Top hotels in South Omaha
BridgePointe Inn & Suites
Decent breakfast, nice room, but the room was way too noisy. Room 101 is too close to the front desk and you can hear everything, including people walking down the halls, etc. There was plenty of parking and the hotel is located in a very convenient location.
