A work in progress. The room was clean and comfortable. It appears that updates are in process, with a new heater/AC unit, newer flooring that was bubbled near the kitchenette area, missing trim and a patched area where the old A/C unit used to be. The toilet seat was not attached properly and would slide if you shifted your weight at all. A decent place to stay if price and cleanliness are your primary concerns.

Did not match description advertised. Fridge froze all our foods, no stopper for bath tub making shower the only option, and we could not get any cold water from the tap. All things considered, we slept great!

Different and clean

Different place to stay in between Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. Room was clean and smelled good. Comfortable bed. Small place, owners have great customer service skills. We received a discount when eating at restaurant they own. Great food!

I was pleasantly surprised about the North Star Inn. Very clean!!! Don’t miss this little inn it is worth staying at. We didn’t want a commercial hotel and were looking for something clean and simple. This was perfect!! Thank you North Star Inn for a very comfortable cozy stay.

Great Service

Outside of property is a little rough. The inside has a nice kitchen with Fridge and microwave. Rooms are clean. Small TV. Its better than a motel 8. Strange check in. Either call a number or check in at the Moble Restaraunt. Its a truck stop with really good food. There is a couple of mini marts close. We stayed there 2 days. If you want a clean place to stay it's for you. If you want a 5 star hotel then look eleswhere so you won't be dissapointed. Great bargain for the money.
