Room had recently been painted, had a new floor installed, small kitchenette added (2 burner stove, small red and sink). Everything was clean and fresh. I didn't have any issues and sleep great. I found it a great value. ##### Gary Stayed 1 night in May 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Patrick Jun 13, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Very decent for the price and private. Stayed here while attending a bike rally nearby. It's a nice private place to stay and they do keep it decently clean. The place itself is in need of upgrades and the finishes are cheap and have wear and tear. Overall it was a good place to stay and we were comfortable and enjoyed the privacy. Has a functioning kitchenette but no pots, pans, ect. There was coffee but only a water boiler the make it with so we had to basically throw the filter into the boiler. For the price I would stay there again. ##### Patrick Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jeff May 30, 2023 Disliked: Staff & service There was four of us in our room only had two towels, had no idea who to call to get more There’s no one around to talk to ##### Jeff Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Roxanne Aug 4, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Bad smell bad service The beds and blankets smelt like cat urine. No one epuld answer to change rooms. ##### Roxanne Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### William Nov 24, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities There was no key in the lock box and once contact was made with a rep, he was told to go to the hardware store to have one made. Reservation was cancelled at that moment. Lights were missing bulbs, bed covers were inadequate for the cold weather and room temp, carpet needed replacing years ago. Our group will NEVER come back and make certain everyone knows this place is a “DUMP”. ##### William Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Angela May 30, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Rode trip with a group We had a group trip for a long weekend. We were told via text/email a code to enter to the locked box with our key. No key but the door was unlocked with the key inside-okay. The room appeared to be updated. All rooms smelled of smoke. The kitchenette sink leaked. The comforter was just thrown on the beds, unlike other's rooms where the bedding was nicely tucked. The bathroom had a partial roll of toilet paper. It was hard to get in touch with the lodge as not on site. The bed was a full size but it was comfortable. ##### Angela Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul Jun 20, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great hotel, excellent location Nice, clean hotel. Location is excellent for hiking in the Shawnee National Forest area in Illinois. ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Valerie Jun 12, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I liked the cleanliness, quietness, and simpleness with getting key and returning key. Didn’t like the thin washcloths or the fact that there were no tissues. Overall a great experience. ##### Valerie Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### dean Jun 11, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### We’ll kept sleeping spot A nice well kept establishment that satisfies the need for a clean sleeping spot. The town is a beautiful, historic river town with some low cost, good food options. I highly recommend the Tammy’s Grill and Chill Saturday breakfast buffet for $9.99. ##### dean Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveler May 5, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Not as nice as the pictures... There were multiple issues with our stay. Had to call twice in order to receive the keypad code to even get into the room. There was dirt in one of the beds, the towel bar in the bathroom was not secured to the wall, and the shower head and handles were not flush with the wall. All in all, I would not stay here again. ##### Verified traveler Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rebecca Jan 16, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Quiet clean and perfect for going to Shawnee National Forest will stay again ##### Rebecca Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Emily Sep 9, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Decent place to stay Decent, quiet place to stay while exploring Shawnee National Forest. Older place with outdated bed and bedding, but small oven and stovetop to cook. Wifi available, but not as strong near the back of the property where we were located. ##### Emily Stayed 1 night in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveler Jun 23, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is the third time I've stayed here. I was amazed at how clean and welcoming it was. After a couple not so great experiences I believe they have hired a great manager to run the motel this time. I will definitely be back! ##### Verified traveler Stayed 1 night in Jun 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Diane Jun 4, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Basic but clean and comfortable The only complaint would be that some of our neighbors were a little loud early in the morning. Check in and out were through a key lockbox--no contact with property manager. ##### Diane Stayed 1 night in May 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Katelyn Mar 22, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quiet Contactless entry, clean, quiet place to stay. ##### Katelyn Stayed 1 night in Mar 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveler Feb 12, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A sweet lodge We where the only guests there. The room was very clean. Bathroom is pretty small and has a bath. Overall a very nice place to stay. I would stay again. Also reasonably priced. ##### Verified traveler Stayed 1 night in Feb 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### caleb Jan 9, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### No sham Everything was nice. I just wish there was shampoo in the shower. ##### caleb Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### NicoleD Nov 28, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was pretty much a motel, but perfect. We found it last minute and thought it was cheap and thought why not? Since it was Thanksgiving i called ahead to give them a 2 hour heads up so they didnt feel so rushed with my last min booking. The lady was so nice and told me due to covid everything was set up by text. She texted me the room number qnd a code for a black.box where our key would be stored. There was no contact other than when we got there they checked on us. The place was cute, clean. The beds arent the best but for the place and price I cant complain. I highly recommend this place. Freindly, clean and not far from Shawnee. ##### NicoleD Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Meschelle Nov 17, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness #### Just ok Room we were given upon arrival still had dirty towels and beds. Given another room and were told 10 minute wait...we checked in an hour later..The room was ok...glad we brought our own space heater..the heater unit sounded like a jet..we were told we were the only guests..hoped for quiet...room right next to us was occupied by loud guests..manager suggested I go knock on their door to ask them to be quiet! The room itself was not bad...was clean.. ##### Meschelle Stayed 1 night in Nov 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### John Nov 8, 2020 #### Old motel not worth the money or stay The room wasn't ready when I arrived at 3:30 pm. After the funeral, the next day, about 3 pm, came back to the room and the linen was stripped off the bed and the bed not made. I wanted to rest a bit but decided to head back to Oklahoma. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2020 ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Super 8 by Wyndham Metropolis](https://www.expedia.com/Metropolis-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-Metropolis.h196091.Hotel-Information) - [Quality Inn & Suites Metropolis I-24](https://www.expedia.com/Metropolis-Hotels-Quality-Inn-Suites-Metropolis-I-24.h17025.Hotel-Information) - [Baymont by Wyndham Metropolis](https://www.expedia.com/Metropolis-Hotels-Baymont-By-Wyndham-Metropolis.h123902.Hotel-Information) - [Harrah's Metropolis Hotel & Casino - A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.com/Metropolis-Hotels-Harrahs-Metropolis-Hotel-Casino.h1598928.Hotel-Information) - [Holiday Inn Express Metropolis by IHG](https://www.expedia.com/Metropolis-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Metropolis.h211819.Hotel-Information) - [Motel 6 Metropolis, IL](https://www.expedia.com/Metropolis-Hotels-Motel-6-Metropolis.h98915.Hotel-Information) - [Super 8 by Wyndham Harrisburg](https://www.expedia.com/Harrisburg-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-Harrisburg.h856028.Hotel-Information) - [Economy Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.com/Harrisburg-Hotels-Economy-Inn.h112505729.Hotel-Information) - [Quality Inn](https://www.expedia.com/Harrisburg-Hotels-Quality-Inn.h557984.Hotel-Information) - [Americas Best Value Inn Marion, IL](https://www.expedia.com/Carbondale-Hotels-Americas-Best-Value-Inn-Marion.h68104.Hotel-Information) - [Best Western Marion Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Carbondale-Hotels-Best-Western-Marion-Hotel.h97975.Hotel-Information) - [Econo Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Carbondale-Hotels-Econo-Lodge.h1050830.Hotel-Information) - [Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Marion, IL](https://www.expedia.com/Carbondale-Hotels-Country-Inn-Suites-By-Radisson.h2457332.Hotel-Information) - [Baymont by Wyndham Marion](https://www.expedia.com/Carbondale-Hotels-Baymont-By-Wyndham-Marion.h19275.Hotel-Information) - [Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Marion Northeast by IHG](https://www.expedia.com/Carbondale-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hotel-Suites-Marion-Northeast.h4970883.Hotel-Information) - [Unity Lodge Suite 11](https://www.expedia.com/Metropolis-Hotels-Unity-Lodge-Suite-11.h67398432.Hotel-Information) - [Unity Lodge Suite 10](https://www.expedia.com/Metropolis-Hotels-Unity-Lodge-Suite-10.h67398411.Hotel-Information) - [Riverview Mansion Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Metropolis-Hotels-Riverview-Mansion-Hotel.h19990952.Hotel-Information) - [Unity Lodge Suite 2](https://www.expedia.com/Metropolis-Hotels-Unity-Lodge-Suite-2.h67376929.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel 7 Vienna](https://www.expedia.com/Metropolis-Hotels-Hotel-7-Vienna.h8296125.Hotel-Information) - [Flights to Pope County](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Pope-County.d553248635976432837.Flight-Destinations) - [Pope County Vacations](https://www.expedia.com/Pope-County.d553248635976432837.Destination-Travel-Guides) - [Car rentals near Pope County](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Pope-County.d553248635976432837.Car-Rental-Destinations) - [Pope County Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Pope-County.d553248635976432837.Vacation-Rental-Destinations)
