I’ve stated here twice while visiting Kirksville. The staff has always been very friendly and helpful, and the rooms very clean and cozy. This hotel caters to a lot of construction workers in town for the week, which is great! But the room doors aren’t well sealed or soundproof, so you’re going to hear those workers heading out for the day at 5am. My second stay was over the weekend so no workers tromping down the hallway early in the morning. However, we tried to use the pool in the evening and it was pretty dirty in there with discarded towels everywhere and no clean ones available. Included breakfast is really good, lots of hot options and healthy choices. Will definitely stay here again!

Staff originally was very helpful. But I woke up with bugs on the ceiling. Air wasnt working correctly in the room. And when I needed a receipt with itemized logs, the refused since I went through Expedia. Where as other hotels I've stayed at have never had that issue. Would not recommend staying here.
