word "open" was written on the sign in red marker, which was not doing... More

I have never been so disgusted by a hotel before! When we checked in I had to kill bugs that were in the room by the small fridge and microwave. These were bugs I have never seen before and I made the front desk agent come up and grab it because I was not about to touch it. She even... More

1.) The only reason that my Fiance and i stayed here is because Days Inn and Grand Casino was booked.2) It reminds me of the Hotel from Psycho mixed with a cheap white trash hotel that you would go to keep a secret. 3.)

Our room was very clean, and everything worked as needed. Our room was upstairs in the back unit... Very nice vaulted ceiling, fresh wallpaper, and wood beams. Feels comfy. All staff were friendly and helpful. While it's not a top-of-the-line fancy hotel, it provides a quiet night's sleep at a reasonable price. I would stay here again!

I ended up staying here only because I was going to a concert at the Hinckley Casino, and they were booked for the night. Amazingly, the price on this place was $70, which was even more than the casino. To start with, the key card system on the outside doors and the room doors was broken, so to be let... More

NO security like it says. Never had to use the card key to open the door. There was however a handyman that was living in... More
