Price and location
Shannon, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It’s character…. Remodeled
Thomas, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Falsely advertised

Hotel is nothing like shown. There is no pool or playground. They rooms are no long wizard of oz themed. You have to check in at a hotel across the road.

Andrea, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We are very pleased with Simmer Motel. It is a very good choice for a low budget motel. I look forward to when the remodel is done. The staff was super! We will stay here again!
Thomas, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was nice, comfortable and clean. The process of receiving the room number and code to enter the room was really great.
Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was easy to access and close to everything. I would just say it needed some curtains (because the lights at night were bright) and a coffee maker. Other than that it was a very enjoyable stay.
Mary, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The WIZARD OF OZ room is amazing!!! 💚
John, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was overall great, it just smelled like cigarettes in a no smoking room, there were random clothes under the bed and the soap looked funky but overall beds were comfy, bathroom was nice and functions of sink and microwave were good.
Samantha, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good themed stay.

Good stay. Bare minimum amenities but great overall atmosphere. Love the OZ suite overall design. Complimentary toiletries could be improved. None were provided other than 2 tiny bars of hand soap. Still a family favorite.

Only complaint with our numerous stays is that the showers are Luke warm at best, water is never hot…..
Chauncey, 1-night trip

Bathrooms need a little upgrade. Also need a coffee pot and hair dryer.
Jerome, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Carpet was stained but under newer ownership and I believe they are trying to improve it
Jeff, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Room was filthy. Smelled horrible. Window didn’t shut nor lock. Air conditioning does not blow cold air. Room was unlocked when we got there. Dirt and grime on walls, ceilings and window. Hole in carpet. It was awful. Asked for a different room and we were told no because we used Expedia we would be charged again. Went for breakfast and every crockpot was empty. No pastries nor muffins were left. I had to ask for the food to be replenished. Front desk lady told me to call Expedia. Couldn’t find a phone number. I will only book direct from now on. Do not go to this hotel! It is horrible!
LARAE, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice stay

We wanted a place to overnight after the Paxico Jazz Fest. This motel was close and convenient. It was clean and comfortable. I would have liked a coffee maker for a cup of coffee in the morning. Checking in and out was easy. I don't know if they had wi-fi. There wasn't anything in the room about it. Wi-fi would have been nice.
Linda, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

We understand they are remodeling but our room was not. The room was clean, it was quiet and safe. The room and it's furniture was ok. AC struggled and the bed? It left a lot to be desired.
James, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The room we are in smells “wet” and musty. I’m assuming there was a water issue or something in the recent past. Besides the smell, the carpet between the beds by the night stand it pretty gross. But other than that, the property is clean.
Anthony, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Place was clean but noisy, shower did not have safety handles for getting in/out of tub & shower handle holder was broken so handle hangs in tub.
