Called them. Told no rooms. Later checked on Hotels.com app, said there were rooms. Booked 3 queen bed rooms. When we arrived, the property was a disaster. Parking lot full of construction debris, the front of all rooms was dirty and garbage everywhere with very unsavory people hanging around.
Went to front desk to check in, door locked with a sign to call a number (no staff on premises). Called the number and the same woman answered as before and told me she was sorry but they didn't actually have the rooms available that we booked.
I asked about the refund and she said her supervisor would have to that and he would call me back. We left and made other arrangements. When the supervisor called back, he did not want to give me a refund. He said he \"moved people around\" and now had the rooms. I don't know how, as the lot was full with vehicles and the woman already told me 2x that day they didn't have the rooms. It all sounded very suspicious and unprofessional. We did not go back. He also told me that under NO conditions was there going to be a refund. This is significant because I contested the charges today with Hotels.com, this owner told them I said I was coming back and that if I had told him I wasn't, he would have given us a refund, which are both LIES.
Owner is scammy and scummy. The other hotel we ended up at said they are aware of this property and of it's bad rep.
Hotels.com failed to recoup my money, thankfully my credit card company took care of it.

We had several issues....
No WIFI at check-in, system failure with repair date 5 days in the future. Not so bad for just Wifi, but it took down the TV system as well.
After 1st shower, faucet could not shut the water off..... Solution was to turn water service off to shower. Other room was offered for showering, no rooms available to move to.
Motel is currently under renovation, non of the units completed yet. Things will hopefully improve with the completion of that project.
Our bed was very comfortable, and the furnishings were mostly clean and presentable.
Our Manager was very personable and did her best to be helpful.

It was so sad that the Inn was under construction. They shouldn’t have even rented out any of it until the renovations were complete.

Excellent WiFi connectivity. Clean room pleasantly furnished. Remodeling is apparently in progress, with much junk left out front of disused rooms, which detracts from the overall ambiance, but the room itself was nice.

I gave the overall 4-star rating because the manager (owner?) was so helpful and eager to make my stay comfortable. Having said that, the place is undergoing remodeling so the current (unremodeled) rooms are dated and a bit rundown, but they have everything you need if you're not planning on spending all day in the room; a comfortable bed, a functioning bathroom, streaming TV, and even a little couch and desk. I look forward to staying here again when the renovations are complete.

Would not recommend. Do not book this hotel unless you are fond of sleeping in a construction site. Their customer service is severely lacking as well. If I could give negative stars I would.

This was the worst room I’ve ever stayed in. The heater was broken so they had a space heater in the room and that had duct tape holding the faceplate on. And i barely worked. The bed was completely collapsed on one side. Paint was peeling. Mold on the windows and around the tub. Nobody on property to assist and they don’t answer their phones. Left and booked another hotel and owner is refusing refund. Found blood droplets on washcloth in bathroom. Stay away. This place is unsafe. Reported to OSHA, Attorney General and disputing charges with my credit card company.

Liked: Gentleman who checked us in was friendly, familiar with the area and made good suggestions on sites to see. The hotel was located conveniently on the main thoroughfare through town. The bed proper was comfortable. The place needs maintenance. The shower/tub was stained and dirty as was the bath mat. The refrigerator and bathroom fans were noisy/hummed. It provided a place to stay for 1 night at a low rate and was the last room available in town for the Octoberfest we attended. Better than no lodging.

Never again!! When we first arrived - the first room they gave us the door wouldn't stay shut as if it had been kicked in and the toilet was not attached to the ground it moved!!! They were great and gave us a different room right away no problem. The rooms are mishmashed items put together, the bedding did not appear clean, we slept on top of the covers. There were so many strange noises all night and when we woke up in the morning we couldnt breathe and our eyes were puffy and running - there must be mold behind the walls that look terrible.

Unbelievable

No one in the office, it was 7pm I had to call a phone number taped to the door. Person directed us to our room which she said was unlocked and the key was on a chest. The lock on the outside door was a push button lock like on a bathroom door in a home. The TV was missing one remote which required two. I called the person again and she said they would send someone over. When a fellow came we thanked him and he didn’t work for Colonial he stayed there he just wanted to help. We thanked him and he left us. No one ever came. We never met the people from Colonial. There was a pair of dirty socks in the corner by the entrance. We left at 7:00am never to return. We had paid for two nights

Do not stay here the place has roaches and it's extremely dirty I don't know when they cleaned it last my bed sheets seem like they were from the 1960s still had rips and tears in them the air conditioner worked was about the only positive that I can say about this place and they charged me an extra $21 which I'm assuming they thought I stole maybe a towel or two which I didn't cuz I don't need to still tell us from a janky ass Plus they're doing construction and I'm not blaming the crew but if you're going to have some people staying at your hotel don't start at 6:30 7a.m.

Half the building is burnt down. That is fine, however it was the fact we couldn’t even get checked in, or find any staff to check us in. Door was locked and 2 numbers given to call that no one answers.

Expedia tried to call them and the line is disconnected unreachable.

There was a county fair behind the building happening and it’s off the busy road.

It was a cheap room that we couldn’t use .
We had to try to find another hotel on the fly and that was hard and spends.

Part of the hotel appears to have been in a fire. There was no staff on site as the office seems to have been affected by the fire. I had to call a number taped to the door to check-in. I was instructed to proceed to my room where a key would be by the TV. The door lock was not completely secure. I used the desk chair to prop against the knob on the inside. I did not feel safe. The rooms were not cleaned to an average standard.

If this was not the worst hotel experience of my life, it was close. I have never seen any hotel more run-down or filthy in my life. We ended up forfeiting the money we paid for two rooms because we had to pay in advance, and driving home 100 miles late at night after a funeral. This is simply no way to run a hotel. The carpets were filthy and worn, and everything was so perfumed so that you could not distinguish the stench. We called trying to check out and had a bizarre phone conversation with a service rep. There is no redeeming quality to this hotel. You will be better off driving through the night or sleeping in your car by the railroad tracks.

The room upon arrival was not the room I was expecting although it was clean it was a shoebox and overheated. Actually I could see it was the only room available but
Monday I switched to a better room with a real queen bed and a tub. The inn is old and so is the furniture. It’s no frills but the charm is its very quiet clean and I could get to the property’s easily. I actually got a extended stay for another day and hopefully got all of my work done and glad I did because my ride had problems and will be transporting myself in the AM.

It has gotten quite expensive to stay in New Ulm, and we need to stay often for family events. This is your most reasonable stay in town. It's an older facility where the rooms/furniture have been updated. Nothing fancy, but we slept well, it was clean, and under $100. We'll be staying here again.
