Gerry's was so easy to park and check in. The owner was right there when we arrived and gave us the key and showed us where we were staying. The motel has a guide which my husband and I found very interesting to read. Great people, super clean place. Would stay there again!

Perfect finale to our vacation
We had a great time at Gerry’s. The host couple were helpful and “salt of the earth” type people. Clean and convenient perfect for our last night before heading to the airport. Eat at the Prairie Dust Bar- and be sure to try the walleye fingers!!

Room(s) were very clean and convenient, with microwave and fridge in each. I booked a room with two beds, but got two rooms, with one bathroom connecting the two rooms. Actually quite convenient, since I wake up during the night and get up early whereas my wife sleeps late. My wife says it's the best motel yet on our trip. Area has not much to offer. A couple of bars that serve hamburgers, etc, very near the motel. Friendly crowd in the one where I got a hamburger.

This an old-fashioned motel. The rooms are small but the bed was firm and comfortable. The ac worked just fine. It had everything you typically get in a chain motel, minus a coffee pot in the room. There was a pot of coffee made in the lobby, though, which was kind of weak but it was hot. Best of all, everything was very clean and our hostess was super pleasant.

Called on cell phone, accused of stealing
The room was fine. My complaint is that after we left the property, I got a call on my cell phone asking if I took one of the pillows in a very accusatory tone. I didn't steal any pillows (or anything else) from Gerry's Motel. We've stayed at dozens of places over the years and I've never been called on my cell phone and accused of stealing. It was shocking, especially since I hadn't stolen anything. I would not stay there again.

I never used the words did you steal my pillow. I asked if you accidently taken a pillow from the room . You stopped and looked and never found any extra pillow and that is all wanted you to do. How else do you ask with out feeling like your accusing. Sorry you felt that way.
