Rooms very clean comfortably, i dont know way around, but pewtty sure i wasnt on out skirts and felt safe, parking lot tight for truck and trailer but off the street and i could see it, not bad prices for room
The room was clean and nicely maintained. Although I was a bit cut after 12 hours on the road, the lady was very nice. It was a quiet place and I slept well.
This is a great Motel. I have a King no Smoking room. Very clean. Attention to detail is top tier. Weekly rate less than $500.00 includes taxes. Best bargain in Joplin. Walking distance to many top line restaurants and shopping malls and strip malls.
The staff was amazing, and so close to Freeman hospital. Will definitely go back there. My friend Mary and I had a nice quiet place to sleep. Once again awesome hotel and will go back.
The owners have really put their work into cleaning the place up. Very quiet and clean. Affordable, and they will rent to locals.With a 25$ refundable deposit. Pets welcome with pet fee
Best price around !! Trust me, it took hours to find a hotel with smoking rooms available and then I found this place. 40 dollars cheaper than the others that only have smoking areas. Clean rooms ,hot water and HD TV. Plus a microwave in the room as well !
