Very much appreciated the early checkin because we got to the area much sooner than anticipated. Liked the kitchenette. Basic room with the bonus of a comfortable recliner. Was a good value for the money.

The rooms didn’t look how they were advertised. The kitchen area was very old, not updated as shown in the photos, stove was very dirty, fridge had left over things from previous guests, microwave could’ve been cleaner. It definitely was not as clean as we hoped. The reason we chose this hotel was because of the kitchen in the room and we stayed 3 nights and only used the fridge to store stuff because we felt everything else was unsanitary to use None of the drawers closed, you would push them in but they would pop back out. What really was bad was the shower head. It was filthy with rust and almost looked like mold to me. Also the shampoo and conditioner bottles in the shower had little mold on the pumps.. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Standard was the manager, she was friendly and very helpful and accommodating. Everyone I came in contact with was friendly and helpful.
The restaurants were within walking distance or short drive. The movie theater was across the street. Everything you needed was close. It was a very nice stay.

Nice use of space in the unit and fairly clean except for the kitchenette; stovetop was not clean. (We didn’t use the kitchenette, except to put a few items in the refrigerator/freezer.)
We didn’t notice the sign about making ice and there is no ice machine on the property. Probably a good idea to tell guests that at the front desk.
Fine for a night on our way to Wisconsin.

Upon entry into the building, it smelled amazing! That is always a plus in my book. When we got to the desk, Shanda was amazing helping us get our rooms situated. She was so polite and easy to talk to. We get to our room and it was amazing as well. A full fridge. A stove top as well as alot of cabinet space. The beds were amazingly comfortable. It felt like I was in a cloud the 3 nights we were there. We will definitely stay at this hotel again.

I stayed at this hotel for its proximity to Prairie Meadows racetrack. The staff in the hotel were extremely friendly & helpful, there are plenty of restaurants nearby. The room was spotless and the bed was very very comfortable. I was here for 3 days & and thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

The young petite lady at 3am on Friday, July 10th was very helpful and sweet. It was 3am - how was she awake and nice? I couldn’t find anyone when I needed to touch base to additional times (upon checking out we did speak with a nice blond woman 9am on 7/13). The bed frame was missing the protector on the metal of the bed and I wrecked my shin twice on it. Then our fire alarm went off at 230am 7/13 - no other rooms. Just us. 3 minutes blaring. Room 301 was woken up by me not knowing what to do - nice guy BTW. Would I stay there and feel safe - yes. Shower was great. Sheets clean. Just mad at the dang bed frame and alarm.

While the place isn't fancy, it did have what we needed. The front desk people answered questions and were very friendly. One even got me a cup of ice. There isnt an ice machine, but the fridge in the room makes it(if you remember to turn it on). Short walk to the casino and Adventureland. Plenty of eating choices around it too. Parking lot had plenty of room too!

My place is designed to be an extended stay hotel but for an overnight they are excellent for the price. I originally thought that they had a free breakfast so that was a bit disappointing though they have breakfast items for purchase. If staying for an extended stay I would be concerned that, though they have places in each room for cooking, the rooms have no utensils, plates or glasses.

When we arrived for a late check-in the lobby smelled awful. The front desk clerk was friendly, and that's the only positive thing. Our room was not very clean. The stove and counter were filthy and dirty. There were no towels in our bathroom, which we
had to get from the front desk . The toilet barely flushed. Overall, the price was cheap, but I guess you get what you pay for. I will never stay here again.

They had told me when i booked the rooms they would get us into an adjoining room or at least on same floor but when we got there all they had was 2 rooms on first floor where there had been a leak and fans where strung through the hallway. Both rooms were dirty, the one room bathroom sink didnt work, toilet seat was only attached on one side. We had repeatedly had to ask for housekeeping that we never got and my daughter had to empty her own trash from their room because housekeeping never came. We had to keep asking for towels they werent refilled and the refrigerator in one room wasnt working for 2 days we had to flip the breaker to get it on. Will never stay there again!

I’d rather stay here than at those high $$$ hotels. At least we had a clean, comfortable room with a small kitchenette and a normal house refrigerator. They didn’t put bottles of water on the counter and then a not saying if we drank it, we would be charge $6+ per bottle…I’ve seen that in the very expensive hotels. And, the internet was free…not like the either pay or pay to upgrade and the $$$ places.
Over all, I will definitely look for a MyPlace as often as possible for my stays, even if it’s only 1 night.

The gal that check us un was hugh on some type of upper/speed. Our room was pretty clean, but the floors could have been done better. The tile needed swept. I'm guessing from whatever the vacuum missed. I will say, I've never seen a hotel offer a kitchen but not have a single item stocked in it (no silverware, dish, pan anything).
