Clean room, comfortable bed, quiet, very clean shower with plenty of soap and shampoo, clean vanity WITH A HAIR DRYER AND KLEENEX front desk clerk was very pleasant and came quickly to our room and solved an issue with the TV. Very good full breakfast! Will stay here again in the future

This was a fantastic motel for visiting Mammoth caves. It is right off the highway in a little loop with several other hotels, restaurants, and gas stations. The location could not be better. The service was friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, recently updated, and well furnished. The beds in particular were very comfortable. The water pressure for showers was out of this world and it got hot almost instantly. I was there with three little kids and they loved the room too. Breakfast was above and beyond for a motel. Hot sausage, eggs, and biscuits, plus waffles, bagels and toast, yogurt, fruit, donuts, cereal, juice, and a nice coffee machine with decaf and brew strength options. They even had organic green tea! I was quite impressed both with the meal and the dining area. Overall this was a great stay at any price, but an exceptionally terrific stay for the price. I'd highly recommend this for visiting the area.

This is a little gem among the hotels in Cave City. Very welcoming staff. Clean room. Nice bed. I actually slept well last night. Super clean breakfast counter. Plenty to eat and drink. I have stayed here three times and will return again. And best of all, you can’t beat the price!

After searching for some time in the area we were in and not finding anything with good reviews we decided to drive an extra 45 min to come stay here. The front desk lady was so friendly and kind and eager to help us with a ground floor room. The lobby was clean and smelled nice. The room was clean and the beds were super clean and comfortable as well. (All white bedding always impressed me) The parking lot was lit up nice and it was an easy exit off of the interstate. We didn’t notice any rif raf or trash around the entire area. Noise was minimal also. Breakfast was ok, the food wasnt warm but we easily were able to heat it in the microwave. Would recommend this place to a friend. There were no usb adapters in the rooms. *note there was a notice inside that said no locals… I asked what that meant and they said they couldn’t rent to anyone with an address within 5o miles, just an fyi

Loved our stay! Stayed over 29th-30th. Comfortable and warm——woman at desk in the evening when we arrived at 10:30pm was very friendly and accommodating. Man the next morning wasn’t as helpful. One of our travel companions forgot their AirPods and when they called, the man said he searched the room and didn’t find it. We came back and the AirPods were right on the bed. Didn’t seem like he searched at all. Otherwise great! Perfect stop after a long day

Great price, clean rooms, hot water, check in was simple despite their system being down, very quiet. I loved that they had liquid hand soap by the sink, I prefer that over a bar of soap for washing my hands so I always bring my own and it was a nice surprise. Only *slight* inconvenience was that we didn’t see breakfast times anywhere so we weren’t sure the hours and missed it, but not a big deal.

Was looking for an affordable hotel to rest my head for the night on a quick road trip. Yosh, Gave me a great rate, and when I got to the room, I was very happy to see how spacious it was as well as clean. It is a super good location and it was very quiet. If I am traveling through the area again, I need to grab a quick night sleep. I will definitely stay there again..
