This place is like a retreat!! Fantastic variety of breakfast items to enjoy, the outdoor pool is what our granddaughters loved, our rooms were clean, (our particular room could have used a luggage rack and second chair), and we enjoyed time at the tables and chairs outside our room!! Highly recommend!!

We had a wonderful stay for 2 nights. The breakfast was the best we have had while on our 2+ week trip. Fresh cinnamon rolls, eggs, sausage and biscuits and gravy. Every one went out of their way to be helpful and pleasant. Great stay!

Staff was incredible. We enjoyed the breakfast. They have hot items and a lot to choose from. There was some road noise as we were on the side by the road. This might be an issue if you are a light sleeper.

While this is an older motor lodge, they have updated the rooms including better bathrooms and beds. Everything was very clean. TV was strictly streaming which created a few issues. Grounds were a little rough but that didn't really impact anything. Staff was friendly, and available. Breakfast was just ok but better than some I've seen. I would recommend staying here if you're needing a stop in Russell.

Room was dirty upon arrival, as there was blood on the mattress. Had them change our room. Furniture was old and falling apart. Breakfast was not as described which was disappointing.
