    I have stayed here several times while traveling. Breakfast 10$ but worth double. Great bar and appetizers

    This was a nice and clean hotel. I was on my way home from a trip in Colorado, I needed a nice clean and safe hotel for the night. I always read reviews before booking a hotel room, this hotel had the best reviews in Hays, KS, and this hotel was true to its good reviews. The staff were extremely friendly from booking, checking in, all the way to checking out. I booked a king room, it was very clean, quiet, comfortable, and safe. The location is very conveniently located to I-70, shopping, restaurants, and gas stations. The hotel had many things to offer, I was just here for an overnight stay. I am very thankful for this hotel, it’s not always easy to find a clean, quiet, and safe place to stay while traveling, but this hotel checked all those criteria’s and had exceptional staff members as well. If I am ever in the Hays, KS area, I would definitely stay at this hotel again.
