Excellent

Very clean property. When I first pulled in, I could tell it was more suited for an easy exit for truckers. It is very well kept and lit. The place was very clean. There were many many families staying there as well. I felt super safe. Right next-door was a large convenience store and a couple of Dining options.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The room reeked of smoke smell. No other rooms available so we had to cancel and drive another 30 minutes out of our way to find another room
Hotel at a truck stop that wasn't clear in the description. Room had a strange odor when entering the first time. Fairly quiet considering its location.
I did not stay this night and still got charged. Hopefully my travel insurance pans out.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Pool bottom was slippery gross looks of algae..not taken care of. I usually always stay here when in albert lea... they need to clean the pool..and for a heated pool its freezing..
The pool was disgusting, just dirty everywhere, electric outlets are dirty, no carpet in the room, stains on walls, dirty linens. I will not stay here again. Gross.
