Highliner Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great room newly remodeled."

Merrill Field Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We were a little apprehensive driving to this place as it appears to not be a fantastic part of town...but it's obvious this motel has been renovated in the last so-many years. It's not modern by any means, but the work done is high quality. No paint chipping anywhere or anything like that. Everything was super clean including the exterior building and parking lot area. It's very well maintained. You can tell it's loved. Bed was comfortable. Would stay there again."

Ingra House Hotel
