Polite staff...clean room...train track.
The staff was very polite and cheerful. Breakfast was good. The only real issue we had was the room had a smell to it that was not pleasing. We bought some air freshener while we were out and that seemed to remedy the problem. Other than that the room was clean. We found out early the next morning there was a train track within 100 feet of our window. Not so bad for the early risers though.
It is right off I-80. Our GPS took us a round-about way only to find that it is about a quarter mile off the interstate.

Better than I expected
I was looking for a cheap hotel near the Omaha zoo and found Western Inn. I thought it would be one of those "you get what you pay for experiences"..but I was over-impressed with the quality of service, comfort of the rooms and the extra goodies that I didn’t even know about - like a really good, hot and free breakfast, warm hot dogs and cookies in the evenings. also, the staff was very friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a great place, especially for the price

Nice place to stay in Council Bluffs, Iowa
Front desk people were pleasant upon check-in and let us know about the hotel policy, when breakfast would be served.
Traveler's tip on saving a few bucks
If you get there early enough you will be treated to hot dogs and warm cookies.
