It was a one night stopover. Dated rooms. Air conditioner loud and blew directly on the bed. No towel racks and No Hair Dryer. Five stars to the VFW, only restaurant in town, people very friendly and food was good.

Great location, very nice remodel. Comfy bed, really nice to have a fridge and microwave. However, I don't think there is any soundproofing, you can hear every door slam and neighbor conversation. Bring earplugs. Also, you have to turn the key and the doorknob at the same time, making it impossible to get into the room with anything in your hands.

Clean room and facility. Good rates, beds and updated bathroom… however the petite toilet was not comfortable for a grown male. Staff was friendly and the free breakfast was acceptable. I’d stay here again.

The Walleye Inn is a decent value for the money. No frills or breakfast but the room was nice. The room had just the basics but was nice, clean and comfortable. The bed was nice and comfortable to sleep in. Staff was very nice and attentive.
