Rock City Motel

I reserved this property for our employees to stay in while working in Minneapolis. My employees went to check in and the lady(owner) wouldn’t let them check in because she said the rate that ******* charged me wasn’t correct and she refuses to give rooms to me for that price. She was screaming at me. I asked her if I could pay the difference as there are no other properties in the town and she said no that she didn’t have any rooms. She hung up on me twice, very rude and wouldn’t even let me talk. I had to end up calling ******* to get refund and booking rooms in Salina for my employees. Will never even attempt to stay at this property again.

Filthy!!! Stained carpets, sheets, towels. Room reeked of tobacco. 4 spiders killed. Sure I missed more. Tried to give me rules for my certified service dog!!! Complete dump! Stayed long enough to take a shower to wake up and drive to a real motel …

Room was very clean as was the bathroom.Nice and quiet.

Carpets were dirty. Bathroom floor dirty.We left, won't stay there.

The lock on the door worked fine. The coffee maker work3d fine. The bed held us up no matter how hard we worked it over. She enjoyed the extra pillow under her. The bed is just the right height to stand beside. The walls must have great insulation as we got no noise complaints.

The Rock City Motel in Minneapolis, Kansas will do in a pinch. It is old and hasn't been updated since the 1960s I'd imagine. There is a punch-style desk phone, a chain lock, barely adequate window coverings and everything is orange. The pillows are like rocks and I could swear the sheets had been slept in. The walls were thin enough that we could hear the noisy outbursts and thuds against the wall. The BEST thing: good mattresses which led to an almost decent night's sleep. We had business in Minneapolis and the motels in neighboring towns were full for a holiday weekend. So, we gritted out teeth and went to sleep.

A good handyman for repairs and proper touchups would make a large difference. The room was clean although the repairs needed gave a different feeling.

Everything was fine

It was a good price and reasonably clean. The room was hot when I arrived. The A/C was noisy and was not cooling the room. I talked with the manager. She said I did not set it correctly. She said to set it to 61 to get it to cool to 75. It still did not cool properly. The A/C outside drain was plugged, so the air inside was musty. Also, the light over the bed was not working. I did leave a message with the tip for the cleaning person.
