Adequate and Safe Stay
This was an older, motel in a safe area. The room was clean. The shower had great water pressure. Front desk staff was very polite and welcoming. This was a good, safe place to be for a quick stay with a grocery store and restaurants nearby.

Make this your regular stay in Storm Lake.
The owner is always working to upgrade the property. It's not the fanciest in town, but it is economical, clean, quiet and easy to get to and from.

You get what you pay for…
Very bad WiFi, dirty, old, smelly, no free breakfast manager/owner made excuses about housekeeping and food and WiFi, I would stay clear unless you absolutely just need a place to sleep…

The room, stay and staff were very good. They would probably have better reviews if they didn’t advertise a breakfast or offered more choices of food.

Don’t Stay even though it’s the last place avail!
DISGUSTING!! Shower curtain had mold on it. Wall was falling apart in the bathroom
Nothing was dusted or wiped down.
Towels were old and disgusting! Chairs in the room, one was broken couldn’t sit in and the other was so dirty it was black in spots! Absolutely filthy!!!
If this is the last place available in Storm Lake go to a neighboring town!

That place is OK if you’re just looking for a place to just sleep and go run around or whatever but and take a shower it’s rated OK

Stay here unless you have money to burn.
Why pay more for a comfortable bed, in a clean quiet room? Budget Inn in Storm Lake is conveniently located to good restaurants and travel necessities.
