Pros:

Simple and clean and right off the road, but still pretty quiet all night especially with the curtains closed. It was lovely for a roadside motel. The big refrigerator and the big chair were good surprises!

Clean, cozy and comfortable.
Pros:

This motel is clean, cozy and very comfortable. The decor in some of the rooms is retro and super cute. Beds are very comfortable.

Cons:

The only think I would change is to have a coffee maker in the room. Although they do provide instant coffee and a microwave.

Just right for a Minnesota farm boy visiting his home town.
Pros:

It's a real basic place, conveniently located on the main highways intersecting in the middle of beautiful farm land. Clean and comfortable. The owner/hostess is so friendly, the epitome of Minnesota nice!

Cons:

Kind of a weird check-in procedure. The owners are not on site, so you have to call them, but they respond immediately!
