We stayed at the hotel in January. There is a banquet hall and bar in the lower level where we were guests for a 50th B-Day party many people were staying at the hotel so we decided to stay instead or driving back to Chicago. The room was comfortable and there is a small breakfast in the morning. Staff is... More

We stayed here during the Oskosh Airventure and were very happy with the accommodations. Room was very clean, beds were comfortable, and our requests for extra soap and towels was responded to immediately. We were looking for a good, basic hotel at an affordable price. This one filled all our needs. Would stay there again.

We stay at this hotel during EAA AirVenture every year. Since we're at that event most of the day, we basically just need a place to clean up and sleep. This fits the bill. Honestly, pretty much everything needs to be replaced. I'm talking mattresses, furniture, carpet, TV, etc.. The lobby and hallways could be brightened up a bit as... More

Where do I begin? The sheets and blankets were stained and yellow. They also had cigarette burn holes in them. I don't think they have replaced for 20 years. The mattress was sunk in the middle and had to be at least 15 years old. The comforters were old and disgusting. The room smelled like a really old tavern or... More

The Welcome Inn is just ok. Our first impression was of ants all over the parking lot. The lobby featured a business center PC and a TV on the front desk counter featuring one of the cable movie channels. There was no elevator, so if you have an upstairs room you have to haul your own luggage upstairs. The only... More

My associates and I stayed at this hotel 4 nights. We enjoyed lounge in the lower level and location of the hotel was very convenient. Rooms were comfortable with all the features needed. We will definitely use this hotel again!

Interesting town with lots of bars and a few good eateries. I think the Best Western no longer applies, the owner told me he'd rather put the money in upgrades than franchise fees Right on, Serbo! Room was real basic, clean no problems and reasonable.

I had read reviews saying it needed improvements but had no other choice as even they were completely booked on-line, but I called. I was in for a surprise. The owner happen to check me in and I found out they had actually made major improvements ($$$) to the rooms. I could tell the bathroom particularly had been re-tiled with... More
