Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
I was very happy with the cleanliness of the room! I smelled fresh fragrance of a hint of bleach and shiny tiles on the floor indicating a clean floor. The air conditioning was very good. My room had 4 pillows on each bed which I use to prop my head for relaxation & a little TV watching. The room was especially safe for my handicapped husband as I had requested. The towels were adequately stocked for our 3day & 2 night stay. We love the fact of having a restaurant at the motel for easy meals. Breakfast in the morning & Great Coffee keeps us coming back. We will always stay here when we take time to visit family. Familiar faces at the Crossroads in Fort Dodge make this a special place to stay. Thank you for a clean room & stocked supplies in the room.

No complaints

Good stay, no complaints. I think the building could use some curb appeal. A hot tub would be nice. Pool was nice, just shallow. Great for kids I’d say. Room was nice, good value I’d say.

I reserved a cabin through Expedia. This is the second time I have visited the property and was told the roof had caved in on some of the cabins and it was under construction. When I arrived, the cabins were not under construction. But, construction workers were staying there. I felt lied to. We won't go back.
