So this is a Mom and Pop Hotel, but since Route 66 in Kansas is only a short drive, we really don't know how long it has existed. It is clean and comfy, but it is a young couple with a young family running the place, which may be a little much to handle. They were trying to host a small breakfast bar from 6 to 9, but at 6:45 no one had set it up so we went across the street and grabbed coffee at McDonald's and went on our way. There is good news, though, we tend to look for truckers staying at a place to know what is safe and clean and plenty of truckers stayed there.

Loved the room with 3 beds (and a bonus pullout in the couch we hadn't expected!) - were just there for a quick stopover on a road trip, but it was great for our needs

Room was a but rougher than the photo appeared. We had dogs with us, so was giving a smoker/pet friendly room. Clean, but definitely had a smokers smell. Very quiet area.

Baxter inn was a good “just for the night” hotel idk if i would stay here for longer. It had a strange smell. Almost like this place has been kept in a bottle type of smell. The sheets did have some stains on them. The shower was nice! I enjoyed the shower. Parking was easy and it was easy to find. The staff was very friendly

The tv only had one channel. No hand soap or shampoo in the bathroom. It said there would be a hairdryer and there wasn’t. The was a pair of filthy house shoes left by the bed.
