The little river in the motel is off the highway, quiet, nice. Grocery store right next door. Laura is wonderful. She has snacks, coffee, tea and a little oven to bake pizzas or toast your sandwiches. The rooms are so clean. The rooms come with toiletries , nice size towels, a thermostat, a microwave,and a fridge with a small freezer. The beds are so comfy. Plenty of light and shelves on each side of the bed for stuff or your phone, plenty of outlets and they don't use plastic keys they have actual keys. Great place to stay. I have reached out to my family and friends telling them about this wonderful little tucked in hide away.

There is nothing at all I didn't like about this place.

Bed was comfortable. Shower was hot with good water pressure. Coffee was good. Laura was awesome. She accommodated us with late check in. Had a good night's sleep and was ready to finish the next leg of our trip. Met Laura in the morning. She is just a very pleasant person. Great little mom and pop place. We will be back when we are traveling near here again.

Although the bed was comfortable. I just wish it was a bit bigger.

This is the absolute best customer service I’ve ever gotten at a hotel and I travel quite a bit. I messaged to ask about a late night check in and the owner called me to explain the process and set everything up for me! Everything was exactly as explained when I arrived. I was only there for a few hours but the room had everything I needed.

Such a sweet lady that runs the place, off the major highway. Enjoyed the stay. Comfortable, peaceful, called me the next morning to let me know I forgot my pillow offered to mail to me.

Everything was great. If starting near Leon stay here, better then the more expensive places a great place.

Quiet spot in the small town of Leon IA. Very friendly manager and the atmosphere of the place was calm and nice overall. It's an older traditional motel that remains in good condition. Quality better than the price would suggest; other travelers rated it well and I understand why after staying there.

Breakfast had little of interest.

It was nice having a cozy home to ourselves. Located close to a family reunion in Lamoni. Very convenient and well equipped little house. We’ll definitely keep it mind for next year.
