We toured this small town of 1600 people. Lot of history here. It is an old facility but very clean. Ben kinda runs things around here and is a hard working great guy. Miss Rodger’s was very sweet and pleasant.

The room was very clean and the desk clerk friendly. It was a basic room with no frills. It was a good value.

Clean, quiet and super convenient for budget minded road trippers. This is one of those classic and hard to find roadside motels where you park right outside your door. Charming small town has good local dining options, too. Bed was comfy and bath was in excellent condition. Roku TV wasn't working in my room but not an issue for me.

I knew that the place would be minimal amenities but i chose because of cost + cleanliness. And it came through on both.

Very clean and conveniently arranged rooms; easy access to nearby restaurants and shopping. Doors on rooms have paint peeling and flaking, needs attention. Friendly, helpful staff. No instructions in rooms for use of Roku TV. Everything seemed to be on subscription. Budget friendly and good value.

On the downward trend, bed was from the 90's near as I could tell, very little water flow in the sink, bathroom was very well done, only 2 lights in the room and the fixtures were obsolete.

Very bare-bones experience. So what— I was sleeping almost the whole time. The hailstorm damage from some time ago makes the room doors look like heck, but don’t let that deter you. They are going to address the finish on the doors, as well as do a general renovation, soon. This was a very fine experience. I like that my car was parked directly in front of my room, à la nineteen sixties. The property is located in a beehive of truck stops, gas stations, and fast food places. The town, to the north, is rather small. Owner and staff are very friendly. Owner is a local farmer, or farmer’s wife. There was a freezer where I re-froze my packets of artificial ice. Great place to stop and sleep after hours of driving through Nebraska and Iowa.

We enjoyed our stay at the Stuart Motor Lodge. The staff were efficient and friendly. The room was spacious and comfortable and in very good condition. We had a very quiet evening and a great night’s sleep for a reasonable price. We would definitely stay again.

We really love this place, have stayed there at least five times and always try to make it part of our itinerary. The staff are great! The rooms are clean! They are pet friendly! There is a yummy pub in downtown proper (Ruby’s) about a mile from the motel. Stay here. ♥️♥️♥️
