Wedding stay
Cleaniless was great. Very dated and pillows need to be replaced as sleeping was not super comfortable. Curtain needs to be fixed as well since looks out to the parking lot and hard time closing it all the way. No breakfast but not an issue for us.

This motel was perfect for what we wanted. A clean place to sleep for a night. VERY clean and VERY quiet even though it was completely booked. I would definitely reccomend it for someone who just wants the basics. Again, VERY clean.

No shampoo or conditioner in room. MAnager barely spoke. Ice machine only available during short lobby hours. In the morning there was an unimaginable stench outside. Not farm related.

Very nice clean motel for a very reasonable price. Loved that it had 3 beds as we travel with 2 kids (1boy, 1 girl) and it gets expensive to have enough beds for us all. My only complaint was that it had snows and no one shoveled at all. We had to walk through ankle deep snow to get from our vehicle to our room. Otherwise a great room for a very reasonable price.

Old-time motel in Cresco
Bedding was clean, but non-slip strips in bathtub were grimy. Mold growing in toilet. The vanity was new and clean. Soap provided, but no shampoo or lotion. No hair dryer in room. Coffe only available in office, not in rooms. The spacious room had microwave, fridge, and flat-screen TV, but no radio. Several USB ports for charging, a nice feature. Deadbolt and peephole on door, but no security chain. But Cresco is likely a pretty safe place.

New bedding needed
Although I was pleasantly surprised by the fresh smelling room (no stale cigarette smell perfume cover up), the fact is that this is an old building and shows it. The bedding is old and thin and the carpets show wear.
