Very clean hotel
Our room was very clean and in very good condition. The breakfast was basic, but the room was clean. There is no shopping within walking distance and only one restaurant (Mexican food), which was next door, but the food was mediocre.

Good little motel
It's the only motel in Ellsworth so really there's no choice where to stay but it was very clean and the owners are very pleasant and accommodating. The showers are not all that great but doable. It is quiet which is good for me as I work night shift and sleep during the day.

We were in the area for a wedding so I had to stay here fir a night. I was disappointed in the cleanliness. The bottom if the tub was dirty and there was used soap in the shower.

For a small motel they are a top notch place.
This was a great place to stay. The room was clean and perfectly kept. We checked in late and the clerk was very helpful and professional. The property is well cared for. At checkout they were friendly and welcomed us back. It was a pleasant experience. I would commend them.

I originally scheduled my reservations thru Online. I needed to cancel my second nights stay. I contacted the online customer service and they advised me to contact the property direct, since I would be paying direct to the property. So I called and canceled the second night. Then a couple days later I was able to stay both Friday and Saturday, so I called the property and requested my reservations be updated to 2 nights, but I would only need one bed, not two. They agreed. But when I got there I was placed in a room with 2 queen beds. I attempted to explain I had scheduled for a room with 1 queen bed, they pretended not to understand, as English is not their first language.

I went to Ellsworth to meet a “long lost” cousin and needed a place to stay where my 95 pound pup would be welcome. The town is the middle point between our homes, each of us driving several hundred miles. The motel is modest and in a rural area 8 miles from I-70 if you are heading East, and 11 miles heading West. The young man at the front desk was very pleasant and efficient. He gave me a room that was close to an area where I could walk the dog. It was a reasonable price for the room and the pet fee. The remodeling that is been done was nice and everything was clean. I was happy about how quiet the room was, even with big rig trucks and a railroad close by. Being a Sunday afternoon, the steakhouse next door was closed, but the Mexican restaurant was open, and the service and food was good. Decide there is colorful and fun. Seats of the booths need repair, but they were comfortable. Around 5 am, I had packed up and thought I had everything, but realized I had left an important item in the room, but, as was my habit, I left the room key on the dresser. I had to go to the office to get a duplicate made. The woman was so very kind about it. Overall, my brief stay met all my needs and I had a good stay. I would stay here again if I go back to the area.

The did not appear to have any single rooms with two beds. No soda/ice machines that we saw. Room was ok. Sink faucet was very hard to use. Fan in bathroom had no individual control and was very loud. Maid opened door w/o even knocking.

6 our 7 nights were fine.
The owner of this property is making every effort to keep everything good. However, beyond his control, one of our nights the weather was very cold and 18 Wheeler trucks parked about 50 feet from our room's door and ran the diesel engines all night and the noise kept sleep to a minimum. They did change my room the next day, but would not change it that night even though the room they moved me to was available. So beware in taking rooms 104 - 128.

Clean and convenient, not without issues.
Next time we book a room at the hotel, we will request that the room is not on the North side. There were 4 Semi trucks parked and running all night long. We weren't very impressed with the Continental breakfast. In fact, we went to the store and purchased food.

The staff were friendly and helpful, and accommodating to our changed schedule. Our room had no external windows, and was very stuffy. The bed was comfortable-loved the recliner chair. The breakfasts were very poor, with very few options. It was very disappointing, even for a budget motel. Location was convenient, but noisy with trucks and traffic. The toiletries were very skimpy--really, not worth putting them out.

The overall condition of this property far exceeded my expectations. The rooms were among the cleanest I've ever seen. The bed, furniture, art, and big flat screen TV in the room were also beyond expectations. The pool area and the breakfast served were lacking, but overall, I highly recommend this place and will stay there again!

Ok because you are in Ellsworth
The bathrooms are tiny, and they have holes in the paint/wallboard, the shower head would be good on my garden hose as a power washer, not so great for a shower, the heater was suffocatingly HOT, or the room was cold. The owners are nice!
