The property is perfect when it comes to walking and cycling distance. Staff helped me get a room I could easily go in and out with my bike. Great people, great rooms, and the cheapest/cleanest hotel around
The staff was very accommodating, older hotel going through updates. Comfortable place to sleep for a night. Not the top of the line. But reasonable price.
I’ve been here the past 3 nights I’ve always felt safe, room was clean, beds were clean. The owners each night let me have outside access due to me traveling by bicycle. I have no complaints, the staff actually went out of their way to help me.
Just a ratty little place found cockroaches in the parking lot alot of damaged drywall. Beds were mediocre at best blackest felt like window curtains. Only thing good was the pool water was clean and their was hot water
The staff at Dexter Inn is very pleasant my room every evening when I come back was cleaned and made up the floor was taken care of fresh towels, and the smell was wonderful around the whole hotel. I definitely recommend if you’re traveling this is a place to stop.
I have stayed here many times and the owners know me by name. Really nice staff and they keep the place nice and clean. If you are ever in Dexter MO its a nice little place to stay.

Staff was very nice. Rooms were clean, but it's an older motel. Lots of places close to eat & shop.
The staff was extremely friendly when I went to check in! They were understanding and let me leave 30 minutes late without charging me! Overall a great experience
The sink had ants in it. The mirror was filthy. There was only 1 towel for 3 people. The girl at the desk gave us towels. Nothing looked clean. Only breakfast food was waffles, bread, small donuts and apples.

A nice stop on the way through
We need a stop on our cross country move and this location was a good place for a break. The room was comfortable and it was nice to see the freshly painted walls and a few updates in the bathroom. While an older establishment it was clean. Ricky at the front desk was very pleasant and willing to assist anyway possible.
I had heard bad things about this place. I found no bugs or drugs.. The staff was very nice. It is an old building but for and over night stay it was good. I would stay here again. It is by a local Walmart!
It's an old country hotel. It's a mix of smoking and non-smoking so outside the room you will smell smoke. Staff was friendly, room was clean. There was an "old" smell to the room, but not surprising for the age of the hotel.

Ants were on nightstand, desktop, and chair. Furniture was poor condition. Overall cleanliness was good.
We stayed at this hotel for the total solar eclipse. It was completely booked and staff still made us feel very welcome and took great care of us.
We had a small issue getting the AC to work in our room and within five minutes someone was in our room helping us.
Breakfast had variety as well as juice and coffee. When we asked for ice later in the day the lady at the front desk made sure we had plenty.
They allowed us to place our lawn chairs in the front grassy area for eclipse viewing.
This hotel is a bit older than some but is well taken care of.
We found the Dexter Inn to be inviting and wonderful for our family. We would gladly stay here again.
The towels were very thin and non-absorbent. The soap provided was the extremely small and thin bars. Showering with that was annoying. The refrigerator though worked surprisingly well. It actually got and stayed cold. The lighting in the bathroom area around the mirror wasn't adequate enough.
Hotel was very old and outdated. Everything stank of old cigarette smoke and age. The hallways were halfway painted. Black mold in the bathroom, lamp was broken and top light didn't work. Beds were about the size of a twin bed and a half. Looks almost like the downstairs is extended stay, apartment, type rooms, while the 2nd floor serves as the "hotel" part of the building. The only plus was the front desk woman was was friendly. I will never book this place again. I understand its a local hotel, but for $96/ night... never again. Pay the extra $20-$30 per night and get a chain hotel.
We arrived and checked in with no problem. Staff was friendly. The pool wasn’t operating and that really disappointed us as we were looking forward to it and one of the reasons why we stayed there. The other big issue was ants we had to change rooms due to ants literally covering the desktop in the room. We took a nap and woke up to the ants invading the room they were also on the walls, by the air conditioner and I found some in the bed. After we changed rooms our stay was good it was nice and quiet the hotel just needs some updating. However I don’t think we would stay here again.
