“Nothing Fancy, But Not Bad for the Money!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2010

This is my third cross-country trip this year, so we have stayed at a lot of hotels this year. This was probably the cheapest rate yet! It was only 65 + tax for 2 adults and a child. It wasn't anything fancy, but the room was decent size, and very clean. The night and then morning staff (weekend) are very young, and seem a little inexperienced, but friendly.
My complaints are small: The pool was outside, and thus unuseable this time a year. They said we could use the outside hottub, but that seemed like a quick way to getting sick. The breakfast was okay. They have waffles, biscuits and gravy, prepacked cereal, cups of fruit and doughnuts. The cereal seemed hard and old. Sunday morning must be the second day on doughnuts because they were literally crumbling apart when my son tried to eat them.
The town is very small, and limited. This is one of only two hotels, but from what I could see of the other, this hotel was definitely the better of the two.
If I ever came back to Wamego (which is doubtful, because of nothing to do), I would stay at this hotel again. It went pretty smooth!

Thank You for the kind words. As you said, our community is relatively small. As such we do not have a bakery for fresh pastries and must rely on frozen ones. (Hopefully, this will change soon). Thus we try to offer a wide variety of other breakfast items for our guests, including the Bicuits and Gravy, Waffles and the Breakfast fruit cups which our guests seem to really like. Rest assured, that we will continue to seek ways to upgrade our breakfasts. Once again, Thank you for the kind words, and we look forward to seeing you again.

5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 October 2010

Our group of friends visited Wamego to attend a production at the Columbian Theatre. We found the Wamego Inn & Suites very clean and comfortable and we appreciated the friendly front desk staff.

“What a jewel!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2010

Stayed here on a monday night and they had free burgers out by the pool. I really enjoyed visiting and relaxing out by the pool. When my computer went dead and I forgot to pack my power cord, they had a computer and printer in the lobby that I used to e-mail and print my boarding pass. Staff was great and room was neat and clean with a fridge and microwave. Bed was great! (I was a little worried after reading one of the reviews here.) Lots of choices for breakfast with coffee in both the room and at the breakfast bar. I would highly recomend this hotel. A definate step above what I expected in a small town.

“Quirkly hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 September 2009

if you have to go to Wamego, this is pretty much the only game in town. The rooms are large and clean. The door to the bathroom is strangely labled "rest room" (what else would it be?) They also offer a microwave and refrigerator in your room which is extremely convenient because there is a supermarket across the street.

The hotel seems to be staffed exclusively by 19 year girls with varying levels of competence. You have to call and ask for an ironing board and iron (which they will forget to bring you) and you have to hope they remember to turn on the waffle maker.
For me, breakfast was disappointing. Your choices are limited to starch, sugar and lard.
No fruit, no protein. The biscuits and gravy was inedible. But then other folks seemed to like this just fine.

They don't have a real website, you have to call to make reservations and they don't send a confirmation letter. But all in all, this was a reasonable hotel.

“Read and Heed, Not worth the money”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 August 2009

Read and heed. Great lumpy beds that should have been replaced years ago, not working wireless internet except in the lobby, so much for privacy. pool was good for the eye but not built for swimming. This property is a former Super 8, so if you are a fan of Sper 8 expect a Super 8 hotel if you book here. Breakfast was good, better than expected. No truck parking, ther is a parking lot, but very small. Front desk is closed from 11 pm to 7 am and if you call the night desk person she will show up in her underwear (not petty). Was told Monday the owner grills hot dogs and burgers, small consolation. Our people won't be back here, going across the street next time, you should too. Thanks

Let me apologize for the condition of your bed. Since your stay, we have not only replaced the beds, but upgraded to Simmons "Signature II Mattresses and Enfurotech foundations. Our guests have really appreciated the upgrade. You are correct in that our parking lot was designed for cars and small trucks. If you have a "semi" please call ahead and we can save a place for you that is more convenient. Here's hoping that you will give us another try.
