Room was not clean. Live and dead bugs strewn about. Smelled like cigarettes. Bathroom was moldy and even worse smoke smell. Double charged at check in. Bed box spring was off the frame and wedged. Unable to get back on the frame without dissembling the frame itself. “Bed spread”!using those words lightly, had multiple burn holes in it. Absolutely garbage. Ran by an Indian man who doesn’t give a single F.

The room was dirty and terrible. no towels in the room, I went to the front desk & asked for towels for 2 people. I was told that he had no towels. He said he would bring me 1 towel. I said there were two guests, he said he would bring me 1 towel. it was brought to the room, it was still slightly damp. I was tired as it was after 10 when I checked in and decided to make the best of it. I showered and went to bed, only to wake up itching so bad that my wrist bled and with welts on the side of my face and neck. At this point (a little after midnight) i decided that I could not stay there no matter how tired I was. I went to the front desk to tell the man about it. He asked if I was checking out and i said yes (my original stay was for two days.) I had stayed about 2 and a half hours. I was told since I had slept in the room that I would not get a refund for that night. I asked about the next night and he said I wouldn't be charged for Sunday. I asked for a receipt to confirm this and he refused. asked to speak to the manager and he said he was the manager, I then asked to speak to the owner and I was told that his name was G, just the letter I tried calling back over the next several days to address the issues and was always put off or ignored. I checked my account and was charged for both days. I contacted Sonesta and they didn't read my complaint, they said my report was investigated and no bedbugs were found, I never said bedbugs only bad rooms and bad customer service.

I was traveling alone with the attendance of the Walnut Valley Festival, being my center of attention.
For under $100 a day it was OK.
There was plenty of hot water, day or night, but no linen service
The motel really shouldn't advertise a complimentary breakfast., There wee child sized Twinkies and some similarly sized pastry, and coffee w/o condiments.
The room 's A.C./ heater worked well, given that a few of the days I was there the temps were over 100 degrees F and the mgmt never minded me running the AC day and night..
It was good enough for me, no roaches, good ac close to where I needed to be, quiet and easy parking
Not bad for under $100
i never did get WIFI, although the manager did appear to be working on it, periodically. .

Sweetest managers and staff! They are extremely helpful. They helped us with any little problem or need - extra towels, plumbing issues, and sorting out the microwave.

This is an older property. It is adequate for stays. It is a secure area and there are plenty of fast food options around. Beds are comfortable and the rooms are clean. AC unit functions as expected.

Some of the wall outlets need repair but we did find working ones.

We did not eat breakfast here so we can't tell you what was served. We would stay here again if the need arises.

Their advertised pool, has not been touched in a decade at least. Now it’s nothing more than a green water, overgrown frog sanctuary. We booked a double bed and were given a single which doesn’t work because 1 we paid for the more expensive room, and 2 there were 3 of us and we needed BOTH beds.

I made the mistake not to check under the mattress before we decided to stay for two nights. My husband started itching upon the second night of our stay. He started to get welts. We decided to lift up the mattress a little bit on the side and it had brown fecal spots. That is a sure sign of bed bugs. We did not see any live ones crawling around, but saw a dead one.

Not a Great Visit

We have been staying at this hotel every weekend for the past several weeks due to an illness in the family. It seems to be getting worse and worse. The first room we were given had a broken A/C unit. So they moved us. This room had no plastic cups and several light bulbs were burned out. We always book for two nights...Friday and Saturday. Saturday night we came back from the family home...only to find our card did not open the door! They had programmed it for just one night. I might overlook this, but this is the second time it has happened! The staff never smiles or apologizes. Just punches in a few numbers and hands you another card. Perhaps because he doesn't speak English.
While the hotel is reasonable and has been clean, don't expect the greatest customer service. You won't get it.

Found two roaches on the bed and another crawling on the floor. The rooms were unbearably hot most of the night.We had been confirmed for an upstairs set up and for a folding bed both of which were not available. Payment was supposed to be charged when we got there... one to my sister's card and another to mine but was precharged and so were irreversible. On the plus side... they did give us another free room to make up for the missing folding bed.
